Download The Six-Day War: The Breaking of the Middle East AudioBook Free
One fateful week in June 1967 redrew the map of the Middle East. Many scholars have recorded how the Six-Day Warfare unfolded, but little has been done to make clear why the discord happened by any means. As we tackle its 50th anniversary, Man Laron refutes the widely accepted opinion that the conflict was merely the result of regional friction, uncovering the crucial assignments played by American and Soviet policies when confronted with an encroaching global economical crisis and rebuilding Syria's often overlooked centrality to incidents leading up to the hostilities. The Six-Day Warfare effectively sowed the seeds for the downfall of Arab nationalism, the expansion of Islamic extremism, and the animosity between Jews and Palestinians. Within this important new work, Laron's fresh interdisciplinary perspective and comprehensive archival research offer a significant reassessment of any discord - and the trigger-happy generals behind it - that is constantly on the shape today's world.
