Dude get it right killing civillians and never ending an occupation is not a war. But simply a war on unarmed civilians. You could never understand coz no one in your generation lived it but south africa understands.

Leonid brezhnev commented on the Arab bloc from the war of 1967 to 1973 as follows: "We gave them (Arab) the most sensitive equipment but they wanted to fight so we gave them twice as much tanks and armor, 3 times more artillery and even 2 times more air defense systems with anti-tank weapons. Equipped with more teeth than Vietnam, but when they lose they get angry and curse that we can't help them. Sadat also had to call and ask us to send troops to help them. We said no to them they said we were traitors.
Americans ,British and French did help Israel in 1967 Six Day War.
Realities of war. When you lose a war, you lose resources and land.
nature is cruel and so is war.
Don't make promises your armies cannot keep. When you lose a war, results are bad.
They lost those things before the war though....
That's more why war happens. Everyone is just eyeing the neighbours stuff because they want their resources and land. But in the end war is pretty useless. Especially nowadays with a world shared economy. But some people still just want to make war because they are on their cosy offices pointing at a map thinking it's a family fun game of Risk. Also because of stupid hatred based on some idiotic religion about some sky daddy they never met or a fantasy book nobody knows who wrote.
Thats a world nature. Only urselves to blame for losing
I've read several books about this war. The authors had different opinions, but my main takeaway is that the Arab Cold War was the main cause. Arab leaders were pushing each other to war while knowing that none of them had the strength to actually win. Their main goal was always to gain more domestic popular support and to become the leader of the Arab World. The distrust and lack of coordination basically declared their defeat before the first salvo was fired.
Obviously Israel is innocent, except...one ethnic cleansing, the Absentees law of 1950 and the massacres between 1948 and 1967.
Very well put. On paper the Arab nations had the numerical edge, but troop for troop especially in leadership and improvisation in the fields EVERY Arab country was outclassed.
I have multiple books on this from both sides, I really have to hunker down and read them.😅
dont forget that the US carried the F out of isra*l during every war, yep, now u gotta censor your comments to avoid it getting deleted by TouYube botz
IKR.
What is it that someone once said: Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Would you say that D-Day was caused by US/UK Cold War against the German people? No. All of Israel was occupied land for 21 years at that point, created by Jewish terror groups and mass violence and murder. So I wonder why the Arabs were not happy, and why the US was not happy about German occupation of France.
This is the simplest way to define Quality vs Quantity
The Israeli's almost had more troops.
Population wise Israel is much smaller than those countries 😂
The arab world IS the ocean's froth after all.
@@UCSMJCKA I wonder why, definitely not because Israel is a young country with barely much land?

Egypt didn’t want Gaza back when they got the Sinai back 😩
You can watch the " infidels", Prager u docu. Their was an interview to the daughter of one of the founder of Islamic Jihad
Because Gaza is for palastinans people not for Egyptian people, also president Sadat had a seat for the palastinans leaders, but they refuse to come, if they had come we wouldn't be in this situation right now, the war in Gaza i mean
Do you blame them
@@kennethrobertson8719 no..
yes in 74
Remember guys, Egyptians said they humiliated Israel in this war.
That's why they lost the Sinai
They always blame others for their own faults. It's ridiculous how we Kaffirs have to feel bad for them for being noobs at wars they started even if Arab sides had upper hands on paper
No, they claim this on 1973 war. Big difference. Anyways, Israel won every single war
That was the 73` war
Eventually they won on the surprise attack but lost the wR also part of north egypt.@tonysnow759
One overlooked reason for the Israeli success is this, a common mistake made by many European armies: no one in the IDF leadership said the fighting would be over by Christmas. 🤣
France :Dinner time, it's holiday
Israel - you forgot to deliver "Our boats" we "PAID" for it, it's "Ours".

The actual comment section: "This comment section is going to be interesting"

Haha true
interesting!
Comments are irrelevant.
Its already part of history.
Just from the comments u can see why the Israeli win and the arabs lose. When the Israelis lose, they study and learn from their mistakes so they don't repeat them. When arab armies lose they deny they lost or make up excuses. If they ever actual accepted their loses and study how they screwed up, they would be much more effective. It's like the Einstein quote - 'Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
True but a lot of what happened was no trust and loyalty. They’re constantly getting bought out and out spied. So the trust issues just grow. Including what’s going on today in Gaza. But warfare literally changes so much and Israel does not have the future generations supporting them.
The people of Israel have brains!

