1, Middle East Platinum
Oil, the energy that drives the modern world, flows underground in the Middle East. Although the value of this black liquid is comparable to that of gold, for people living there, water is platinum like oil.
Since ancient times, Arabs have migrated and multiplied among oases, and there is no overall plan for water resources.
After the founding of Israel, shrewd Jews knew that water resources were indispensable to build Palestine into a place flowing with milk and honey.
Israel's water resources are distributed in the north and less in the south, in order to develop the arid areas in the south. After the First Middle East War, Israel spent 65.438+047 billion US dollars and 654.38+065.438+0 years to build a national water conveyance project to transport the water from Lake Galilee in the northern Golan Heights to the arid areas in the south through underground pipelines.
Israel's water diversion project has provided surging impetus for the country's development, which makes the surrounding Arabs very jealous. In Syria, also in the northern part of Palestine, it is planned to divert the Jordan River, which will not only provide development impetus for its own country, but also make the national water transmission project that Israel paid a lot of money to transport available without water. It's killing two birds with one stone.
2. The United Arab League was established.
In order to prevent Israel from retaliating, Syria agreed to merge with Egypt in 1958 to form the United Arab Republic, but the two countries are not bordered by each other, and there is an Israel in the middle. For Egypt, the elimination of Israel can not only make the new Arab League a complete country, but also make Egypt establish absolute prestige among Arab countries, thus attracting more Arab countries to join the Arab League.
1966 After Syria and Egypt signed a mutual defense treaty, the conflict with Israel intensified.
3. Crisis crisis
Faced with this situation, Israel, which stands on the opposite side, is very aware of the determination of Arab countries to destroy themselves. Therefore, since the day of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Israel's war organization ability and intelligence investigation ability have been excellent. Even Israel has trained Mossad, a secret service organization as famous as CIA, British MI 6 and Soviet KGB.
But the last straw that triggered the war seems to have been released by the Soviet Union. 1967 On May 13, the Soviet Union conveyed to Egypt that Israel would attack Syria on June 17. On May 22nd, Egypt re-blocked the Gulf of Aqaba, Israel's oil life channel. In order to avoid being passive after the war, Israel chose preemptive action and dispatched all air forces.
4. pin your hopes on one thing
The third Middle East War broke out at 7: 45 a.m. on June 5, 1967. The Israeli air force flew all the way at low altitude, attacked Egypt from behind the Sinai Peninsula, and destroyed the Egyptian air force before taking off. At 8: 00 (15), the ground troops attacked, and the120,000 Egyptian defenders in Sinai Peninsula were almost wiped out in three days. On the 8th, Israel pushed the war to the west bank of Suez Canal.
In the second battlefield between Israel and Jordan, Israel used the same tactics to destroy Jordan's air force and occupied the religious holy land Jerusalem and the strategic Golan Heights within three days.
5. The crisis has not been lifted.
The end of the third Middle East War did not alleviate the contradiction between Arab and Israeli sides. In this war, Israel occupied more than 80,000 square kilometers of land and determined Jerusalem as its capital. All these are unacceptable to Arabs. Since the Arabs can't accept this result, the war can only continue, and it is only a matter of time before it breaks out.
