Gamal Abdel Nsser of Egypt was bent in destroying Israel. He got other countries (mainly Syria) to join in. They lost in 6 days in 1967. They lost the territories. > >Exactly. Israel took territories.
When you are as very small country surrounded by enemies, and when they attack you and you win the war you expand your borders to create a security buffer zone. Then you trade this for peace. It worked with Egypt. Do the rest want peace?
