We did not as they claim to sell our lands to the Israeli Occupation those are old deals the patriarch wants to rectify and clarify because all those old deals are detrimental to the rights of the patriarch eight and its congregation while this is not the first time the church has been accused of selling some of the numerous properties it owns in jerusalem the outrage now is far greater than it had been before. In manger square despite the marching bands and music a truly festive atmosphere was hard to achieve.

Fifteenth of may one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. A parade and military might to celebrate nineteen years since the founding of the state of israel. That this public display of power took place under a dog shadow. The previous day egyptian president. Had ordered his forces to take up positions along the buddhist but israel. Local mosque in monroe a mobile or. And that. By you for the goggle by youth so i get down on one of the levee. Three weeks later on the fifth of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. Israel launched an all out war against its arab neighbors. Off to only six days of fighting. Its achieved total victory. Defeating the armies of egypt jordan and syria. The cockney will come its just that they i mean. Shave a blaze of. Light but some like them some are. Me the dust if ya only of the way off the looking at. Noon to israel. Nice as the six day war. Israels territorial gains would change the map of the middle east. To this day Israeli Occupation of these lands is the main but to peace in this turbulent region. Is huge scotto its fifth season early on we had conquered it completely intoxicated everybody was intoxicated no one could even think splayed. But the story of this school is much longer than the six days of fighting. Its roots lay years earlier. Two decades before the fifth of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. Televisa the food of may one thousand nine hundred forty eight. The day that zionists leader David Bengurion declared the establishment of the state of israel. A sought. And mulatto say imo. I like. That to begin and ask. How. To talk about even when. On the day after the declaration five arab armies and to palestine. The lebanese attacks from the north the syrians iraqis and jordanians from the east but the most serious threat came from the south. The gyptian Army Advanced to the village of youve been out vicious twenty two kilometers from tel aviv. Weve had a very thin line of soldiers who were defending what was practically the last line of defense of tel aviv. But the pressure on the israelis was relieved when a un brokered truce came into effect. The zionists through the movement purchased arms on the european black markets. The arab armies of course enjoyed mainstream supplies from a states the french supplied the lebanese and the syrians the british supplied the egyptians the jordanians and the iraqis with a constant stream of arms. In one nine hundred forty two the United Nations imposed an embargo on arms shipments to the middle east and the british and the french abided by this in bargo. When the truce ran out the israelis now better armed set out to expel the arab armies from palestine. Up the meal thing and made us carry of cobra kind of the for civilian governments leah kind of tripping on pot farm community. Mostly a kind of they have got to have. Been is going to have a lot of the. Bulk. By the end of october as israeli troops advanced. And egyptian brigade was inserted. Called a palestinian village called and fallujah. Among the officers trapped in this pocket was a young major demand. With their armies locked in a stalemate egyptian and israeli delegations met on the island of rhodes. Under the sponsorship of the un. After a month of bargaining they reached an armistice agreement. Well first of all they had to put an end to the fighting believe that egypt will to get out of there as much as israel wanted and the negotiation was mostly both evacuating the flu to pocket. The agent had no territorial demands from israel so it was relatively easy to reach a cease fire. By the summer of one thousand nine hundred forty nine lebanon jordan and syria had also signed armistice agreements with israel. The jewish state now extended over almost the whole of palestine. Arab territory it was reduced to just a few small enclaves east in jerusalem and the west bank were placed under jordanian control. The gaza strip was to be administered by egypt. In the midst of defeat a man not done not said conceived a plan that would change the future of egypt. A movement that would be known as the free offices. A few cathedrals about the harbor were different that outbreak. Of a black hole a level of copper. In the desert a lot of kind of i got a side that while i may have the us out of the clear but fear. That led to see a mostly. Washer going down a lot of a. Bed of the same lot of way. That he that i will offer him at the outset are. Three years after the end of the war the free offices struck. In july nine hundred fifty two they launched a coup detat. Egypts king photo who was dethroned and sent into exile. Lieutenant colonel come on up to. The mastermind behind what was now cooled the july revolution quickly rose to be the countrys defacto leader. In israel this news aroused deep rooted fears in kibbutz state who can bring time into home of israels founding Prime Minister david banker. When gorean all the time feared that one day a new kemal