Nope, sonny. Egypt threatened to blockade Aquba but got word from DC to cool it. No way was Egypt capable of any tactical advantage in the Med.
1. No blockade.

The Egyptians closed the Straites of Tiran (Gulf of Aquaba) and Suez canal to Israeli shipping. That is a blockade.

The Syrians lobbed shells into the settlements after the settlers destroyed the Syrian crops.
Just like Israel is currently lacing Egyptian chewing gum with pheremones.
There were no "settlers" in 1967. (Unless you consider any and all of Israel a settlement.) There were only Jewish communities in internationally recognized borders.

As for the Jordanians? They offered the Allenby Bridge to Tel-Aviv and were dismissed.

Who invaded whom? Jordan invaded Israel 2 days into the war. Try again.

3. Dream on

4. What does "JKL" mean?

Ah, so now you admit Israel was not attacked; 'bout time.

JDL

Israel launched a pre-emptive strike.
Israel was not attacked.
Israel was hassled
Israel stunned the Arabs in retaliation; they deserved it...but Israel was not attacked...
Therefore the United Nations issued 242 and until Israel accepts that verdict there will be terrible atrocities on both sides.
Israel thumbs its nose. Arafat thumbs his nose and struts as if he actually has some Authority.
It is way past time for Israel to withdraw. It is time for Arafat to declare himself Chairman of the Central Committee again and allow the election of a Prime Minister who can talk to the Israeli PM and let Chairman Arafat talk to Israel's President.

If your crowd of zealots would tell the truth for a change then the world would be less inclined to believe the Arab lies. Counting bodies and playing victim will get you nowhere. Rewriting history won't even allow Israel moral supremacy.

Just in case you don't understand?

Israel launched a pre-emptive strike; Israel was not attacked and given the circumstances overplayed their hand, thus setting up decades of killing.

Did the Arabs instigate their own destruction? Yes, but the world doesn't accept it.

Close down the JDL and Hamas.
Gag the right and left wing zealots on both sides.

Don't try again, until you can tell the truth.
