In 1991, Saddam Hussein had the fourth largest
army on the planet. Military analysts predicted
tens of thousands of American casualties.

3,000 Iraqi tanks and shattered a million-man
army with fewer than 300 coalition casualties.
In this video, we break down exactly how the
US military pulled off the most one-sided
victory of the 20th century.
