The Ramadan War: The Battle for Dignity

[500]

There will be no peace btw Mulsims and Jews till the end of the world. We have tried it in the past and i'm not talking about israel, Palestine or arab nations.....you have to read the entire Muslim history....from past 600 and plus years we are trying to do peace agreements but jews always stab in your back. This is the reality so we have to face these facts.

What backstabbing are you talking about?

We have two totally opposite views here, and are not going to find common ground.
So unless you want to discuss this forever, let's leave it here and instead see what the future will bring.

Unusual MiG-21 gun camera sequence shows progress of dogfight with Israeli air force Mirage. MiG-21 is on the Mirage’s tail in lower left at start of combat and follows Mirage in steep climbing turn to score hits with 23-mm cannon. Mirage fuel catches fire as Israeli pilot continues in steep climb. This was one of 22 gun camera confirmed air victories by a single Egyptian air force fighter regiment.

Egyptian air force MiG-21 (note air speed boom lower left) makes a strafing attack on the Israeli air field at Ras Nasrani at the extreme southern end of Sinai near Sharm al Sheik in photos above. Attack was made as part of opening Egyptian offensive on afternoon of Oct. 6, 1973. Note three Israeli air force Mirage fighters parked(arrows along taxiway in the open (above). MiG-21 gun camera sight centers on two Mirages scrambling down runway for takeoff (circles) while bombs from other EAF strike planes explode on airfield.

Interesting..

I always wonder how could tanks came that close during the fight!!

Night battles were intense in Golan and Deversoire, Dayan visited the field that afternoon, was visibly disturbed by the destruction. Reshef commented to the minister of defense, Look at this valley of death. To that, Dayan responded, What you people have done here!

Dayan also expressed the grief of the battle as he recalled Chinese Farm in his memoirs: "I am no novice at war or battle scenes, but I have never seen such a sight. Here was a vast field of slaughter stretching as far as the eye could see."

The ferocity of the fighting during the Battle of Gala village (Chinese farm), is highlighted by these burn-out wrecks of a T-55 and an M-48 Megach, which are at little more than a barrel length apart.