@@taliabraver Brains but no hearts. All the children dying and starving in Gaza is unacceptable.
@@claffy2 The people in Israel have the biggest hearts.Hamas has no heart.Starts a war with no thought for the people.
For everyone stating that Israel got stuff from the United States, I want to point out that the Arab states got supplies from the Soviet Union.
And that the Soviet Union also had fighter pilots in the war, directly having military personnel involved in the fighting.
USA offered to help israel but israel declined.
Israel fought with tanks in the 1945-50s that were upgraded in Israel
But no airplanes, as the video tells.
@@lisakeitel3957 French Mirage fighter jets
I don't want to be an Israel shill but it's also worth noting Israel had a lot of its equipment from the French and British, not mainly the Americans
Plus, the Americans weren't even aware of Israel's pre-emptive strike until it already happened as far as I know
From this video I was surprised by the amount of info Israeli intelligence got to ensure that the six day war was a success. An Israeli officer posing as a former SS officer for intel purposes has to be peak dedication.
Look up Eli Cohen. Don't F with Mossad - you just don't know who/where they are.

That shows the difference between going in with a plan and just going in mad.
Noted.
"I see red when I'm mad." The results.
I think an under-appreciated reason for the strength of the IDF is that they very much take officers leading seriously, in most militaries around the world, being an officer means you let the enlisted take it on the chin, which in turn leads to a degree of disrespect and distrust, whereas in the IDF it's expected that officers put themselves in harms way over the enlisted. Leading by example.
The most important reasons actually are: Israel attacked first and launched a suprise air raid. Most Arab leaders didn't have much interest in war and didn't expect war to happen.
This war was absolutely devestating not only to the affected Arab countries but also to the well unified greater Islamic world. It is not a coincidence that terrorism did not exist in the Islamic world before this war.
@@iliashdz9106they were interested in the war and terrorism has existed before the war
@@comet_box9159 they were not interested in the war as the video explains and terrorism did not exist in the Arab world before the war except for maybe one very specific and unimportant case back in the middle ages

@@comet_box9159 Vikings??? Please re-read my comment again carefully this time.
I recall looking at the Golan Heights from Tiberias (great bars there BTW). I then realized why that piece of terrain was so important for Israel to hold.
Could you enlighten us as to why?
@@neptune3569 Tiberias sits on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Directly across on the other shore rises the Golan Heights. It was easy to see that, from the top of the Golan, an enemy force had complete dominance over area below & could easily range every bit of territory with direct & indirect fires.
@@morgan97475 As shown in the Yom Kippur War, if you have the Heights, you have pretty much a clear path straight to Damascus.
Isn't that the point of this video? @@neptune3569
Thank you. Reading it in history books they tell you all that but in alot more fancy words and it's not easy to understand sometimes.
Despite this lesson, they still insist on poking the bear and then crying foul when they're getting their butts kicked
yet Israel is not allowed to kick their butts entirely and drive them home to Arabia, because of western fake morality.
the bear who cries each time we are getting wiped out lol
Except it's not really a bear. I mean 8 months vs. 6 days? Either Israel isn't as formidable as you were brainwashed to believe. Or, the Arabs never really cared/ fought as you were brainwashed to believe also. Israel hasn't faced a real enemy until now. 3 non state actors are putting up a bigger fight than 3+ armies ever tried.
Dude get it right killing civillians and never ending an occupation is not a war. But simply a war on unarmed civilians. You could never understand coz no one in your generation lived it but south africa understands.
@@xLeah.13xIf you truly believe that israel is genoociding Palestinians, i dare you to look at statistics of population of Palestine and Cambodia during pol pot reign. What you'll see is a massive population drop in cambodia and what you'll see in palestine is a continuos rise of population.
One thing that I noticed in the Arab-Israeli wars is how easily Arabs gave up, especially in the 1948, 1953 and 1967 wars.
I mean....im no israel shill, but the arab armies were nearly defeated in full. israel pulled a massive victory, it was the arabs war to lose, and they lost spectacularly.
Allah willed it, right? 😇
Kind of inevitable when you lose your whole air force in one day
yeah, funny how being funded and supplied by foreign superpowers does that
@@dogsbecute Sure but considering their big population and their "small" human losses, I thought they could have continue fighting a bit longer.
Closing the Straits of Tiran, an internationally recognized open waterway was an absolute act of war. Egypt may have thought it was just posturing, but it started the war. That it was surprised, is entirely on them.
Bingo
They had also ordered the UN out and said the truce was over
Israel just managed to have a quicker “draw” similar to the Franco Prussian war
@@jonathanwilliams1065that's true, during the Korean gulf war , SK seek helped from UN ( Allied countries like Philippines) to stand with them.UN peacekeepers have the right to push back the other side forces if they enter the drawn territorial line.
the straights had been closed between 48 and 56 and were only opened after 56 when israel ATTACKED eygpt with the british and french for colonial ambitions this was only stopped when america stepped in and eygpt had to accept a unfair peace deal anyway in 67 all eygpt did was go back on the peace deal also just because you have a just cause for war doesn’t mean you should use it israel was a nuclear power at the time the only reason they invaded was not out of fear but the same reason as always to steal more land
@@sploster938 so basically you’re saying Egypt had the right to do whatever it wanted to Israel
Oh, and what part of Nasser ended the truce do you not understand?!
Imagine being an Israeli soldier back then and taking back your ancestral holy city...simply incredible.