ataturk would rise in the arab world and would unite the car of world against israel. And that fear of that prevention was enhanced with a message to power ninety fifth. And february one thousand nine hundred fifty five bengurion returned to political life. This time as defense minister. Just a week after bangor ian took up the post one hundred fifty israeli paratroop as led by major ariel sharon. Was sent to attack an Egyptian Army base near the city of gaza. Forty egyptian soldiers were killed. And many more injured. When bigger came back decided immediately to show that israel is not going to give in. This time a from the egyptian border the provocations and the attacks by inch of traders who are on the rise in. A tub the mass of a year or public the need for a way in mass of some your himself from seem was the mob. In medina or was. What. And. Are. Claiming they were egyptian territorial waters not sort of close the terrans straight at the entrance to the gulf of aqaba to ships sailing to and from the Israeli Border to the land. To strengthen his army not some sort more weapons from the west at this time to no avail. So in a surprise move he turned east. Russias new foreign minister mr shippey laugh lost no time in taking a personal part in middle east affairs and he was soon engaged in talks with president nasser. Egypt signed this huge arms deal with czechoslovakia which was actually the soviet union. To slovakia was supposed to supply egypt with two hundred aircraft. Conks. Thousand. It was something fabulous. In november one thousand nine hundred fifty five bangor in began a second term as israels Prime Minister. At the top of his agenda was how to respond to the growing strength of egypt now armed to the teeth. Eight months later the opportunity came. When nasa announced the nationalisation of the suez canal. A decision that outraged the british and french the owners of the International Canal company. It is a matter of life under george will. Our quarrel is not with it still nationally out of work. It is with colonel not. That he is not a man who can be trusted. Under green. Britain and france were convinced that military intervention would be needed to recapture the canal. And bring down the upstart. But to pretext was needed. For us. Nor was it a threat again. To assert our eally gaiman was our i thought home with very up. The whole other assess him on how your club will mean a lot of fighting and what that i mean by the how to suffer the shrub and yellow leg anybody contextless. Theyre going to talk about he. Well most of us are thoughtful. Very are. Enormous and. According to this tripartite secret agreement on the twenty ninth of october one nine hundred fifty six. Israeli forces crossed the border into egypt. Even though the israelis was still some distance from the canal britain and france called for both sides to withdraw. When nasr rejected the ultimatum british and french troops began landing and put signs at the mediterranean end of the canal. Night a statement not consulted in any way about any phase of these actions nor were we informed of them in advance. It is our hope and intent this matter will be brought before the United NationsGeneral Assembly there with no veto operate in the opinion of the world can be brought to bear in our quest for a just in to this tormenting. By the end of december. Under heavy international pressure. The british and french were forced into a humiliating withdrawal from put sallied. Louvel attention now shifted to israel still occupying the whole of the sinai and the gaza strip. Allow an apostle but wont go to zero a little incitements he. Cannot up yes he in the east. Fringe knesset. Than in sap. Was up out of. In march one thousand nine hundred fifty seven bengurion finally ordered the israeli army to withdraw to the prewar borders. However he had secured two major gains. The stationing of un troops along the borders with egypt and gaza put an end to the Palestinian Fedayeen xrayed inside israeli territories. And israel was guaranteed free passage of has shipping through the tiran strait. The sinai complained gave israel actually about ten years off and signed peace in the egyptian border between one hundred fifty seven and let the sixty seven there was a total call. But the fragile peace on the buddhas mosque continuing hostility between cairo and tell of eve. In israel as a vitamin the commander of the air force was devising a new strategy. Operation focus. I mean among some of the. If need be to its war a concept. Seems the most moving in we wont see what the mission. But two things threatened to derail that plan. The first was egypts highly versatile serviette made defenses. This network would soon face its first major test. Not at the hands of fights mins after force but through the bizarre actions of an israeli peace activist. It would not involve the commercial pilot and the gimmick for elections of nine hundred sixty five he bought a little airplane painted into wife and put the name peace and said if im elected to the knesset i would fly to egypt. He was not elected to various world number of people voted for him but i did time he became very serious of this so one day without any announcement he took off with his claim. Ab matanzas planted import salary to egypt in february one thousand nine hundred sixty six. When is that what that is. Furthermore the tan asked to meet president. To deliver a petition calling for peace. Egyptians treated him very nicely did not let him