10 June

The Six Day War ends on this day, as an outnumbered Israel defeats its Arab and greatly expands its borders. On 5 June 1967, Israel responded to a build-up of Arab forces along its borders by launching simultaneous attacks against Egypt and Syria. Jordan subsequently entered the fray, but the Arab coalition was no match for Israel's proficient armed forces. When the Six-Day War ended on 10 June, Israel suddenly had control of territory three times its original size. However, the true fruits of victory came in claiming the old city of Jerusalem from Jordan. Many wept while bent in prayer at the Western Wall of the Second Temple. Arab leaders, forced to accept a U.N. cease-fire, met in August to discuss the future of Israel. They decided upon a policy of no peace, no negotiations and no recognition of Israel, and made plans to zealously defend the rights of Palestinian Arabs in the occupied territories.

The winner selalu berfikir untuk kerjasama, sedangkan the loser selalu berfikir untuk menjadi tokoh yang paling berjaya

Mungkin ungkapan itulah yang paling cocok untuk menggambarkan kekalahan bangsa arab terhadap Israel dalam perang 6 hari (5-10 Juni 1967). Tiap pemimpin negara arab ingin menjadi tokoh yang paling berjaya, tidak ada kerjasama antar negara-negara arab. Mereka terkejut ketika Israel yang sedang terkepung melakukan "preemptive strike" kepada mesir, dan hanya dalam beberapa jam saja angkatan udara mesir (yang ketika itu terbesar dikawasan timur tengah) menjadi lumpuh. Sampai sekarang "the holly city of Jerusalem" masih berada ditangan Israel, dan ini adalah akibat tidak adanya persatuan di umat muslim seluruh dunia.

Bersatu kita teguh, bercerai kita runtuh...
