- On this week’s History of Israel Explained, things get serious with the outbreak of the Yom Kippur War. Just six years after the stunning victory of the Six-Day War, the 1973 war meant near disaster for Israel.
Unlike in 1967, when Israel could do no wrong, in 1973, the country was caught off guard (sort of) and unprepared. As a result, Israel faced massive casualties and it’s very existence was called into question.
So how did this happen? Why didn’t Prime Minister Golda Meir manage to pull off the same kind of preemptive tactics as in ‘67, who was to blame for the mess, how desperate did Moshe Dayan become, and just how bad did things get for Israel?
Watch the first part of our look at the difficult days of the Yom Kippur War to find out and make sure to keep watching next week to see how events unfolded.

Golda called President Nixon two days into the war. She told him if the US didn’t help, Israel would cease to exist. He told her that, as a child, his mom would read Bible stories and one night he remembered her pausing and she told him, “Richard, if you ever have a chance to save the Jewish people, promise me you will do so.” Nixon then said, “Golda, for the first time, I know why I became the President of the United States of America.”
ياه أما قصة معبرة بصحيح
Nice story..but at that time Israel had nuclear weapons..
Usa aid came after Israel step into Africa 100 km from Cairo..
But truly i believe in that story ❤
God bless 🙏🙏🙏 Israel

Despite the fact that there was no Israel when he was a child
I’m not a Jew but this gives me the chills , Israel is Great at warfare , my respects 🇮🇱
🇮🇱❤🇬🇪
Shut up. You don't know the truth about the apartheid israel
Israel is great at everything
User, they have to be or there may Isreal may end end and the jewish dream will be over.
It's actually unbelievable how they keep managed to win against much bigger enemies from all sides.
The American side of the war is finally making sense to me, and I haven’t even finished the video, thanks!
Did you check out part 2?
@@UNPACKED ...Not yet... But I'll add that to my watch later too, and I always watch my watch later eventually.
My grandfather was in this war!!!!!!
Such a nice thing to know ❤
Hope he survived to tell the story! Beautiful thing to know indeed!
Which side?
Same
@@meniweizmann644 Israelis side
I remember this war as a Jr high school student. The United States supplied Israel weapons and went on nuclear alert. General Ariel Sharon attacked across the Suez canal cutting of Egyptians. Soviets arranged cease fire to prevent Egyptians destruction.
This war changed things, the world was never the same.
It changed for you. As Sinai is still under Egypt's control
@@midothunderstorm7738 you can keep it
@@bennydigilov6670 then why try to take it in 1956 and 1967 ? Naugty Zionists 😁
Peter Nader to prove a point
Egypt’s destruction? Lol 😂 If you think israel can get to Cairo and control it you are dreaming. They couldn’t control suez, a city 75% of its population evacuated little alone take control of one of the largest cities on the planet. If Israel sets foot into Cairo that would have been the end of Israel in the same way nazi Germany ended when they went into Moscow. And the Israeli generals know that very well which is why they pleaded the Americans and Soviets for a ceasefire 5 times. You can’t fight a country 10x your population in its own capital city and expect to be Victorious.
I love the picture of Golda sitting back at her chair in private, smoking a cigarrete and looking out the window. I wish that my pressident was this worried about his citizens as in Israel, greetings from Argentina !!!!
He is. Macri os great
Greetings Argentina
she knew that if we lose this war she won't survive as well
Shut up. You don't know the truth about the apartheid israel

Also Israel: I like those odds!
Huh? Yom Kippur War was a disaster, with over 3,000 Israeli casualties....