into egypt but the victim fill his tank with gather lynn and sent him back. In a tense flight had revealed the weakness of egypts ad defenses. But israel still had a major concern. To make twenty one. A High Performance supersonic soviet fighter. It formed the backbone of the arab air forces. But it too would soon give up its secrets. In august one nine hundred sixty six an iraqi pilot landed in israel with his make. He had been offered a million u. S. Dollars to defect. But it would turn out to be worth every cent. That he shapiro our chief test pilot of the air force checked the airplane and when you all its this event the gist of the make one to one which was the airplane of the war in the enemy hands. It was not known before what the israelis had learned about the meat was put to the test in actual combat. In april nine hundred sixty seven the border skirmishes with syria escalated into a full scale aerial battle. Which shut down seven aircraft. It was such a victorian the israeli air force. In the weeks following this battle. Reports possibly originating with soviet intelligence began to come in that israel was massing its on me on the syrian border. An apparent escalation that spurred nasr into action. On the food thousandth of may one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. Hugo did it gyptian troops into sinai. Must better live as he had how to while a selfie at a low blow. In mimeo tell a teen and foscari. I am lucky she. Even when who bombed. Out a house. That was all outdoor story. But also saw an opportunity to try to roll back the gains israel had secured following the one nine hundred fifty six war. On the sixteenth of may egypt asked the un to withdrew its peacekeeping troops from sinai. A week later and the theatrical setting of a meeting with his fighter pilots. Announced the closing of the tour on straight to israeli shipping. News of nassers actions boot people out onto the streets all across the arab world. Tell me about a billion dollar slaves a little some of them. Well a man in the wall of the finance. Well that could have certainly but in the showing of the bust of appeal called leader. Of some. Israels new war cabinet under levy and took the decision to open hostilities on the fifth of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. The air force was given the green light to operation focus. The aerial attack it had been rehearsing for years. The israelis had drawn the dice which would determine the future of their state. And live it sounds like an agreement between criminal bosses if anyone ever comes to ask the question is for throw their hands up in the air and say i dont know i was just nominee director were doing investigation in syria.

Cairo the morning of monday the fifth of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. A day that will change the history of the middle east. A plane is waiting to take off toward sinai. Marshall opted hacky mohammad a deputy Supreme Commander of the Egyptian Armed forces is making a morale boosting visit to troops deployed on the borders with israel for the last three weeks. Than it was of the shut off praskovia. Buses and little. C. S. E. On what. We have gotten up lemme minute. Cameron read. Out on the even a team of these. But this egyptian show of strength was put to good use by israeli media. Memories of the holocaust were invoked to persuade israelis they were facing a threat to their very existence. In a different view of the nazis. Grandmother nothing was never mentioned by name in the bow media at the time it was called the egyptian tyrant it was his name. In washington u. S. President lyndon b. Johnson issued a stark warning to which ever side should start the war. It was a thinly veiled threat to the egyptian leadership. Its toll there at the extra. Hour is come out of them also. By you know so much value is sought neal. To warm a dot about. What to go there i thought well but have a war. A lot or has the fact that its. A National Team but daughter but all i want to how did. Ian. Not to look up but about well how did you fuck up. In fact israel though apparently the underdog was far more prepared for war than any of its arab opponents. Is really chief of staff its have to be in the front line to meet troops waiting for a green light. On them is action of muscle is a hand to mobilize all its horses all instantly the forces. And also told we should strike first and the sighting first was in the eyes of the the ensign to what we thought on this invasion of the insurgency. The opening attack would be the much rehearsed operation focus. And aerial strike to destroy the egyptian and force on the ground. In the early hours of the fifth of june ninety sixty seven. The israeli athletes prepared to deliver the first blow. Up there was a morning and came to the Briefing Room he wrote owners of leg bolts zero hours which was seven mm four to five. The the. Two hundred israeli jets took to the at. The back. They would arrive over a chip shin asked fields at exactly seven forty five am. To avoid radar detection they flew fast north then west over the mediterranean. Turning south the planes came in from the north not from the east as the egyptians had anticipated. By the bait i would say that. Because in a field thats a kind of a sense of alabama. Was hostile in a way for. You know ever soon. Very easy as you train the many many times. His. Were located very easy owns the ground and not far from the runways. Was not a big problem to strike. Immediately