Its 36 years since one of the most famous deceptions in history.
A deception the US deep state invented to justify the bloody first invasion of Iraq.
"Kuwaiti girl" Naira tearfully testified before the US Congress in October 1990, where she claimed to have witnessed horrific scenes in one of Kuwait's hospitals
"Iraqi soldiers stormed the hospital, threw newborn babies out of incubators, and left them to die on the cold floor!"
The story pushed the country to war. US senators passed a resolution to invade Iraq by a margin of five votes. Seven of them believed the girl's words.
Two months before the testimony, 17% of Americans supported US involvement in the conflict. Two months later, nearly half of Americans believed military intervention was necessary.
After the war ended, it was revealed that Naira was the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the US, and her story was fabricated by the PR agency Hill & Knowlton, hired by the Kuwaiti government. During the first Iraq war over 135,000 Iraqis were killed.