Ahmad T
Everyone in Israel have equal rights, if you don’t believe me, come visit and see for yourself.
I probably can’t do the same in Arab states because a Jew can’t walk free without being killed.
Talking about apartheid...
@@ahmadt2283
Anyone supporting islam is also supporting apartheid which is in the core of Islam and is the most refined form of apartheid.
The quornic laws concerning Dhimmis أهل الذمة can be a school for the most vile forms of apartheid.
It is said that the best defence is attack and the best way muslims have for diverting people's attention away from Islamic apartheid is smearing it on Israel. Have good day.
In my youth I always thought Israel is wrong and arabs were right. Now I understand and I admire Israelies for their endurance and intelligence.
in my opinion there is no right or wrong side, only interest and power, look at some conflict in your country you will 100% finde simular conflict to this one in history of your country
every country was raised on mass killing both civilians and military so every country is raised on crimes, only what matter is interest and how strong you are, so this Israely vs Arab conflict is the same as every conflict over land, across the whole world.
bob doe actually I think there is more leftist media than "zionist media" man. So maybe you are brainwash too.
No right or wrong. The strongest and smartest surviving. I know for a fact, Egypt been always there since the inception of history. So the question is, who’s surviving and been surviving?
@@waliky2002 surviving? Survival mode is so 12th century
outline Accoding to my information, Israel was founded 1948 and not in the 12th Century.
IN GD WE TRUST...IDF...IAF..And the enemy is gone.
Cringe
thank you for your effort to make such episode but let me tell you something from my readings about this, israel didn't ever think Egyptians would fight, even the Egyptian crowd them selves didn't believe it. Ashraf Marwan aka the angel was mainly an Egyptian agent and was also a part of the strategic decite of the Egyptian side.
So well explained! Great video! Eretz Yisra'el!
Jordan: "bruh....wtf did I just tell you"
Arrogance, no israeli thought the threats were actually true thats why after the yom kippur war the population called for the government to change.
Traitors
I got your back Israel - God
LOL
Not God but antichrist
God don't stand with child killers and murderers
@Rick K Last time I checked TV israeli soldiers were invading houses to arrest 7 years old kids not the other way around
@@muhammadfadzilbinnormahaza9986
The God that you believe in is the antichrist.
Newly released information shows that the Israeli PM and Cabinet knew that the war was coming, but decided not to act first because of potential foreign condemnation.
What still unfortunately happens today, Israel is being threatened daily but can’t react because of th UN
The new Golda film says that the electricity was turned off to their detection systems. She took the blame.
The Lord fought the battle❤🕊
Who saved Israel in that dark time? It wasn't the politicians. It wasn't the generals. It sure as hell wasn't the Americans, who actualy contributed to the crisis. It was G-d and the Israeli people that saved Israel. We stood and fought and with G-ds help we prevaled. It breaks my heart to see we keep forgeting that hard lesson.
and Eli Cohen
It was a well trained bunch of kids with a nation to loose , who held back two armys . No Gods and No Generals !
very interesting video
Lesson Learned: Never let the enemy catch you with your pants down.
He might get hit with a very very big sausage
Israel must never again relax, there are always someone in the region ready to attack :-S
Shame on America and Isreal
Israel set the standard for tank warfare in the Yom Kippur war.
"Would Israel survive the war?" I'm skeptical but I think that's a yes. We'll just have to wait for part 2.
haha
They won, because Israel still exists
@@thelordsofgaming2153 that's the funny part
Golda should have gone with her instincts and not been caught off guard
Yeah well hindsight is 20/20
I agree intuition is always right, people around us are usually wrong.
Aaaaaah! Where's part 2????
Don't worry, part two is coming this Thursday! New episodes are released every Thursday.
Jerusalem U Good!. I was watching with my family on Yom HaZikaron last night.
Btw, can you do a video on who serves in Israel’s army? Jews, Druze,some Muslims and Haredim starting to serve. Explain the exemption for yeshiva students and religious women, Muslims. Explain National service, Lone Soldiers, and the various options in service.
I think it would be interesting to highlight how the army interconnects such a small, family oriented country (a la Start-Up Nation style).
You could also discuss the various arms embargoes on Israel in the early years and why we’ve had to develop the best weapons in the world. Rather than appearing war-hungry, Israel is ensuring its survival. Talk about the tech developments that have begun in the military and moved into general tech advancements for the world (PillCam, etc)
Go get ‘em! You guys are great!!!
Where's part two ?
Wasn't The Yom Kippur War in 1973 and not 1970?
Yes, that's when we say it is - "That was the scene in Israel in the fall of 1973, when the Yom Kippur war broke out..." (00:16)
1970 was the War of Attrition - "the lesser known War of Attrition during 1969 and 1970." (00:51)
The Bar-Lev line was a fortifications were literally made of...sand. The Egyptians used water cannons to cut through them.
we won at the end
@@giggsg165 you lost all the lands
@@the3rdmaster311 Nope.The pre-1967 border with Egypt was restored in return for the 1979 peace atreaty.Israel returned most of the Golan Heights and all of the west bank.
Robert:
On Oct.6,1973,the Bar Lev Line was weakly held by 453 men facing an initial assault wave of 10,000 men.Those are odds of 22:1.No army anywhere could have held off an invasion against such odds.
Sand? Soviet military experts claimed that we needed a nuclear bomb to demolish it
Israel did not almost fall. Arabs made a little progress, and remember whole Sinai belonged to Israel back then. Arabs were not close to borders of Israel today. Anyway, they were stopped and defeated from the 5th day until the end of the war.
That was the hardest Israeli war
Me I fucked many Egyptian women when I visited sharm el sheikh. They loved my kosher salami
@Me I can see that you don't know anything at all about the 1973 war.On Oct.14,1973,the IDF destroyed 255 Egyptian tanks for loss of 5 of their own.Gen.Mamoum,commander of the 2d Egyptian Army was so "traumatized" by the experience,he had a heart attack.
Thank god the Egyptians & Isrealis finally made peace. Yes ultimately the isrealis survived like they have done so many times before but the Egyptians proved they were not pushovers to be ignored, they used ingenuity and skill in breaching the sand dunes at the suez. I remember the treaty signed in 1979. Now Egypt & Isreal have been much more secured since.
Egypt triumphed in the glorious October war of 1973, and we defeated Israel despite the unprecedented support of America for Israel
As the Dayan predicts said before the war, Sharm el-Sheikh without peace is better than peace without Sharm el-Sheikh.

