Why Arabs lost all its wars to Israel despite outnumbering Israel in weapons and manpower?

[GiannKall]

You're as Greek as Khomeini.

Learn not to judge from nationalities. Fact is that Israel was in a very difficult situation in 1973 and was saved by US through ceasefire. War on Sinai proved that Israel could not occupy Sinai indefinitely at least not easily. So they made a secret agreement to abandon it without firing a shot in exhange of Egyptian recognision. Someone could say that the war on Sinai was a military stalemate but in the end it was a victory for the Egyptians

Who said that they lost all wars? Only the 1967 war can be considered a victory for Israel. The 1948 war ended in stalemate. The 1956 war ended with Israel winning with the help of British and French but withdrawing back. And the 1973 war ended with Israel giving back Sinai

The bold part: Wasn't a stalemate ... Israel was born, don't distort history.

1956: The reversal of Suez blocking took place for commercial shipping as also Israel gained access to Tiran. The military victory was lost politically by Brits and French. Israelis got away with their objectives.

1973: It was Anwar al Saddat whose forces got stuck on the other side of the Suez inspite of being the one with initiative. And it was he, who took the initiative to bring peace to the Egypt Israeli equation ... a great but costly decision by him.

The aim of Egyptians in the war was to re-capture Sinai, and they failed.

Please first read Anwar Sadat's Biography .... to get your facts a bit in line

It was an Israeli crushing victory.The Egyptians were saved by the US as they had an entire army surrounded and the road to Cairo open

Few things
Arabs Didnt have any proper command system if all the allied arabs were had formidable commanders and unite.
They didn't trust other allies

Israeli soldiers better trained and
well use of there resource
Superior command and control
Home defence advantage


As for modern weapons both side have some modern goodies for both world powers of that time

Also add to the topic: Why Iraq (the strongest Arab army of that time) fell like a house of cards in front of the US troops and couldn't even put up a decent fight ?? What is wrong with the arab armies?

They bought commanders of iraqi forces
Incompetent Iraqi generals
Superior modern tech

Soldiers cant fight when they don't have officers to follow

All christian world wants Jesus to return, and for that Dajjal or anti-Christ is a must. So all Christian world, when they support Israel, then they want Jews to fulfill all the conditions necessary for the return of anti-Christ as soon as possible(specially destruction of Olive trees in Syria, Restoration of Temple of Solomon, Plantation of Gharqad trees and much more). And both parties know it very well. For doing that either Israelis kill, plunder, destroy, bombard, nothing worries Christian world, as for them this is all fair.
America in those days was very powerful(from 1900s to around 1970s). In fact USA won two great wars single handedly. France provided nuclear technology to Israel. America provided world best Air hardware to them, Germany provided them with best scientists and engineers(Even Uzi rifle was designed by a German Jewish engineer). They all nourished that cancer in arab land. So, Israel was never alone.
So never ever think that Israel is a small innocent country. Its basically a dagger, stabbed in arab land, handle of which is in Christian world's hand.

Good point, although I want to add, these are events that were common in that age, at least the local wars that is. So it really can't do anything for you today, or be used as guilt trip.

I wrote an essay about this in college, Israel had conviction, courage and better leaders while the Arab forces weren't resolute.

When muslims knowledge is like the one I quoted,is there any surprise the Isrealis steamrolled them ?

To say that Israel belongs to the Arabs is naught but folly

1050 BCE–930 BCE

I see no arabs coming for over 1000

Israel 1200 BCE by tribes at Joshua era

kingdom of israel at king david era (980 BCE)

Kingdom of israel at king solomon era (930BCE)

Kingdon of king herod(2000 years ago)

All Arab towns and villages in Israel and the West Bank were built on Jewish towns and even the name of Arab cities, named after the city's previous name was Jewish, and is similar to the Jewish name.
Apart from Ramla that was the capital of the Arabs who ruled in Israel
***** Not Jerusalem but Ramla(think why)

 

[Bharat Muslim]

They lost because they were too much in love with themselves being progressive and modern. They lost because they thought suckularism was the solution to their problems. They lost because of their corrupt, power hungry, suckular leaders. When individuals behave like a monkey they cannot fight like warriors, they become dependent and weak.

Logical or not... It makes an amusing read. Don't you agree?

 

[Brutas]

Comparing semitic kingdom of Israel of the past to present day Israel is preposterous. Jews in Israel today are European (Ashkhenaz) Jews from Russia, Poland, Ukraine ...etc and not mid eastern. These are people of Europe who converted and accepted judaism. In a way it's an extension of Europe !

Bedouin, dis-organized, tribal folks(not to mention busy killing each other !) of the region won't be a match for them anytime soon!

Because those wars were not a matter of Arab's own life or death. But they were certainly a matter of Israeli's life or death.

Key however is motivation.
I doubt the average Arab soldier sees any big benefit in winning a war against Israel.

These two answers, given by non-Israelis, summarize everytynig.

Arabs knew very well that Jews aren't going to kill all their men, fvck all their women, or take all ther sheep anyway.

1. The 67 war was Israeli deception on stating that Arabs were going to take it out. Essentially they were the aggressors and knew certain victory because despite being outnumbered; they possessed both a qualitatively superior and much more trained force with years of combat experience.

2. The 73 war had the Americans jumping in to save Israel, without US intervention; Israel was going to resort to nuclear weapons.

If Egypt had not attacked in 1973 then Sinai could have been part of present day Israel. So how Exactly Israel won is beyond normal comprehension. Whatever Egypt did, it got Sinai back...........That is exactly what a win is.
