...Before I start my argumentation I will give a brief summary of the six day war. The six day war was in 1967. It started with Egypt blocking the port of Eilat, a very important trading route for Israel, and mobilising the army in the Sinai desert. They did this after receiving a false report from the Soviet Union. Israel launched a pre-emptive assault on June 5th against Egypt, destroying their air force almost completely. Both the Syrian and Jordanian air forces encountered the same fate. Around June 8th Israel had overcome Egypt and Jordan forces, taking the Sinai desert and the west bank and east Jerusalem as new territory. Egypt and Jordan were defeated. The next two days Israel conquered the Golan Heights from Syria. On June 10th, Saturday...

...1967 THE SIX DAY WAR - AIR CAMPAIGN INTRODUCTION 1. The 1967 Arab-Israel six day war was the 3rd major struggle faced by the Israel in order to maintain its existence since it became a state in 1948[1]. The war can be considered as one of the most perfect military operations in the modern period. Surprisingly in just six days, the Israel Defence Force (IDF) managed to defeat the armed forces of the three major Arab countries and conquered Sinai, The West Bank and The Golan Height. The victories gave Israel more security from attack and secured a dominant military position in the region[2]. The combination of three major (Air, Land and Maritime) strike planned by the Israel has resulted the victory for Israeli. Even though the war involved three main elements, this paper will just focus on the air campaign which can be considered as the main factor for the victory of Israel and the failure for the Arabs’ allies. 2. The purpose of this paper is to provide a general brief on the background of the war and will focus more on the air campaign as the decisive factor that lead to the Israel victory. The flow of this paper will start with the genesis of the war which will provide the background of the six days war followed by the comparison of the Order of Battle (ORBAT). The comparison of ORBAT will give the summary of the assets involved and destroyed in the war and its effects on the outcome of the war. Series of the event from the first day of war until the...

...Essay 2 US and Soviet Involvement: Yom Kippur War While the United States and the Soviet Union never came into direct combat with one another during the Cold wWar, there were many instances in which the two states competition nearly led to global nuclear destruction. In the book “The World Was Going Our Way: The KGB and the Battle for the Third World”, written by Christopher Andrew and Vasili Mitrokhin, the authors bring up many circumstances where this has happened. One instance in which the Soviet Union opposed the United States indirectly while coming close to the brink of war, was the fourth Arab-Israeli War, much more commonly known as the Yom Kippur War. The purpose of this paper is to outline what happened in this war, and how the United States versus Soviet Union’s so called “cold war” actually drove indirect fighting and war between many other smaller nations such as Israel and a few Arab nations, and how these two superpowers were on the brink of an a out war. To be able to fully identify the role that the United States and Soviet Union played in this war, the history and background must be understood. This war was the fourth battle of the ongoing dispute today known as the Arab-Israeli conflicts that started in 1948 when the Jewish state of Israel was formed. In the earlier war known as the “Six Days War” in the year of 1967, Israel had captured the Sinai Peninsula from the state of Egypt and half of the Golan Heights from its neighbor Syria. “On June 19, 1967...

...Israel-Palestine war? TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT AANALYSIS THE CAUSES OF ISRAEL/PALESTINE CONFLICT: THE FIRST INTIFADA 1987-93 DIVIDING THE MAP THE 1948 WAR ZIONISM 1967/OCCUPATION THE ARABS, TERRORISM & SECURITY: “NO SOLUTION” THE WALL/FENCE/BARRIER DELEGITIMIZING THE STATEHOOD DECLARATION BY PALESTINE THE IMPACT OF SCARCE WATER RESOURCES ON THE ARAB-ISRAEL CONFLICT CAMP DAVID FAILURE THE ISRAEL-PALESTINE CONFLICT IS CENTRAL TO THE MILITANTS’ CAUSE Abstract The notion of this research essay is to discuss the causes of the Israel-Palestine war. The first priority of the paper is to address the war in detail by describing the war. Another perspective that the essay will take in answering the causes of the Israel-Palestine war is to address the period of the war and how it emerged. The Israel-Palestine war is also denounced as the primary consequence that has formed the Israel-Arab war. The nature of the war is somehow a contagious form of war as it is fundamental in the creation of the upheaval of the Arab states conflict. The essay will also discuss the causes in the different sequence. This will be done by stating which cause took place before the following cause emerged. The principal ideology of the essay is to come to a founding cause that resulted to the war preceding other causes. Therefore the research paper will discuss the causes of the Israel conflict with the aim of establishing the causes that formed the Israel-Palestine war. The emergence of...

...The reason for the start of the Yom Kipper war stems from the third Arab Israeli war known as the six-day war of 1963, which Egypt lost the territory of Gaza, Jordan lost west Jerusalem, and Syria ended up surrendering over Golan Heights. In 1967 after the six-day war tension between the countries and Israel’s size had doubled. The war ended on the sixth day by a United Nations-brokered ceasefire on June 10th, 1967. Fast forward to 1970 and Anwar el-Sadat is the new president of Egypt during an economical trough due to continuing conflicts against Israel. President Anwar Sadat surprisingly wanted peace with Israel and said “Let there be no more war or bloodshed between Arabs and Israelis. Let there be no more suffering or denial of rights....

...Sadat and the others were sitting; observing the cars and trucks draped with the countries flags and the soldiers marching in form, until six men leaped out of one of the military trucks and fired an attack on the stands in which the political heads sat. The six men turned out to be Muslim Extremists. Sadat was then taken to the hospital via helicopter with Mrs. Sadat but was claimed dead before any help could’ve been attained. After the attack occurred uprisings involving Islamic fundamentalists on Egyptian police departments in northern Egypt. “And the government functioned as the constitution provided...Mubarak upon whom had laid hands, was chosen without opposition” (“The Assassination of Anwar Sadat, Part II,” ADST.org). Unlike Nasser’s death( a heart attack) Sadat’s death didn’t really spark up any mourning by citizens, but was instead taken a some sort of relief. The citizens felt caged in the Arab world. No one was sure how Sadat...

