Egypt, Syria and Jordan 1967. Although it is widely alleged that this was in response to a joint plan by these countries to attack Israel, the military offense was all Israeli and without warning or any actual attack.
Actually, the US and UK gathered intelligence from Egypt, Syria and Jordan, independently came to the conclusion that none of those countries was building up for war and none of those countries' leaders at the time wanted war. They then shared this intelligence with Israel and gave them the green light to attack.
Egypt and Syria, 1973. Note that while Egypt and Syria had attacked Israeli positions, these were to reoccupy land occupied by Israel in 1966 and Israel's borders were never threatened; the Syrians even stopped on the Golan when they could have carried on.
No, that was a surprise attack by the Arabs against Israel. The first, it has to be said, but you can't blame Israel for that one.
Kids, these days. Back in my time, we had to fart ourselves! And we liked it! Wake up and smell the beans, no wonder your butts are getting so big, you aren't exercising them properly! Get off my lawn!
Wow, you must be old, grandpa. When I was a kid you had to spend a couple of bucks on a dedicated device to make noise! And it just had buttons, no fancy screen or touch interface!
Now get off my lawn and take your walker with you!
