Why is persian gulf war cited by some as an event that fueled islamic extremism?
following the war, kuwait became a center of terrorist activity.
following the war, the united states refused entry to all muslim immigrants from the region.
islamic extremists did not exist prior to the persian gulf war.
islamic extremists resented u. s. intervention and influence in the middle east.

Islamic extremists resented u.s. intervention and influence in the middle east is why  persian gulf war cited by some as an event that fueled islamic extremism, after the soviet-afghan war many mujahedeens including bin laden beleived that they could harm usa in some way like the soviet union, they saw gulf war inttervention as spreading american infulecne over the middle eats despite the fact that it was saudi arabia which asked usa for intervention in kuwait

What’s the question here?