use so big. Smoke over oles those airfields. Get it when i might hand them a plate feel eight layers minute a bunch of go up and head home why had ken said if said of no more want to have. A leg but as in has a maybe. I live. By midday the israelis had successfully attacked eighteen airfields. The egyptians had lost eighty percent of that have force. More than three hundred planes destroyed on the ground. But that. Ironically cairo radio was carrying false reports of the total failure of the enemys air attack. With news coming in of egypts apparent success georgian syria and iraq now launch their own ass strikes. And the. Minute they have a show. But you know it was one hundred eleven and. Thats how they reported. I want to show is in the middle for them to see them in. The roman room. Ineffective though they walk those attacks gave these really is a pretext to widen the scope of the whole. Operation focus was extended to cover affeldt in jordan syria and even a key base in iraq. Age three although on a base from each they could launch is low and the only base in which we could in each with the last drops of. My serve fly to the today. Not far from damascus. When i made my first turn over the city oh for the most schools people climb on the roofs and wave for us the people in the most those. Caught off guard the syrians lost half the ak kroft. Th tree affeldt in iraq was put out of action. And georgians after the spurs totally destroyed. By sunset on the first day of School Operation focus had guaranteed israel total ass superiority and the skies over the middle east. The arab armies would now be fighting with no ass of course. The outcome of the war had been sealed. I only thing that there is no example in history of the world of the asian of such a total strike and the total attack. Maybe the only time that it can compare to this bilawal the take of japanese on the totals all grades above that was almost thats him aided the mental fleet in the pacific. On the ground Egyptian Forces were firing much better and. They had succeeded in holding up the israeli army to tons and to sinai. Yet the egyptian deputy Supreme CommanderMarshal Ahmed was about to take a disastrous decision. Its roots lay in his attempted visit to the front line the day before. Meant to see me say. I was the. Beautiful gus gus i should be seen by bill hall at small. Even gonna see me. Record they are. The. Best stop him to it thats monk a fiend bamidele say could obviously. Miraculously the plane was able to return to cairo. But Marshal Ahmed had been shocked by witnessing israels and supremacy at fust times. The next day i met ordered an immediate withdrawal of egyptian troops from sinai. And which led to the total collapse of the egyptian front. The custom before michel therrien. Shave it please him in jail who are very high shoes by a story thats vague bets and like them in the summer. So young me the dust ish young we have what were looking for. They. Can im sure hes saying. Its lead to last either at last call a by your vet lift a sense. Share and its a. Big love with god thats a vote up of him by install the other. The fact they saw him get only in. A law you become by. By the fourth day of the rule israeli troops reached the eastern bank of the suez canal. They had occupied the whole of the Sinai Peninsula and the gaza strip. Im not sure lived there for years upon a cross street. Level but the response from the. Left was on but its pulled back the governments. Were should know to have mellowed out at the start has as you. Could have given was for. The previous day the israelis had also tasted success on that eastern front. Ending the short lived rule launched by jordans king hussein. By Eleven Oclock in the morning the first day visually after we destroyed the egyptian. Who sent the no into the. On the country and also called him up and said will winning will winning do your own share. He didnt. Need a fence it was in the name of the doing but he conquered the hills along the government tells it endangered the insulting part of joes on them and his forces were only by now a few hundred yards away from his lead me house and cell phones and this is that. On the often news of the first day of the war. Israelis began their assault. Against the jordanians. The box will soon escalate. And two days later the whole of the west bank and jerusalem fell to the israelis. Then the. Slimness so given that the whole of it. Being. The vote of the vote the surely going to get a ben your name is awful and then. The coffee. With the wool but over on the egyptian and jordanian fronts and ignoring a u. N. Cool for a cease fire israels high command now decided to secure its borders with syria. On the fifth day of war israeli troops began to climb the strategic golan heights. And. Steal the injection the beneath it had but malaysian will comply to her duties and will be. Through that. Modoc at some almost and then we are on a must. As demand and its a definite look at the idea and just look at all of that possible. Charity yes she said that. But on the sixth day of the rule damascus radio made an unexpected announcement. Syria had accepted the u. N. Cease fire. With no advance warning given to troops fighting on the cover not the big. Cost fatally undermined syrian army resistance. The man blamed for the armys collapse was the minister of defense. A man who defends tree rise to power in syria. Hafez assad. The israelis pushed on and occupied the whole of the golan heights. Let