...the Six Day War?” The Israeli death toll is nearly twenty times less than that of their opposition in the Six Day War. The Six Day War was fought in June, 1967. It was fought between Israel and a coalition of Arab forces including Egypt, Syria and Jordan. The United States and Soviet Union were both involved. The U.S. supported Israel and the U.S.S.R. supported the Arab forces. Countries like France and Great Britain were also involved but tried to remain neutral. The war was caused by the mutual distrust, mounting tension and military build up on each side. The war led to more conflict and tension in the Middle East. The Six Day War was caused by the history of war between Israel and Arab countries. Before the Six Day War, there had already been two wars involving Israel and a neighboring Arab country. Israel was involved in the Arab-Israeli War and the Suez Crisis. Israel won both wars, securing their spot in the Middle East. Israel also had numerous armed conflicts with Arab forces. In between major armed conflicts, there were terrorist attacks committed by Arabic. Groups like the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and Arabic guerrillas from countries like Syria, Egypt and Jordan committed these attacks. Another cause of the Six Day War was the mounting tensions on each side. Although Arabic guerrillas already conducted attacks on Israel, the formation of the PLO in 1964 resulted in an increased level of terrorism in Israel. In May, only one month before the war, Egypt...

...After World War II, tension growing between the United States and USSR during the late 1900’s became known as the Cold War. Dominating International affairs was one of the reasons for the Cold War, while weapons of mass destruction became known as one of the main concerns. The Cold War had two main superpowers: the United States and the Soviet Union. Neither Nation fought against each other, but they did fight for their beliefs throughout client states (Truman). On June 5, 1967 until the 10th of the same month there was a war called the Six Day War. Israel was supported by the United States to combat the Arab, including the countries of Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, and Algeria, because Israel saw them as a threat. The Arab countries surrounding Israel allied, and the war between Arabs and Israel began. The war provides a perfect...

... “After Etgar weighed the tomatoes and the cucumbers, his father would take up the bag, stick in a nice fat eggplant, unasked, and pass it over to Professor Tendler” (Englander 32). Shimmy would also give free products to the widows of Israeli soldiers who had died during battle. As the story progresses, Etgar's character changes, and he understands the true motivations behind his father's relationship with Professor Tendler. “Etgar wasn't one of the gray. He was a tiny, thoughtful, bucktoothed boy of certainties” (Englander 33). We have this image of Etgar as being a good innocent boy trying to understand why his father treated Tendler so good, considering Tendler's actions during the war. Tendler had murdered innocent people and had gave Shimmy such a beating while they were at war, that Shimmy still could feel the flattened bones on his face. “It was not his father's act of forgiveness but his kindness that baffled Etgar” (Englander 33). Etgar also tries to remind his father that “[He] was there too. [He had the same life as Tendler. And [he] never shot four men, even the enemy” (Englander 34). Etgar is like his father. He seems to disagree with Tendler's murders just as his father was against them when Tendler shot the four commandos. By the end of the story, Etgar is also treating Tendler with kindness at his fruit stand. He comes to...

...In 1899, a year after the Convention of Peking leased the New Territories to Britain, the British moved to establish control. This triggered resistance by the some of the population of the New Territories. There ensued six days of fighting with heavy Chinese casualties. This truly forgotten war has been thoroughly researched for the first time and recounted in lively style by Patrick Hase, an expert on the people and history of the New Territories. After brief discussion of British Imperialism in the 1890s and British military theory of that period on small wars, the heart of the book is a day-by-day account of the fighting and of the differences of opinion between the Governor of Hong Kong (Blake) and the Colonial Secretary (Lockhart) as to how the war should be fought. Dr Hase uses his deep knowledge of the people and the area and to give a full picture of the leaders and of the rank-and-file of the village fighters. New estimates of the casualties are provided, as are the implications of way these casualties are down-played in most British accounts. As a small war of Imperial Expansion, fought at precisely the high-point of Imperial thinking within the British Empire, The Six-Day War of 1899 is of interest, not only to historians of Hong Kong and China, but also to historians of the British Empire and the British Army, and to general readers interested in military, imperial and Hong Kong history.

...The Six Day and Yom Kippur Wars in Historical Context HARRY BOOTY, MAR 27 2012 THIS CONTENT WAS WRITTEN BY A STUDENT AND ASSESSED AS PART OF A UNIVERSITY DEGREE. E-IR PUBLISHES STUDENT ESSAYS & DISSERTATIONS TO ALLOW OUR READERS TO BROADEN THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE WHEN ANSWERING SIMILAR QUESTIONS IN THEIR OWN STUDIES. The confrontation between the Jewish state and its Arab neighbours is one of the most enduring and iconic conflicts that still persist today. Many scholars have argued that ‘for the best part of a century the Arab-Israeli conflict has been a complex problem with important ramifications for the international community’[1] – and this is in many ways the truth. Created out of the ashes of the Second World War under the awful spectre of the Nazi Holocaust, Israel as a nation has survived and prospered both politically and economically, in no small part due to Western – primarily French and American – assistance. The Arab states have correspondingly been opposed to America and the West based on this implied support for Israel and has therefore turned to different stratagems in an attempt to combat this alliance – such as balancing with the USSR during the Cold War and increasingly using its market power (derived from the various oil reserves in the region) to further its political aims in the two decades since the Iron Curtain fell. Into this context there were two major (albeit rather short) wars – the Six Day War of 5-10 June 1967 and the Yom...
