Nobody Remembers the Six-Days War

Nobody Remembers

Yes, let’s remember the Six Days War, or, how the Israelis (June 5-10)  made the Muslims look like a bunch of idiots back in 1967, and how those idiots haven’t gotten over it since.

If you read Wikipedia, it gets pretty involved, but my point here, is that Ronald Reagan’s “Trust but verify” should maybe go up on some Muslim leaders walls….two leaders in that war really screwed up, just because they didn’t want to admit they screwed up. And it was all because of a lie.

King Hussein bin Talal of Jordan believed a great big lie that was told to him by one of his old adversaries, Egyptian President Gamal Nasser, who said:

“Our planes have been striking at Israel’s airfields since morning.”

That…was a big, fat lie.

Egypt at the time HAD no air force, because it had been destroyed.

How did it start? On May 30, 1967, Egypt shut off its Straits of Tiran and blockaded the port of Eilat, (Putting them in complete control which was against international law) so Israel decided to strike Egypt.  They completely annihilated the Egyptian air force. In the first 100 minutes of battle, they destroyed 286 Egyptian combat aircraft and killed almost a third of the pilots.

So, what did Egypt do? They lied–big time. They told their citizens and all the other Muslims in the world that they shot down 86 enemy planes, including an American bomber, with the loss of only two Egyptian planes.  Victory parades were held in all the streets throughout Egypt.  The Egyptian Field Marshall, Abdel Amer, then told the Jordanian General Abdal Riyad, that 75 percent of the Israeli air force had been destroyed. Truth was, those ‘destroyed’ planes could be seen flying over Egypt on radar.

Ha Ha! The Jordanian King Hussein believed his old friend, and so, cocky as only a Jordanian King can be, and wanting some of that glory, he thought he saw some easy pickings, and invaded Israel.

Not one to lose face, because he had a lot of Palestinian refugees in his mist, he gambled and lost half his kingdom, thanks to his old lying Egyptian buddy.

But the lying didn’t stop: After both Egypt  and Jordan were crushed by Israel,  they decided to change the narrative and say that the Americans and British had attacked them along with the Jews!

By the end of the third day, the Israelis owned Jerusalem and the West Bank.

Now…what can we learn from this history lesson?

!. Muslim lie…constantly, and all the time.

2. Don’t mess with the Jews

3. Don’t trust anybody with the name Hussein in their name—- they are bound to be stupid, and you could lose half your country.

4. We should insist on a new international treaty that all wars be fought in six days, seven tops.

5. Whatever happens next in the Middle East, will be Bush’s fault. Remember that first, and you will not be surprised.

6. Send all Muslims back to Jordan…where, if history repeats itself, they will be sorely needed.

7. This one’s for you__________________________________________________________.