Will wait patiently for this one
Yom Kippur: The war where the Arabs realized that they could use the US' addiction to their oil to make the US try to play middle ground, while they took more and more. Also the war that only ended because the US and USSR were making 'put 'em up' gestures at each other, iirc.

Eli Cohen was an absolute boss. Eli is pronounced like "ellie" btw. It'a short for Eliyahu.
When Muslims conquered the territory Palestine in 634 A.D.:
"Ha! We have taken this land from Rome by the sword, and it is ours!"
After Arab states lost the 1948 and 1967 wars that they instigated:
"No fair, guys! You gotta give it back to us! We call take-backs!"

True, but time has not stopped yet. What was taken by force will be taken back by force. As you can see, the Zionists are surrounded by hundreds of millions of Arabs and Muslims, so it is only a matter of time 😉

Damn, King hussein had a way with words, that was a haunting description.
He also played in Star Trek The Next Generation, for a few seconds. A series he loved, so he eventually talked his way into a role there.
Unfortunately there's some weird US rule that you must be a union member to be allowed to speak in tv series, so his role was silent, but how many people get to appear in their favourite TV series.
....And the fact that a series as positive as The Next Generation was his favourite, tells you something about the sort of man Hussein was, in a region where most people spend their days powermongering, remaining at a standstill, thinking back and hating one another.
I feel so bad for King Hussein. My man just wants to be an Arab monarch and grill (run his country and create a dynasty) but he’s always getting dragged into these wider Arab conflicts.
He gets pressured into these insane agreements like the Khartoum conference and the continual refugee status of the Palestinians.

Old guy here. I don’t have a dog in this fight, but it seems to me, if your nation is surrounded by hostile countries who are fanatatical about destroying your sovereignty, you tend to take your own security extremely high importance. On top of that, you fight like your life and the lives of your citizens depend on it for your survival, because it DOES!
Extremely well put.
It always seemed like the rhetoric of the Arab nations never matched with them seriously trying to build effective army/structure. Not just Jordan either but every nation around Israel.
The one time Egypt actually did long term effective planning to fight they only managed to hold their own and get a stalemate more or less in the Yom Kippur War.
Compared to their previous wars against Israel this was considered a huge victory.
Problem is they never should’ve had that “nation” in the first place. It was created by westerners at the expense of the people who lived there for past 1,500 years, and who continue to be repressed and ‘cleansed’ by the Israeli state.
Yup. Same reason Rhodesia and South Africa had such disproportionately powerful militaries. You have to, or else
There's one side that claims to be experiencing genocide.
And there's one side that has experienced actual genocide.

I've actually been trying to look for accounts on the amphibious landings on the Sinai and where the Panzer IVs in the Syrian army saw service. I learned several years ago that they had these panzers in this war, but couldn't easily look for sources due to my lack of storage of books of really any kind, and not knowing where to look for more in depth analysis.
As for the amphibious landing, I only learned about that a couple months ago. I was hoping to learn more about this, but previous reasons plus needing to focus on my engineering classes in college have curbed this unfortunately.

There is a point worth mentioning that i think played a major role in the inability of the Egyptian army to repel and outmaneuver the Israelis which is being every Egyptian officer who is intelligent and might pose a threat to Nasser and Amer was “promoted” to become an ambassador, a great example of this was the chief of staff during the ‘73 war, he was “promoted” to become an ambassador in the UK just so he doesn’t any danger to the rule of Sadaat.
One of the major reasons egypt lost was that nasser had sent more than half of the army to yemen numbering about 150,000 in what is called egypt's vietnam
Underlying (tactical) causes for the Arab defeat had a large amount to do with very bad leadership from the top down, and tactical inflexibility of the troops.
A lot of the battles can be broken down to Arab troops doggedly trying to defend a particular position, but not reacting when IDF troops would maneuver around them and start to roll them up from the rear, flank, or a advantageous firing position the Israelis stormed.
Great video I hope you’ll cover the other Arab-Israeli wars especially the Yom Kippur War
I like how the video is 6 days ago.

Egypt and Jordan did not control the territories, they added them into their counties. No one in a clear mind thinks that they wanted to create a state. They wanted to add more territories. Jordan wanted ocean access.
Most channels that cover this topic are either misinformed or are trying not to cause conflict in the comments, or lose sponsors, so they say Palestine is equally justified or that the Levant should be split, but those others are just saying that to avoid conflict.

