Abstract
The 1967 war resulted in a decisive victory for israel over the combined forces of Egypt, Syria and Jordan. By launching a preemptive air strike, the Israeli Air Force was able to wipe out virtually all of Egypt's air force in one swift, massive attack. This guaranteed israel air superiority for the rest of the war. Consequently, after trouncing Syria in the Golan Heights and Jordan in the West Bank and Jerusalem, israel was in the possession of a great deal of territory: the Sinai Peninsula, the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights. While Sinai was returned, today israel still retains control of the Golan Heights, the West Bank, and Jerusalem. Of these three, the West Bank may be the most hotly contested region of all. Internal debate over the fate of this area continues to rage among the people of israel. Conquest over the West Bank unleashed heavy arguments. There are two primary schools of thought on the subject. The first is more militant in nature.
