We are aware of the many controversies and debate surrounding the Six-Day War, including debates surrounding the justification of the Israeli &#8220;preemptive strike&#8221;, the role that foreign\/western nations played in the conflict and warcrimes that might have been committed by both sides. We decided to stay away from these debates in this video, and stick to the historical narrative. While we highly value (academic) debate and discussion, we don&#8217;t allow for racism, xenophobia, anti-semitism and partisan revisionism. Also, please try to stay away from modern partisan politics as far as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading!<br \/>\nCheers!\ufeff <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sabaton History Published on 9 May 2019 When Egyptian president Nasser closes an important sea route for their neighbouring state of Israel in May 1967, Israel argues that a military attack on Egypt is justified.
