During the Iraqi invasion on Kuwait

My father was on his way to home with his friend and my brother who was 9 years old, In one of the Iraqi checkpoints, one of the Iraqi soldiers told my brother to get out from the car -When they say that it's obvious that they will take him- , My father opposed what they said, but they insisted! Then my father said to the Iraqi soldier : You can take me instead of him. They took my father to be one of the prisoners!! My brother and my father's friend returned, my brother ran to my mother to tell her about dad! My family lived a very difficult days without my father,Without any news of him!
After a period of time when George Bush sent the U.S. military to liberate Kuwait, they Helped Kuwaiti prisoners who were held in Iraq, The good point that my father was one of them, Finally, my father returned home.
  
Saddam's army killed a large number of Kuwaitis after tortured them. 

We will never forget our martyrs

I didn't mention the details and put images or videos of  Saddam's torture, I was not born during the invasion and when I was younger I saw many ugly videos and picture of the torture, I'm not strong enough to see his heinous crimes again.
You can search on Google and YouTube and you'll find plenty videos and pictures.

Kuwaiti Liberation Day

Liberation day -26 February- is an important day for each Kuwaiti. 

In 26 February 1991 Kuwait liberated from Iraqi invasion which lasted 7 months. In the early hours of August 2, 1990, more than 100,000 Iraqi troops moved tanks, helicopters and trucks across the border into Kuwait. Within an hour they reached Kuwait City, and by daybreak, Iraqi tanks were attacking Dasman Palace, the royal residence. The amir had already fled to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, but his private guard and his younger half brother, Sheik Faud al–Ahmad al–Sabah, had stayed behind to defend their home. The sheik was shot and killed!! and according to an Iraqi soldier who deserted after the assault, his body was placed in front of a tank and run over.
It was Saddam’s idea alone to invade Kuwait. He had gambled that he could get away with control the small rich country to help pay off debts. But he had misread the interests of the international community and the United States in a stable Middle East. After the invasion, Saddam defied orders to retreat and the U.N. imposed sanctions. After months of deliberations and with U.N. support, the United States and international Coalition forces launched a full–scale air and missile attack on Iraq on January 16, 1991. A ground assault followed a month later, and Saddam’s troops were quickly forced out of Kuwait. The United Nations declared an end to the war on April 11, 1991.
