#In 1656 a full scale war broke out when Israel attacked the
Sinai-Egypt, East of Suiz Canal .(Upto 1956 canal has been co-owned by Britain
and France with both countries befitting from the Profit. General Abdul Naseer
of Egypt believed that the profit should go to Egypt.) Britain and France
helped the Israel to plan out its attack. Plan was simple Israel would attack
Sinai ,While Britain and France would attack and occupy Suiz canal. UNSC (United Nation Security Council) Voted
on Israel's Withdrawal but Britain and France Vetoed it. UNSC Transferred its powers to UNGA(UN General
assembly); UNGA, Using its peace principle called for a cease-fire on 5 Nov
1956. UNGA created UNEF(UN Emergency Force to to maintain/Oversea cease-fire
between Israel and Egypt. Just One day later Britain and France Launched their
attack on Suiz Canal and UN seems Powerless to stop them . However under
pressure from US(United States) they had to pull out their forces from Suiz
canal. Thus UNEF(United Nations Emergency Force ) remained their till it was
asked by General Naseer of Egypt to leave in 1967.
#1967::In reaction to this , Israel launched series of attacks on
Egypt, Jordan, Syria ,and Iraq. This war lasted for 6 days. Fighting stopped
when UNSC ordered a ceasefire and adopted resolution 242.
#UNSC RESOLUTION 242 is till now considered as the Broader
frame work of peace to Middle East.
Resolution 242 : Resolution 242 required Israel to withdraw
from The West Bank, Gaza , and other Arab lands it had occupied in 1967 war, and
also called for a solution to the Palestinian refugee problem while recognizing
the right of every state concerned in the Middle east. All the involved nations
Signed the 242 except Syria. However each side Arab and Jews interpreted each
point differently. Each side put a different emphasis on each point.
With Such a distrust , it was clear that the dispute will
continue with more Conflict to Follow. (Continue........................
