Rethinking Israel's David-and-Goliath past

Only 40 years later and people are trying to rewrite history already.

The same people saying that Israel was the aggressor in this war would be the same people that;

Would condemn Israel for bringing Eichman back to Israel
Deny the holocaust truly happened,
Claim Israel is an apartheid state
ETC.

The fact that Israel has had to fight for its existence since the day of its independence (or should i say 'the naqba of 1948') is no secret. Surrounding Arab nations have been trying to 'push the jews into the sea' since day 1. The six day war war no different.

Do not attempt to rewrite history...
 
Israel's pre-emptive attack made Israel the aggressor and not Egypt. Israel could not lose that war because they already had nuclear weapons and were willing to use them. Also, Israel already had a small but significant amount of depleted uranium ammunition in reserves at that time, which reduced Egypt's chances of victory down to zero.

Nasser had other reasons for expelling the UN force from the Sinai, such as its inability to make Israel enforce ignored UN resolutions. The Egyptian militarization of the Sinai was seen as an act of defiance towards Western powers who interdicted it after the 1956 war, rather than a preparation of an attack against Israel.

Israel's only reason for the war was, indeed, Zionist imperialism.
