The Gulf War was about kicking Iraq out of Kuwait, after Iraq invaded. It had a wide support, both worldwide and within the Arab world. Saudi Arabia and Egypt actively participated.

Check the coalition drop down.
Iraq invaded Kuwait because economic collapse and oil disputes thinking the west won't go to war for this emirate.
Don't come citing the deep magic, I was there when it was written.
From your Wiki link:
_The invasion was primarily over disputes regarding Kuwait's alleged slant drilling in Iraq's Rumaila oil field…
The conflict's environmental impact included Iraqi forces causing over six hundred oil well fires and the largest oil spill in history until that point._
The 2003 Gulf war was about oil, that's why the US started it in the first place. It was also about defending the souverainity of an invaded country, that's why a lot of countries followed.
