TOWER AND FLIGHTS (An AmericaOnCoffee Blog) 
The Yom Kippur War lasted 16 to 18 days. The June War by contrast only lasted 6 days. Why did the Israeli Army stop about 60 miles from Cairo?
During the cease fire negotiations, the American Secretary of State, informed the Egyptians that Israel had bullets for 9 days. This War caused a huge trauma. Egyptian Arab pride, dignity, and honor — restored by Sadat when Israel agreed to return the captured Sinai. Never back your enemy into a corner – no other choice but to fight. The Egyptians fought well, very well, and still suffered crushing defeats which resulted in Israel surrounding an Egyptian army. Just as Israel did not march its troops into Cairo, so too Israel did not crush and humiliate the Egyptian 3rd Army.
TEL AVIV, Oct. 25 — The Egyptian III Corps, estimated to number 15,000 to 30,000 men, remained trapped by the Israelis today, unable to acquire fresh supplies of water and food.
It was generally felt here that the plight of the Egyptian force was at the root of the increasingly tense international situation, in which the Soviet Union threatened to send troops to the Middle East and the United States warned it against doing so.
Israel announced that she planned to supply the encircled Egyptians with blood plasma but said that they were in no immediate danger of dying of thirst or hunger.
Israeli spokesmen also said that there was no fighting or violation of the cease‐fire by either side during the day on either the Egyptian or the Syrian fronts and that the United ations Truce Supervision Organization’s observer teams were moving into position.
Egypt’s III Corps is cut off in a narrow pocket on the eastern bank of the Suez Canal south of the Great Bitter Lake and in a small enclave embracing the city of Suez at the southern end of the canal.
If the isolation of the Egyptian force is very much prolonged, the III Corps might be forced to surrender or ask for free passage through Israeli lines.
Such a move would reduce Egypt’s holdings on the eastern hank of the canal, all of which she had seized soon after the war began on Oct. 6, to a narrow strip running from Qautara to a point opposite Ismailia—only about one‐quarIsmailia—only about one‐quarter of the canal’s 100‐mile length.
To prevent this, Israeli sources pointed out, Egypt must hope to force Israel to relax at least partially the stranglehold her forces west of the canal have around the III Corps positions. This, the sources said, explained Egypt’s demand in the United Nations for a restoration of the ceasefire lines of last Monday and the reports that Soviet forces might be introduced into the area.
Israel announced that although the Egyptian troops were unable to get food and water, they were in no immediate danger of dying of thirst or hunger. The Israelis said they planned to provide the encircled troops with blood plasma.

Israeli Movements
Israeli sources have conceded that their army west of the Suez canal advanced nine miles to encircle the city of Suez on Tuesday and then drove further to the port of Adabiya, to the southwest, totally isolating the Egyptian III Corps. They said that the Israelis had moved only after Egyptian forces had violated the ceasefire, which began at 6:52 P.M. local time Monday.
But, 4n Israeli officer, said, by Monday evening the Israeli Army had not only got astride the two main roads from Suez city westward to Cairo but had also reached a point where a third, subsidiary, road winding through mountains to the coast south of Suez city reaches the main roads.
“Even if we moved back to the positions of Monday night we would still have land communications effectively cut,” said the source. “That junction was, from the start, the main objective of our armored force after it crossed the canal and began swinging south.”
In his news conference in Washington today Secretary of State Kissinger said that the United States had already supported and would continue to support resolutions in the United Nations Security Council calling for a return to the Monday night cease‐fire positions.
Grave Displeasure
As seen from Tel Aviv, however, the United States has shown a grave displeasure at the prospect of the use of Soviet troops to intimidate Israel into such a withdrawal.
One official said, about the possibility that Soviet troops might be put into the area: “We are not oblivious of what, is going on around us, but we are not going to make any decision about cease‐fire lines until we have to.”
Defense Minister Moshe Dayan told journalists who accompanied him on a trip to the Israeli enclave on the western bank of the canal that “Israel has not been and is not fighting Russians but rather Egyptians and Syrians.”
Although the United States was publicly committed to the Security Council resolution calling for a restoration of the Monday cease‐fire lines, some sources here said that the United States had not made private, direct demands on Israel.
Unusual Cabinet Session
However, the Israeli Cabinet was called into an unusual session at 6 A.M. local time today and met for four hours to discuss what informants said was a message from the Israeli Ambassador to the United States, Simcha Dinitz.