Israel never ceases to amaze me.
Seriously, the fact that it has survived a hostile neighborhood since 1948, is impressive.
It is definitely a talented nation for sure but even so, that alone doesn't explain why Israel has survived with a small population, few resources and fewer friends.
because they’re open-minded, think outside of the box and priorities formal education.
Talented alone isn’t enough and overrated. Kudos to Israel 🇮🇱💙
Even back then, seizing the initiative in battle matters. It's why the US always tries to turn every war into an offensive at first, with great success; followed by years of attrition until our politicians dust off their hands and say "okay, time to go home", making the entire conflict for nothing.
Israel should never have given back land to its enemies who sought to exterminate them. Now they are stuck fighting in more avoidable wars.
However, just as back then; they will win. Their commanders know how to seize the initiative; even after decades of politicians signing their own nation away..
Then You wonder why Egypt and Jordan have totally refused to go against Israel ever again.
Some years ago, I asked an Arab why Israel, which was so outnumbered by the Arabs, easily defeated them. He said that these wars were the works of the Arab leaders, but that the common people didn't have their hearts in these wars. It was the leaders, not the common people, that wished to destroy Israel, but it was the common people who were forced to fight the wars and they really didn't want to fight. They just wanted to go about their own business.
Nonsense.
The Arab attacks were uncoordinated and Israel enjoyed colossal amounts of military aid from the US and other western nations. Troop morale didn’t have much to do with the outcome.
@@_ArsNova thats exactly why israel never ever attack iran
Whoa regular people being chewed up and spat out by irresponsible leaders while other idiots try to paint entire populations as savages??
@_ArsNova Surrounded, outnumbered by bigger, stronger nations with more population.
Even if the IDF was armed to the teeth your still facing multiple Armies on 3 different fronts, they had tanks, artillery, Jets, so let's not make it out like they were fighting with sticks and rocks.
IDF also had to be trained to use all these weapons, combined arms tactics, leadership especially was critically important. Israel had it at the top and mid levels, the Arab nations didn't. That's one of the reasons they surrender to smaller forces consistently.
Arab Generals, Iraq / Egypt / also tend to treat their soldiers like expendable trash. Lower enlisted pay is often stolen by officers, Russian style.
15:20 There wasn't any confusion, the American sailors on the ship alerted the Israeli planes many times that they were American, with flags and such, and they still continued the attack
They should've realized that modern jet fighters work better when in the air, but I'm sure they'll make a better account of themselves next time..
Arabs were embarrassed
Imagine the humiliation those desert habibis had :)
Woah
I was a little kid back in the 1960s ans remember everyday watching the news all war in middle east Vietnam war
Usual arab disfunctionality...
Depends on the period. There was a time where the arab world was far more advanced than Europe. Things change and will keep changing probably.
@ 15:40 The Egyptians would have hung him if they had known how badly Nasser was lying to them.
Your announcer needs to speak slower to give us time to take in the information he is saying and fully understand it. Otherwise, this is an informative video.
Wars do nothing but beget more wars 😢. Civilians pay the largest price in all wars.
Mirages vs Migs... not even a contest...
You have no idea what you are talking about HAHAHAHA
@@hunterfabio he is right. it was mostly mirage 3s vs mostly mig-19s. there is no comparison.
You didn't mention the Egyptian War in Yemen! Tgey had their best troops fighting their
Had to watch 2 unskipble ad in the beginning and after 1 min of watching the video, got 2 new unskipble ad 😡 this is becoming ridiculous
We need a video about war of 6 october.

EXACTLY
What was the land called before the Zionists moved in?
@@nercksrulelol keep fooling around.
Great Video! Will there be a future video about how Kurdistan almost became a country/why Kurdistan didn't become a country after WW1? It's a huge part of modern Middle Eastern history.
Britain gave lands to the people who seek to become independent, maybe Kurds didn't asked the British that's why their region is still under "Turkeye- war, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq..
Their is no kurdistan
@@bella-hi4oo turks have never bowed to colonialism muslim turks are and independent people
Kurdistan is in iran
@@demirdemir2227Turkeye was an invader too.." Istanbul", eh Constantinople..Turkeye was or still bombing Kurdistan..
@@demirdemir2227 Their is no Palestinian too..
Israel had more troups than all arab nations together. After the surprising attack, they had also the air superiority. The arab nations at that time were big on maps, but small in numbers.
It's a bit insane that people protestested for Nasser to *stay* after loosing the war. I guess public support for him was *that* strong.
The comment section ain't so bad :)
