Abstract
THE GULF WAR, which took place during January-February 1991, strongly affected the lives of Israeli civilians, The missiles that landed on t he home front were a threat to the entire civilian population, thus di fferentiating the Gulf War from prior Israeli wars (Danon and Shemer 1 991), This was similar to the London blitz during World War II (Scovil le 1942).