An Israeli military spokesman, Col. Nachman Karni, said tonight that Egypt had requested the International Committee of the Red Cross to ask Israel to permit the shipment of blood plasma to the isolated III Corps for wounded men.
Colonel Karni said that “it was found to be quite complicated” for Egyptian helicopters to reach their own forces with the plasma.
He said that Israel had agreed to furnish the plasma, which would be delivered as soon as practicable by Israeli or Red Cross vehicles on the ground.
Israeli spokesmen several days ago began to refer to the isolated forces as the Third Army. In military jargon a more precise word, informants agreed, would be that it was a corps—a formation of two to four divisions. Two or more corps constitute an army.
The isolated III Corps is known to include the best units in the Egyptian Army—the Fourth Armored Division and at least one infantry division.
Colonel Karni said today that “they are not starving or dying of thirst,” although Israel has cut the water pipelines to the eastern bunk. He said that as well‐organized military formation the corps had gone into battle with water‐tank trucks and food. He said he could not, however, estimate how long these would last.
The colonel was asked if Israel’s military leaders would oppose by force any attempt by Egypt to go over Israeli‐controlled territory to resupply her forces in the isolated pocket.
He said, “You have got me indeep water,” but then indicated that, on humanitarian grounds, Israel would probably not deny water and food to the III Corps when needed.
However, other Israelis made it clear, that Israel would be much more ready to supply water and food herself than to permit Egyptian safe transit to do so.
“You must remember,” said a well‐informed source, “that cease‐fires are nothing new in the Middle East. In the 1948 war of independence there were several and the Arabs always opposed permitting us to resupply Jewish Jerusalem.”
He recalled that Col. Gamal Abdel Nasser, later the President of Egypt, had been among Egyptian troops isolated in a pocket in the 1948‐49 war who had been denied resupply by the Israelis and had marched, disarmed, out of their encirclement.
There was no sense of public alarm or panic in Israel about the strains between the United States and the Soviet Union. Israeli spokesmen said that they had no independent intelligence that Soviet forces were on their way to Egypt.
Jewish Groups to Hold Joint Drive for Israel
Mayor John V. Lindsay joined two Jewish philanthropic organizations yesterday in announcing a $280‐million fund‐raising campaign to aid Israel.
The money, raised by the United Jewish Appeal and the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies, will also be used to meet local educational, health and social service needs, according to Laurence A. Tisch, the U.J.A. President.
At a news conference at U.J.A. headquarters, the Mayor said the $280‐million goal was “critically important.”
He said news of the drive would be a boost for Israeli morale “as tremendous as any sought for military or political victory.”
The campaign Is to begin immediately and last, through most of next year.
Israel does not seek to rule an empire. Israeli leadership plays the long game to work together with Arabs and Muslims. Should Israeli forces capture an Arab Capital City, force an unconditional Arab surrender. Israel has backed Arab pride and honor into a corner. Israel seeks Arab prosperity. To cause the dessert to bloom. Which dessert? The Sinai and Sahara dessert. To free Egyptian farm land crop production from the waters of the Nile river. The Nile dam dispute threatens a war of exhaustion for Egypt. Israel agreed to return the Sinai, under the leadership of Prime Minister Begin, in exchange for the pride and honor of Egyptian peace with Israel.
The bravery of President Sadat, cost him his life. But Israel following the horrors of the October War of ’73, has come to respect the strength and integrity of Egyptian pride and honor. Egypt the first Arab country who rejected ‘blood libel’ slander and lies. Causing climate change. Rain in Sinai and Sahara = forests, and crops. Egypt need not necessarily have to fight an African War over the waters of the Nile river. Syria, has it not similarly witnessed similar behavior by the rulers of Turkey?
The Canal Project joining the Mediterranean Sea with the Salt Sea could serve as the shared mutual interests, the cement that binds an Israeli/Egyptian economic alliance. The objective of the alliance to cut a wide deep canal. To convert a large percentage of Mediterranean water into Hydrogen and Oxygen gases. Causing those new Sea Waters to mix well with the brine water of the Dead Sea.
Israeli education of captured stateless Arab refugee populations would in the future focus their education upon agriculture education. Arab pride and honor demands that Arab and Muslim followers of the Koran repatriate their stateless Arab refugee populations following the Israeli victory of its 2nd Independence 1967 War. Israel seeks that Egypt, together with the States of Northern Africa forge a working trade route which succeeds to accomplish the primary trade of Israel with Egypt and North Africa.