@@user-ny9kc3vv6q You did not defeat Israel, Israel is still the victor in Yom Kippur War. Egyptians attacking Israel during the Jewish holiest day is a cowardly attack. In the end, the Egyptians just defeated the sand, not the war. Israel is the victor.
Viva Israel from Greece
El 6 de octubre de 1973, los paises árabes en su conjunto, por el norte, por el sur y oeste, a la misma hora decidieron invadir Israel, todos simultáneamente penetraron sus fronteras, sabiendo q Israel se encontraba en un día sagrado, orando en sus iglesias, (Sinagogas), nadie se esperaba el cobarde ataque. Pero Dios es grande y vino en auxilio de su pueblo.
2560 Israeli casualties, 15000 Egyptian casualties and 4000 Syrian. Despite a rough start, it is a historical fact that Israel won the war. Never again did an Arab conventional army ever mess with Israel again in an all-out war.
You need to read history again man. The Egyptians won the war and took the land back from Israel after teaching Israel a lesson not to think about attacking Egypt again. Israel is crying over the 1973 war until today. Wake up
@@ahmedh5366Egypt didn't get the land until 1979 through a peace treaty between begin and sadaat. Egypt lost and they needed a treaty to reclaim the land. It's embarrassing how Arabs attack Israel in masses and still loose wars. Don't you feel ashamed that you're more in number yet get conquered by a few jews all the time ?
You can thank Kissinger for containing the struggle and preventing a nuclear war. That man brought more peace to this world than a thousand self righteous liberals.
he should be tried as a war criminal.

@@kidagave1 I'm we aware about the events at the end of the war, but no one can deny the achievement done at the beginning of the battle, I would like to think that the battle had done it's objective given that the lost land was returned, however, the third Egyptian army was surrounded by the end of the war and the Egyptians are mostly aware of events that took place at the begining, and the end of the war is ignored, we actually need to do like you guys and investigate the whole events good and bad and the Egyptian people should know the full facts about what happened, and what led to the events at the end of the battle
Egypt has the potential to be much more than what it is currently, and hopefully one day we will compete with you guys in education and economy democracy.
mahmoud mohmed I only wish the Egyptian people well and hope they prosper. That said, making sure your government doesn’t ever get taken over by an Islamist like Morsi will be the key
kidagave1 👍
@@mahmoudmohmed4787 Finally an Egyptian with a reasonable understanding of what happened in that war.It is undeniable that Egypt did well in the first 2 days of the war.Later Egyptian offensives did not turn out so well-to put it mildly.However,Egypt fought well defensively,especially at the so-called "Chinese Farm" , throughout the war.And that has to be acknowledged.
This format and it´s pace is too fast for me. Maybe it would be better to reduce speed and talking speed ;)
Egyptians haven't got a clue about that war. They crossed the Canal and dug themselves into the sand along 15 km wide ribbon, under the protection of their antiaircraft umbrella. Their armour was destroyed when they left that umbrella and moved towards Israel. Israel entered Egyptian territory and not the other way around. The Egyptian 3rd Army was encircled and was saved by Kissinger, who also became the architect of the peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. Syria lost more territory. The Russians supplied Egypt. The US supplied Israel. The nuclear weaponry of Israel was ready to hit both Syria and Egypt.
@Me
Israel lost the diplomatic war.
@Me Your tears are delicious.
@Me The Egyptian objectives were to wipe Israel out of existence or at least refuse to ever acknowledge it's right to exist. They officially failed at both at Camp David when they signed a peace treaty with a different Israeli prime minister 5 years later. They swallowed their pride accepting that as the only way to get Sinai back. Otherwise, Israel would still possess it even today.
@Me
Resume the war? Hohohooo with a bottle of rhum.
@Me
You signed a peace treaty to get the Sinai back. This was our condition and you said yes. We were in your territory. You were not in ours. Difficult to accept that reality?
Well donet
The Egyptian people were so happy with their "victory" in getting Sinai back through a peace treaty recognizing and making peace with Israel that they assassinated their leader Sadat hahaha. The war was in '73, Egypt didn't get Sinai until '78 and they did not hold it militarily. Israel got what they wanted, they traded a piece of land they never wanted to keep for Egypt no longer being a threat. Now Israel have absolutely nothing to worry from Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon. None of them want to mess with Israel.

