The Israel Defence Forces consist of reservists, with every able-bodied civilian of eligible age a member of a reserve unit. This book is an album of the Six Day War and deals exclusively with the battles of the Israel Defence Forces. The battles alone form the subject of this volume.
ISRAEL DEFENCE FORCES – THE SIX DAY WAR was edited by Mordechai Bar-On (1928 – 2021), an Israeli historian, Chief Education Officer of the Israel Defense Forces and politician, serving as a member of the Knesset for Ratz from 1984 to 1986. He was a senior research fellow at Yad Izhak Ben-Zvi Institute, Jerusalem. He served in the Israel Defense Forces as General Moshe Dayan's bureau chief during the Sinai Campaign. The author of the text was Nathan Shaham (1928-2018), an Israeli writer. Shaham was born in Tel Aviv and was a member of Kibbutz Beit Alfa from 1945-2018. He served with the Palmach in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. He was the son of Eliezer Steinman, the Hebrew author and essayist. Shaham was editor-in-chief of Sifriat Poalim Publishing House. He was Israel's cultural attaché in the United States from 1977–80, and a former vice-chairman of the Israel Broadcasting Authority. This is a penetrating study of a conflict that, although brief, helped establish a Middle Eastern template that is operational today. The Israeli air force wiped out the entire air fleet of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Iraq within the first few hours and then, over less than a week, Israel’s army pushed the nation’s borders further out. The war had massive repercussions, shifting power away from Egypt to Palestine and Jordan, and it quickened the rise of Islamist and Baathist forces alike, to say nothing of many local sectarian militias.