me. Sleep. They had this yes and that the on it for that it could. Not but in the uk but i. Assume. At the end of the six day of fighting and only one attempt achieved all its goals israel accepted to the u. N. Cease fire. The guns fell silent. The arabs had suffered a humiliating defeat. Me a yet dowen. A no been a while you have if he hasnt. Been many dead there for how morally you can be. Like i did. And say. Maam and. When i heard. A month of it arrest me. When i didnt hear see. Or hear. Or read he would be. More open and. Under heavy popular pressure nasa rescinded his decision to step down from the presidency. And attempts to regain the lost arab territories began. Israel had tripled its size capturing the Sinai Peninsula the gaza strip the west Bank Eastern Jerusalem and the golan heights. We tried everything we went to the United Nations we tried mediation we tried contacts with Different Countries and it was clear that all this was to know if the. Their mood was lets give nothing back if you dont have to there were songs there were victory albums there were the huge intoxication of victory. This huge unique miraculous victory of the. Indepth war war the greatest tragedy in the history of islam. The israelis basked in an aura of invincibility. But their victory was just the start of even greater complications. Which still plagued the middle east to this day. Israel found itself governing and being responsible for a million palestinians in the newly occupied Gaza Strip West Bank and jerusalem. To could vote six months to own. Those. Both in the west bank and then they came back and they said. There was other people there and they havent theres not a movement. So dont do it there when we conquer them and create. A pot of state or we huff the loaf to move predominantly jewish state called israel and the west bank and gaza should be a basis for future negotiations. Dition of their rights to have a state of their own the viable state of the old in the west bank and gaza. What israel chose was and still remains the first option. In the aftermath of the war israel declared what it called the unification of jerusalem. The entire holy city was placed under israeli jurisdiction including christian and muslim holy sites. We are the government and the only government in the area that is just a good we have obligations and privileges and duties there of litigation and fairly still maintain law and order and to provide the people with services and away she to believe standard of living as a garment like every government was its citizen. Furthermore and in defiance of International LawIsraeli Settlers began to move into the west bank the territory they called judea and samaria. The lands which they want to settle in who are the core and heartland of the jewish people in biblical times as rigid as an emerged as it was natural that there would be this messianic urge to settle those areas. Even perhaps even clear out arabs from these areas and this didnt happen but jewish settlements were placed there and this is made things much more complicated for peacemaking here. In addition to the west Bank Settlements were spreading in the gaza strip sinai and on the golan heights. And as the israelis tighten their grip on the occupied territories it became clear they had no intention of returning them. Even to get a u. Haul unearthly bomb to. Ma muslims it will go on a block away and it will be that guy says an elephant could have a new lock on the sleeve yet im in the in a mob would be the whole cloth his accountant and the nickel box one of them that all too old to wear is. What i miss the give me an optical out of what then yeah but in ma to the folks like that. In october one thousand nine hundred seventy three after just six years the arabs aiming to restore their territories and their dignity would launch another war. Israel was about to receive a shop remind us of the fun rehabilitate it to ted conquered forever and the war of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. Well come to us look at the weather across north america as far as the really cold weather is concerned across north america you can see the change in colors as far as the temperatures go over the next couple of days mull there is a venture going to push its way in but theres a price to be paid for that in terms of some quite heavy snowfall so coming by sunday were going to see an area of rain developing and turning into snow across parts of the midwest through up towards the great lakes and heading into monday then weve got quite a widespread area of snow pushing into them but that lanty region rain for the towards the south but also the potential for some freezing rain along the length of this frontal system miami twenty three degrees for the best place to be yet across the west more snow heading in towards Pacific Northwest for the south rossi drawing fire fight them to colorado there were fourteen degrees heading down into the caribbean weve got this area of cloud and rain extending across central parts of the caribbean so that could be quite a bit of heavy rain around and not too much in the way of sunshine so its still looking fairly wet for panama and possibly costa rica as well of the next twenty four hours and that rain could extend up towards watermelon nicaragua also heading into south america some heavy showers in prospect for both peru and bolivia further towards the dry weather across paraguay and trying argentina with highs of thirty and when a series.
