In reply to the discussion: Joe Biden tells Israel 'other team' appears to be behind deadly hospital explosion [View all]JohnSJ
(98,883 posts)27. You have just given yourself away. 1967 just happens to be when the Arab countries told the
Palestinians not to accept any peace agreement with Israel, because they were going to destroy Israel, and had their troops from Egypt, Jordan, Syria etc. poised to attack.
Israel countered that, and pushed them back, and as a result, capture the Golan heights where Syria had been launching missiles into Israel, and Jerusalem, where Jews previously were not allowed in.
It was the 6 days war, and as a result of that war, Israel was successful, and as a result of that war they gained territory, because that is the result of war.
