World War 3

[Eddie Jones]

"In 1967 Israel launch another full-scale war "the six days war" against Arab countries."

Who invaded whom?????

[Grunt]

The Six-Day War (Hebrew: מלחמת ששת הימים transliteration: Milkhemet Sheshet HaYamim, Arabic: حرب الأيام الستة transliteration: ħarb al-ayam as-sita), also known as the 1967 Arab-Israeli War, Six Days War, or June War, was fought between Israel and the nearby Arab states of Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, and Syria. The war was initiated by an Israeli response to Egyptian aggression, ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]} when Israel launched a preemptive attack against Egypt. ^{[5] [6] [7] [8]} Jordan in turn attacked the Israeli cities of Jerusalem and Netanya. ^{[9] [10]} At the war's end, Israel had gained control of the Gaza Strip, the Sinai Peninsula, the West Bank, and the Golan Heights. The results of the war affect the geopolitics of the region to this day.

Its funny, the Arabs and Jews are almost identical genetically. Both of Semetic origin.

Maybe they deserve each other.

Another point, all this Arab stuff about Jerusalem being their 'holy' city, has no basis in history. In fact Jerusalem 'holy sites' were razed several times in the past by Arab invaders. Archealogical digs have found evidence of this in digs going back to Crusader times.

Just another bit of spin to lend credence to one sides claims.

Also, I do remember that modern day terrorism, ie hijacks and blowing up passenger aircraft, was invented by that grizzled old terrorist Mr Arafat, he of the Nobel Peace prize. His party Fatah, was considered too moderate and Hamas got the Palestinian Government.

As I remember this whole current conflict started when Hezbollah kidnapped an Israeli soldier, from a base in Gaza.

Does seem a gross over reaction by Israel tho, bombing Lebanon back to the Stone Age, when the international community had only just finished paying to re-build after the Falangist/Muslim conflict and then Syria's depredations.

Gotta pity the ordinary Lebanese and their Government. The Lebanese Army is completely outgunned by Hezbollah, financed by the Mad Mullahs of Iran (those few left who aren't selling rugs in bankcruptcy sales here)and the family psychopath dynasty in Syria.

"The war was initiated by an Israeli response to Egyptian aggression,"

So maybe I should have said, "Who started it?"
