b. terrorism
c. religion
d. anti-semistism

The correct option is A

The Invasion of Kuwait was a military operation carried out by the Iraq of Saddam Hussein against the Emirate of Kuwait, perpetrated between the 2 and 4 August 1990.

This sudden invasion, caused by a series of economic and territorial conflicts, resulted in the overthrow of Emir Yaber III, and the proclamation of the Republic of Kuwait, satellite of Iraq, which would be annexed weeks later. The act sparked international condemnation, and is the prologue to the Gulf War, which will be internationalized in early 1991 with the launch of Operation Desert Storm. Kuwait will eventually be liberated, but its oil wells will be burned after the Iraqi withdrawal.
