You post demionstartes what an oxymoron you are TOU by posting 'Israel launched its counteroffensive first against the Syrian front, and only when it had pushed the Syrians back well east of the 1967 cease-fire line (by October 15) did Israel turn its attention to the Egyptian front. In ten days of fighting, Israel pushed the Egyptian army back across the canal, and the IDF made deep incursions into Egypt. On October 24, with Israeli soldiers about one kilometer from the main Cairo-Ismailia highway and the Soviet Union threatening direct military intervention, the UN imposed a cease-fire'. SWithout UN intervention Israeli would have entered Cairo. ---------------------------------------------------
The Israelis defeat an army which was a thousand times more numerous and which took it by surprise and TOU says 'The October 1973 War also cost Israel its self-confidence in its military superiority over its Arab enemy'.
You certainly have the most twisted sense of logic I have ever seen in my entire life. You have obviously been totally indoctrinated by the Muslim Jihad. This war showed up the total incompetence and disfunctionalty of the Arab armies which were roundly defeated by a much smaller, vastly more effecient force. They were and are no more than a rabble.
