The Six Day War 1967: Sinai (Osprey Campaign 212)


The Six Day War 1967: Sinai (Osprey Campaign 212)
Osprey Publishing | 2009 | ISBN: 1846033632 | English | 100 Pages | PDF | 33,5 MB

In May 1967, Egypt expelled the United Nations peacekeeping forces stationed in the Sinai desert and deployed its army along its border with Israel, its moves coordinated with those of Jordan and Syria. By June, Israel realized that the international community would not act, and launched a pre-emptive strike against the combined Arab forces. The ensuing Six Day War was a crushing defeat for the Arab world, one that tripled the area controlled by Israel and which sowed the seeds for the Yom Kippur War of 1973 and the continuing strife in the region.

9/11 The Ultimate Truth

9/11 The Ultimate Truth
Publisher: Red Pill Press | ISBN: 1897244223 | edition 2006 | PDF | 433 pages | 12,9 mb

In the years since the 9/11 attacks, dozens of books have sought to explore the truth behind the official version of events that day - yet to date, none of these publications has provided a satisfactory answer as to WHY the attacks occurred and who was ultimately responsible for carrying them out. Taking a broad, millennia-long perspective, Laura Knight-Jadczyk's 9/11: The Ultimate Truth uncovers the true nature of the ruling elite on our planet and presents new and ground-breaking insights into just how the 9/11 attacks played out. 9/11: The Ultimate Truth makes a strong case for the idea that September 11, 2001 marked the moment when our planet entered the final phase of a diabolical plan that has been many, many years in the making. It is a plan developed and nurtured by successive generations of ruthless individuals who relentlessly exploit the negative aspects of basic human nature to entrap humanity as a whole in endless wars and suffering in order to keep us confused and distracted to the reality of the man behind the curtain. Drawing on historical and genealogical sources, Knight-Jadczyk eloquently links the 9/11 event to the modern-day Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Asia and Europe: The Development and Different Dimensions of ASEM


The Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) is a partnership of the fifteen European Union member states, the European Commission and ten East and Southeast Asian countries. Asia and Europe provides the first comprehensive review of this enterprise and examines what exactly it is and how it came about. The book both gives a chronological and systematic overview of the conception, birth and development of ASEM and contextualises ASEM within the theoretical frameworks of the realists, social constructionists and liberal-institutionalists. ASEM is therefore examined in the framework of summit diplomacy, as an instrument for regional integration and as an institution for regime creation. The author gives a clear assessment of ASEM by sieving the rhetoric from the reality, and examining its promises and potential. This study is not only important for us in understanding the state of Asia-Europe relations but also, and more significantly, it provides a sober look into the issue of international cooperation and warns that the health and wealth of international cooperation that underlies the global order depends on enlightened leadership and wise statecraft.