modern smooth bore have much more firepower than the 88 the tiger used. While the optics and aiming of this weapon were far superior to the t34, modern tanks especially the gob smacker the israelis used was not available during ww2 though they did have a smaller gob smacker.
Eh it’s practically become a stock image for a tank here, tell someone to draw a tank and they will more than likely draw a tiger

So you attacked a tiny Jewish nation on their most sacred day ( the biggest dick move ever). You lost seven times more soldiers than the Israelis did. Lost significantly more artillery and armory, You didn't gain any new territory. Your president was so terrified of another war with Israel that he begged Israel to sign a peace agreement but you still considered this a victory just because it wasn't as a humiliating total loss like your war in 1967. You truly are a pathetic nation.

You actually lost that war, as you usually do..
@@user-lz7ug2li4e well we have the land now so
soldier0fsalvation
You’re spinning this as a victory even though it was a shameful defeat.
The only reason we took Sinai was to give it back for peace.
Roee Musai israel never give back land, If you say the truth, then why did Israel refused to give back the land for peace when Nasser and sadat asked for that after 1967 ? The truth is that you realized that to face Egypt you will need to pay a huge price every time and you will need a huge US military aid so you accepted giving back land to end the story
Bless Israel 🎉❤
God Bless Israel.
Don't let your guards down. Stay alert.
Just recently i listened to a podcast about this war, and what was most interesting to me, was how in Egypt it's taught as an Egyptian victory and all that.
Apparently Anwar Sadat needed it so much, he wasn't concerned with history too much...Not the first one and definitely not the last.
No different than how the Soviets were taught they won WWII all alone
@@wernerfoerster3666 Pretty much, only the Soviets really did take on a much larger percentage of the axis powers in the European theater, so you can say there is a bigger slice of truth there...
@@iDarkBladei2
Except WWII was not the war of the European theater. Plus its always under-credited the help of the US in that particular theater in helping defeat the Germans
@@wernerfoerster3666 I actually thought it was always over credited, but i guess it depends on the people you're asking. Anyhow, there's no doubt that without the US, the UK'S empire at the time and so on, it would have been much harder and even impossible to defeat the axis. What I'm saying is that the people of, what then was, the USSR, have suffered a much greater loss because of the sacrifice they had to make (and because of Stalin, who shot them in the foot a couple million times). What I'm saying is that, if you look at the numbers, and try to realise that reality, you can begin to understand why they teach it that way. Most of the wight was on them. Unfortunately, it took the American people a long time to get to the right decision, and join in in the fight for Europe not only financially, but militarily.
Well we did win a victory is when you achieve your goal and our goal was to take our land back through a limited war
Why a limited war ? Because we only had 200 aircrafts to fight with and no way of supplying our troops without outside weapons which could be cut off any second while Israel had a 24/7 weapons shipment from USA
Returning the Sinai Peninsula back to Egypt is the greatest blunder of Israel.
Love from an Israeli-American.