A trade route that unites the economies of Egypt to Western Sahara. This trade route could quickly expand and include other countries, forging an economic union comparable to the EU. The unique quality of the Jewish State, HaShem has a brit to cause the rains to fall in their due season and places. This blessing of the Jewish State therefore in possession of the power required to cause it rain consistently in the Sinai and Sahara. The dignity and honor of the Jewish State no less than the dignity and honor of Saudi Arabia. But unlike the European barbarians who expelled Jews from living within their lands, destitute and suffering absolute poverty. Israel commits to educating our stateless captured Arab refugee populations in agriculture.
To bring rain to the Sinai and the Sahara transforms the Africa into an economic power house. Once crops grow on these former dessert lands, Africa will need share croppers. The captured stateless Arab refugee populations, they leave Israel with dignity and honor – Israel gives respect to these repatriated people. The new Arab citizens of North Africa, they return to their people and homelands employed as trained farmers.

Then you know that Nixion did a bait and switch in US domestic and foreign policy; he took the dollar of its commodity basis and established the petro-dollar monopoly — which converted the US dollar into fiat monopoly like fake money. Traditionally governments confronted by War or other events which require massive public spending Germany in WWl switched its currency to a fiat paper money. France during this same period, it sought to pay for the huge expenses of War by instituting National taxes.
Wilson forshadowed the Great War by establishing a National Bank, the 3rd National US bank, which he named ‘Federal Reserve’, in 1913 – one year before the outbreak of the First World War.
President Wilson switch the American revolution which rejected the European Central/National Bank, like for example: the Bank of England. Wilson called the shot, that the US would align itself with Britain. Since that strategic move, the US and Britain have had a faithful unbroken alliance.
After Nixon, Presidents Bush and Clinton sought to establish an unbreakable alliance with Europe. When the 2008 housing bubble burst under the watch of Bush #2, Clinton, Bush #2, Obama sought to cement the “New World Order”. Where did the US government primarily invest its”petro-dollar based paper money”? In America or Europe? Something like ten times greater an investment into the stability of the EU – Britexit came in the era of President Trump.
The Triple Alliance. President Wilson rejected the vision of President George Washington,,,make no Entangling Alliances with Europe. Wilson followed the lead which Lincoln set. Lincoln rejected the vision of democracy of President Jefferson, the lieutenant of President Washington alone and together with Hamilton, shot dead by Aaron Burr the traitor.
Hamilton did not reject establishing an alliance with chosen European States. Benjamin Franklin, Ambassador to France (1776–1785), favored a US\French alliance against the British.
Notice today where France stands the odd man out. France under de Gaul refused to join NATO. France decreed a National income tax upon all French citizens, during WWl to pay for the war, just as did Wilson the previous year.
The US under Wilson maintained a US gold based economy; Germany switched its currency, at this same time, to a fiat currency to pay the costs of the Great War. The French during the period of the “Belle Époque, 1870 – 1914, Paris minted gold napoléon currencies.
The Nixon bait and switch turned the US dollar into a fiat paper money monopoly currency. The Central Bank, being the monopoly which prints US money and choose to increase or decrease the currency of the US dollar within the General Market place.
Post Civil War the US Radical Republican Congress, reduced the money supply of US Greenbacks by about 1/3rd, this produced the exact same results when the Federal Reserve Central Banking Monopoly reduced the money supply by about 1/3rd after ‘Black’ Monday and Thursday 1929. Economic disaster and Social chaos.
After Nixon dismantled the gold\silver commodity based US dollar – marked the end of the ‘Golden Age’ of the Pax American Empire. A new era Nixon’s petro-dollar, the ‘Petroleum Age’ of the Pax American Empire had begun.

Good history. I believe that real earthly wealth are the quantity and quality of things that a person possesses. I genuinely believe that money will disappear. If the US and other countries were smart, they would rollback their economies to simpler times less expensive times, (devalue wealth) impacting goods, services, real estate and wages. This would be a powerful decision and act.

Truth, the 8th middah attribute of the Oral Torah logic system which the church categorically denies the existence of the Oral Torah. Yet throughout recorded history of the last 2000 years of exile from our homelands, church officialdom denied the existence of the Oral Torah because it confused the Talmud which contains Oral Torah logic formats within its pages with the Talmudic codification of Oral Torah. You can not codify logic. A huge fundamental error.
