Some Israeli leaders do sometimes tell the truth
On 3 June 1972 Peled was even more explicit in an article of his own for Le Monde. He wrote: “All those stories about the huge danger we were facing because of our small territorial size, an argument expounded once the war was over, have never been considered in our calculations. While we proceeded towards the full mobilisation of our forces, no person in his right mind could believe that all this force was necessary to our ‘defence’ against the Egyptian threat. This force was to crush once and for all the Egyptians at the military level and their Soviet masters at the political level. To pretend that the Egyptian forces concentrated on our borders were capable of threatening Israel’s existence does not only insult the intelligence of any person capable of analysing this kind of situation, but is primarily an insult to the Israeli army.”
The preference of some generals for truth-telling after the event provoked something of a debate in Israel, but it was short-lived. If some Israeli journalists had had their way, the generals would have kept their mouths shut. Weizmann was one of those approached with the suggestion that he and others who wanted to speak out should “not exercise their inalienable right to free speech lest they prejudice world opinion and the Jewish diaspora against Israel.”
It is not surprising that debate in Israel was shut down before it led to some serious soul-searching about the nature of the state and whether it should continue to live by the lie as well as the sword; but it is more than remarkable, I think, that nearly half a century after the events the Western media continues to prefer Zionist mythology to the reality of what happened in 1967 and why. When most reporters and commentators have need today to make reference to the Six Days War, they still tell it like the Zionists said it was in 1967 rather than how it really was. Obviously there are still limits to how far the mainstream media is prepared to go in challenging the Zionist account of history, but it could also be that lazy and ignorant journalism is a factor.
For those Western journalists and politicians who might still have doubts about who set up and started the Six Days War, here’s a quote from what Prime Minister Begin said in an unguarded, public moment in 1982. “In June 1967 we had a choice. The Egyptian army concentrations in the Sinai approaches did not prove that Nasser was really about to attack us, We must be honest with ourselves. We decided to attack him.”.
Another way of putting it and which is completely true is that what happened in June 1967 was a war of naked Israeli aggression not self-defence.
And it, the Zionist monster state, has still not been called to account for that crime.

So many Lies and Sneaky Deals since 1967… …But That Six Day War that was no war..Was Pretty Dirty Business. I can`t say that Anyone Really Fell for The Lie…It was just One more Maneuver That Isitreal Pulled off For ‘propaganda and Did not Build That Stolen Land up in any Manner or estimate.. But One more Nail in its` coffin was Laid on yet another Neighbor, something that will Not Be forgotten., nor Ever Forgiven. So, What is Isitreal going to do when All the Peoples Of the World decides to Level the Playing field For Good ? All the Bluff they can huff and Puff Up will not Save them. Eventually, ‘The Chickens Do come home to Roost.’ The Palestinians Will Take Back Their Home from these usurpers. It is in the Cards.

Thank you Mr Hart for telling as it is. My only comment is that Western journalists and politicians still do not dare to tell the truth or expose Israel’s lies because they know that the price is still very high in their Utopian free world where freedom of speech means telling the truth about almost anything, but dare NOT expose Zionist myths and lies, or even tolerate others indulge in that!

Two Airliners went down right before the war started so media coverage wasn’t there. Sounds familiar right? (MH17)

These lies (by Israel)are in great need to be exposed in purpose to protect the Palestine people from even more land-grabbing. Thank you Mr Heart. I will share this and copy it to my notes. It will be of great use when the trolls of Zionist liars try to spread their venomous history.

Tom Segev’s “1967″ also contains a report on the cabinet meeting vom June 2 to 4. This report is based on Ja’akov Herzog’s notes. As I only own the German version, I’ll quote the text here:
“‘Wir brauchen ein Alibi’, meinte auch Minister Bentov. Dayan antwortete: ‘Ich habe keine anderen Tricks auf Lager als zuzuschlagen. Falls jemand eine bessere Idee hat, werde ich
mich ihr anschließen.’ Zur Möglichkeit, ein israelisches Schiff als Provokation in den Golf von Akaba zu schicken, meinte Dayan: ‘Absoluter Selbstmord.’
Allon fand, der Ministerpräsident solle den Staatschefs der Welt verkünden, dass die Ägypter angegriffen hätten. Minuten später werde Israel dann reagieren. Der Ministerpräsident werde zwar eine Lüge riskieren, die Wahrheit würden jedoch nur die Historiker erfahren. ‘Ich glaube nicht, dass die Amerikaner den Ereignissen auf den Grund gehen werden’, sagte Allon.”
Summary: The Israelis needed an alibi. They didn’t want to risk sending a ship to the Gulf of Akaba, so they decided to invent the lie of an Egyptian attack: “The Prime Minister will risk a lie but the thruth will only be found out by historians. ‘I don’t think that the Americans will go into the events’ Allon said.”

A story never mentioned in the Zionist-controlled western media.
During the so-called ‘Six Day War‘ (1967) which generated American Jewish support for the Zionist entity for the first time – Pakistani pilot Saiful Azam joined tiny Jordanian Air force. On June 5, Saiful Azam engaged four Israeli jets over Jordanian Mafraq air base. He shot down a Mystére commanded by Israeli pilot H. Boleh and damaged another that crash-landed in Israeli territory. Two days later, Jordanian air force commander sent Saiful Azam to help Iraqi air force. While piloting the Iraqi Hunter Azam shot down two of the Israeli attacking planes. Pakistani pilots shot down a total of ten Israeli jets during 1967 war without losing a pilot or aircraft.