Plenty of German nazi's were in Egypt after WW2
It was a damn close thing, Israel was almost overwhelmed.
Fred Landry
almost?? it's like saying that mt girlfriend was "almost" pregnant. Does not make sense.
Israel was not conquered so yes Israel was not defeated. What I meant was they were not completely overrun.
@@fredlandry6170 for egypt the war was not to conquer Israel but rather to return what was ours sina we got what we wanted from the war without us intervention Israel would have been doomed
@@seifgaming2015 Is that really what they are teaching you in Egypt? That is so sad. Egypt didn't conquer Sinai during the war. Israel gave it to Egypt as part of the peace agreement 6 years later. You lost seven times more soldiers than Israel did and you didn't gain anything except for pride over the fact that it wasn't as a humiliating loss as your humiliating loss in the 6th-day war and the only reason for that is because you attacked Israel on their most holy day which might be the biggest dick move in human history.
@@liordiamond7641 fun fact egypt attacked on Ramadan the month where your not supposed to eat or drink until sunset and they attacked early afternoon
For the Sinai bit we had most of hit conquered Not fully when America threatens we backed out of it and thus were given in it back in the camp David peace treaty
Almost fell? Considering its a 7 vs 1 scenario I think Israel came out very well
It was a 2 v 1 the rest were supporters
Me The Arabs had USSR support all through the war.
There are 50 states in the US
@@user-lz7ug2li4e You want to compare USSR shitty outdated weapons with US modern weapons ?
Me No, the US supported Israel because the soviets were on the Arabian side and the US needed an ally democracy in the Middle East.
Also, most Jews in the US are not pro Israel, and the fact that you think they were the reason for US support, and the fact that you seem to hate Jews in general points out the racism and barbarism the flows through your blood
Me What bribes? You can’t back anything you say with facts, so you just continue to make racist, antiemetic assumptions about Jews and thus avoiding the use of real facts and knowledge
My God! That Yom Kippur War must have been terrifying! I'm just glad no one got hurt.
Israel is always out-gunned and out-manned yet they always kick Arab ass. I love it.
As a student in israel there is a funny way to remember who was the prime minister in the yom kippur war
The only war we almost lost happened when the prime minister was a women.
Golda meir is the only female prime minister in the history of Israel.
That’s verry controversial but also interesting. Are you willing to share your story at website Sagger game? We are constantly researching new stories of people like You to share it by our Historical Newsletter. We would be grateful if You would share it with our community.
Almost lost ? They teach you that Israel did win the war ? Interesting. Wondering how did the Egyptians get the land back
Basically to see the whole story history yom kippur war Egypt got the land back Sinai . And plus Egypt Military troopers was about to go in Israel in the city but at that point President of Israel want to have peace . So Egypt got Sinai and we didn't go in Israel.
Egypt's army got demolished
@@BlazeWolf use yr mind a little , if egyptian army got demolished , why did israeli withdrew from sinai ? Does israel love peace!!??😅
@@mohamedelsaid6183 Israel withdrew from the sinai for better terms with egypt which egypt was the first arab country to recognize Israel, so it worked.

@@allosesmoii That's not even close to my point, the fact of you thinking that is complete nonsense and idiotic on your part. My point is that Israel gave up some land for better terms with egypt and to stop the war.

Under international law, any land or territory captured in a defensive war, is considered "spoils of war." Therefore, it now belongs to Israel.

And the war started when the muslim countries pronounced war on the Jews and until Jews stand up and say f off the war still hasn't ended.
@@myopinions1 she started the 6 day war are u stupid. usa told them to stand down. without usa israel is nothing
Interesting, was everyone really at the synagogue? I thought most of the population wasn't that religious especially not 50 years ago
Even the non-religious attend the synagogues, at a time without cellphones and personal TV esspecially.
@@Pr0PanicPhil I thought most of them were also anti-religion so I don't understand why they would go to the synagoge
Apparently they were
Back then even the non religious went at Yom Kipur. Or at least set at home. The country was completely closed. No TV no radio no cars no shops open. It is the holiest of days
@@canaanite23 I don't know that it's true that so many people were "still" religious at that point but the earlier Six Day War created a tremendous religious revolution that may have reversed the huge atheism trend of the early years of the state, so when Yom Kippur of 1976 rolled around, they were ready.

@Nir Hakimian wow you really suck at arabic you are kind of insulting your self idiot 😂😂😂 any way it looks like the war memories still hurts you so i guess thats good
@@albericrex9005 Write something intelligent or STFU.On Oct 6-7,1973,10,000 Egyptian assault units over ran 453 IDF men in 16 scattered strongholds.Those are odds of 22:1.
@Nir Hakimian Israel said the it will only be destroyed by a nuclear bomb and the Egyptian troops destroyed it by water hoses
defensive war lol. both sides moved tanks and artillery to borders cus they knew a war would come.
The Soviet missiles only protected 13 miles into Sinai. Israel could have just ignored the crossing, pulled all forces back 14 miles and not wasted planes and tanks. No way Egypt could have driven all the way into Israel.
How so? On paper it seems like the armies against Israel should have overwhelmed Israel. And that is what they planned to do .
@@cgaccount3669 The Israelis learned decades earlier that on paper means nothing with the Arab armies in 1948 and 1956. Israeli intelligence was aware of how limited the missile protection was. The Egyptians were absolutely crushed when they ventured beyond the 13-mile missile protection and the Israelis lost lives unnecessarily as well as equipment trying to stop a 13-mile incursion that was meaningless. The people of Israel wanted answers after this war to questions like why was their not better preparation. And a great question would be why the IDF did not adapt plans when the missiles were installed and their limitations understood.IDF enjoyed overwhelming air superiority beyond the 13 miles so they should have reasoned that the Egyptians never planned to venture farther than that. The forces sent to Sinai the first couple of days should have been sent to Golan Heights where the Syrians were dangerously close. Many tank crew lives were sacrificed there because of army tank non-reservists that could have been rushed to help, but were not and sent to Sinai instead.
@@martinishot thanks for the info!
6:1 in manpower?
Seems fair
That's meaningless due to the fact that neither side was fully mobilized.
And BTW, Egypt had no chance against Israel! Israel had pattons and centurions while Egypt had t-55s so....
6:1 to be sure of win
Nope, Egypt had old weapons from WW2 but Israel had the latest weapons from the USA
God bless Israel always

I'm german and in my opinion it's sad that Izrael isn't holding Sinai today :/
Im Egyptian and im my opinion your are a western pig who encourage stealing others land, and I'm proud that my country could kick thier asses and get Sinai back, and BTW the Egyptian military is much much stronger than ever Egypt is ranked 12th powerful military in the world while Israel is 16th. 🙄
Im Egyptian and in my opinion its sad that Russia isn't holding east Germany today 😑
@Mohamed bonar بدو يجي يوم اسرائيل بدا تنخرب أنشاالله انا من سوريا حبيبي
Mohamed bonar no they weren’t,the Muslims let them go. Back to Byzantium. Stop believing your own hype. Arabs can’t fight there way out of a paper bag.
@@LRichelieu They kicked Isreali ass with trash weapons and you're saying they can't fight they were out of a paper bag ? Yes you're right because no one can get himself in a paper bag so will you expect them to fight out of it?
Why israel left from Sinai.
We made a video about that here: ruclips.net/video/ZUuMM6vQIRE/видео.html
Peace with Egypt
Me Stop, just stop.. you know you’re 🤥
@Me lol don't fool yourself Israel was 100km away from Cairo at the end of the war it's just that we have the human decency to value peace over war and our own pride unlike Arabs, where do you get this information that Egypt won? are you Egyptian by any chance?
@Me I hope you won't say that the almight of the Egyptian army made it disappear and therefore doesn't exist, for all I know is if the peace treaty didn't exist we'd have the entire Sinai fortified around the Suez canal.

What if Egypt had nuclear weapons in it's arsenal in the Yom Kippur War? Would Egypt use them?
No they flew 2 bombers over the Mediterranean near Tel Aviv, at the start of operations, to show that civilian bombing would be met in kind.
that's not even a question,they would use them,remember the main objection of arab countries is to destro israel altogether and with their desperation they would use the bomb.
@@zipp-ny2rn you are lying,they would never fly a bomber over Tel aviv without being shot down by israel jet fighters,stop lying here.
@@mabhodlelajj1195 That might have caused world war 3 if they used the bomb then
@@Reezy37 why world war 3?Russia would have never risked their people for arab countries,especially when nuclear bombs are involved,you are not that important to russia,they gave you weapons and were will to send their troops cause israel would be easy for them to beat especially when they are war exostead,but nuclear war is another story.For fact that russia backed down when USA said they will send their troops to israel too if russia sent theirs it shows russia din't plan no heavy casualties for their side for arabs.
Long life Egypt 🇪🇬 ♥️

"no peace with Israel" right 😂
Long live all countries. Now. No war.

Guys really appreciate y'all shedding light on the other side of the story, but could your backgrounds not be so white T.T my eyes hurt
YA, take that Israel.
And Now Syiria still war against Israel
a v Because there’s an extremely violent fatal-4-way civil war there ( the Kurds vs ISIS vs the “former government” vs the rebels ).

@@joedenathan4775 Yeah out of pressure for peace.
@Gulaid M Yeah, but they made a major comeback in the yom kippur war though.
That's a W now.
Id be ashamed if it was given back after being beaten embarassed like that in just 6 days
