The Israeli's didn't like that Jewish tribe much because Gad's mommy was merely a maid....Gad was a son of a slave ole Jacob put the bone too.

…newly released documents contain a claim that the 1976 rescue of hostages, kidnapped on an Air France flight and held in Entebbe in Uganda, was not all it seemed. A UK government file on the crisis, released from the National Archives, contains a claim that Israel itself was behind the hijacking. An unnamed contact told a British diplomat in Paris that the Israeli Secret Service, the Shin Bet, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) collaborated to seize the plane....

.... Your simply nitpicking semantics now.
P.S It didn't even bother you to source a so called historian (Ilan Pappe) that cares nothing about the truth, and he openly admits that. What does it say about you?
I feel sorry that for someone like you - who is clearly far from being stupid – lacks the decency to put aside his preconceived opinions. elevate and be true and honest for once.
Back to semantics MR Militant, Antisemitism = Jew Hating. Not Arab hating, not all Semites, not Syrians, not Egyptians, not Lebanese, not Saudis....Jews.
Oh I seem to forget you had a hard time distinguishing between the 6 million Jews that were murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators and all the other millions that died in the war..

I simply flagged that Israel managed to achieve an arms deal during the truce and that this greatly helped Israel. I never claimed it achieved hardware superiority. The arms deal dosen't change my contention that the Arabs had hardware superiority while Israel had, unified superiority and troop number superiority. Your simply nitpicking semantics now.

The 1967 six day war was not all it was cracked up to be.
First they attacked without warning much like Japan did at pearl harbour (Attack was allowed and US knew it was comming) and they had lots of military suport from the USA including a lot of planes that recived a coat of paint to discuise the origin.
True, the Syrians did launch a limited aerial attack and limited areil bombardments upon the northern settelments thus Israel launched a devestating counter attack on Syria's airforce, however the capture of the Golan Heights is an entirely different story.

Yeah. Land invasion by Syrian forces never happened in this alternative history of yours. Check Tel Dan and other places. Massive artillery barrage on civilian targets also probably happened in alternative dimension.
