OH! fighting who ? u said we were fighting Israel we were fighting America after all the one with the strongest ally wins
in 1973 the Israeli army was destroyed (they lost half their planes and 800 tanks of which only 400 were repaired) till nickel grass occurred sadaat said in a message to asad that they won in the war against Israel but lost against America and a country like mine just couldn't fight America at the time not even now.
You better read that history again.
Soviet Union was replenishing the Arab armies in massive airlifts. Britain imposed an arms embargo on Israel.
Here some facts:
Israel was supported by the US
Syria, Egypt, Iraq and Jordan were supported by the Soviet Union, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Tunesia, Libya, Kuwait, Algeria, Sudan, Lebanon, North Korea, Cuba and the PLO.
Israel had about 400.000 troops, the Arabs about 950.000
Israel had 1.700 tanks, the Arabs about 3.400
Israel had 945 artillery units, the Arabs 1.700
Israel had 440 combat aircraft, the Arabs about the same.
Israel had about 2.700 dead, the Arabs about 12.000
Israel had aqbout 8.000 wounded , the Arabs about 25.000
Israel captured 8.783 Arabs, the Arabs captured 293 Israelis.
Israel lost 400 tanks , the Arabs 2.300
Israel lost 102 aircraft, the Arabs about 400
and you are telling me that the Arabs destroyed the Israeli forces?
Not one US soldier fought with the Israelis, while many Arab planes were piloted by Russians.
The second biggest tank battle ever was won by the Israelis.
To recapitulate: you claim that the Arabs destroyed the Israelis, then tell me how come the Arabs lost Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights and the Sinai? Remember that at the beginning there was a US and Britain arms embargo on Israel. Nixon ended the embargo and started to re-supply Israel but most of these supplies arrived too late to be used.
