  Could be. Perhaps the author was inspired by it, but I doubt it,
because it's a totally different subject matter.

  BTW, Wikipedia says the 1990-1991 war was the 'Gulf War' and
'Operation Desert Storm' or, later, referred by some as the 'First Iraq
War'.

  I looked it up, because to me, the 'Iraq War' is the 2003 one.
Wikipedia agrees with me and so they should! :-)
