Bullshit. Yom kippur was successful. Arabs didn't plan in what you claim. Same with the 48 war. They could have went in and took Jerusalem. They were close.
Yet I didn't bring up any decade old wars up.
Despite Israel's tactical successes west of the canal, the Egyptian military was reformed and organized. Consequently, The Israeli military position became "weak" for different reasons, "One, Israel now had a large force (about six or seven brigades) in a very limited area of land, surrounded from all sides either by natural or man-made barriers, or by the Egyptian forces. This put it in a weak position. Moreover, there were the difficulties in supplying this force, in evacuating it, in the lengthy communication lines, and in the daily attrition in men and equipment. Two, to protect these troops, the Israeli command had to allocate other forces (four or five brigades) to defend the entrances to the breach at the Deversoir. Three, to immobilize the Egyptian bridgeheads in Sinai the Israeli command had to allocate ten brigades to face the Second and Third army bridgeheads. In addition, it became necessary to keep the strategic reserves at their maximum state of alert. Thus, Israel was obliged to keep its armed force-and consequently the country-mobilized for a long period, at least until the war came to an end, because the ceasefire did not signal the end of the war. There is no doubt that this in total conflict with its military theories."[195] for those reasons and according to Dayan, "It was therefore thought that Israel would withdraw from the west bank, since she was most sensitive on the subject of soldier's lives." The Egyptian forces didn't pull to the west and held on to their positions east of the canal controlling both shores of the Suez Canal. None of the Canal's main cities were occupied by Israel; however, the city of Suez was surrounded.
The Israeli soldiers had a different spirit back then and did fight good. Thats not the case today. Those wars aren't as simple as 2 sentences. Look into it fascist
There's a reason why Dayan told Meir that on October 9 it was the end of the THIRD temple. Signaling they would almost use nuclear weapons. So obviously you have things messed up
I guess you've never heard of Adans attacks accross the canal then. How he first destroyed 50 to 60 T-62's of the Egyptian 21st Armored Division, then he turned and surprised the 25th IAB and knocked out 86 of its 96 tanks...for the loss of three tanks of his own?
As far as taking towns, why bother? That ties down your mobile forces and allows the enemy to attack you at their pleasure. Far better to remain in the desert, where they have no idea where you are, and strike where it hurts the enemy the most.
You need to read some books on armored warfare there my boy. I thought you knew everything
And you certainly know everything. " the Israelis kicked the Arabs ass hur dur hur! Argh! White power!"
That's NOT the reason they threatened to use nuclear weopons.
Who thraetened to use nukes (please include the source of your "facts" in the matter)?
