Arab-Israeli Blitzkrieg

We’ve finally reached the climax of the Cold War in the Middle
East: the 6-Day War of 1967 and its dramatic sequel, the Yom Kippur
War of 1973. The outcomes of both wars are well known; less so the
political machinations leading up to them. We’ll do our best to
take you behind the scenes of the corridors of power and into the
minds of Arab and Israeli leaders. No one wanted war, yet war
arrived. Why? These two wars were transformative: Nasserism was out
and radicalism was in, and in the ongoing clash of civilisations in
the Middle East, a new and improved player emerged from the
wreckage of war: radical Islamism. Listen to exclusive bonus
