Cherif loutfi in Sinai

A BRIEF HISTORY ABOUT THE SINAI


In 1967 we lost the Sinai to Israel....And this was  due to our ex-regime of Nasser who was never prepared and did not estimate the confrontation with more precision, they almost gave the Sinai to the enemy on a gold platter - This was during what was known afterwards by the six days war.

The Israeli believed they could stay and live in the Sinai for ever
They built a very strong fortification defenses all over the 150 kms lenght of the Suez Canal
It was a huge and massively fortified line that they called the Barlev line.
The Israelis have dug the earth and constructed underground tunnels fortified with armed concrete, then they filled it with all the ammunitions and Weapon of Mass Destruction they could get from their biggest ally theUSA
they covered its ceilings with big steel channels and with rocks and stones, then covered with earth to protect them from Egyptian artillery
on the other side of the Suez Canal.
They also built a huge artificial sand mountains more than twenty meters high
to make the Egyptians lose any hope in crossing the canal's water
The Israelis also added big containers and filled it with Napalm Jelly and other chemical materials to let loose into the canal water to burn anyone who would dream of crossing to the side where they were hiding
Dayan the chief of the Israeli army once said "No force on this earth can cross and destroy our Barlev line, even if they use Atomic Bombs"

Then came our glorious president ANWAR EL SADAT a very clever, courageous and wise man ,
he taught the Israelis the lesson of their lives ,  In 1973  In spite of all the fortifications mentioned on Barlev line the Egyptian soldiers crossed the canal in small rubber boats and opened big holes in the artificial sand mountains by pumping and aiming very strong jets of water to the sand walls , this was after the Egyptian commandos closed and shutdown all the Napalm openings made by the Israelis under the canal water.
Egyptian tanks crossing the Suez Canal on floating bridges that the Engineers constructed only in a couple of hours
The Egyptians crossed the suez canal back to the sinai on the 150 km front , and in only six hours
The Egyptians destroyed the strongly fortified Barleve line, and made it collapse on the head of the Israelis soldiers in one of the most unexpected and most audacious attack on any army in the history of all wars
The Israelis where taken by surprise some run like rabbits, others surrendered without firing one shot

The charge and the attack was so unexpected that some of the Israeli soldiers were taken prisoners

Hundreds of Israelis officers and soldiers taken prisoners by the brave Egyptians
"THIS CAN HAPPEN AGAIN"

They were captured inside their bunkers before they even knew what was going on
( As the saying goes ) : " They were taken with their pants down" !!!!)


What you see here is a group of Israelis officers surrendering to the Egyptians the Israelis are handing over their flag to the Egyptian officer

The Israelis used their Helicopters in transporting the wounded more than fighting. . .We expelled the Israeli army from Sinai in one of the most relentless battles, we cleaned the Sinai land from their presence
forever and for good

Egypt could have occupied all of Israel, but as usual when Golda Meir the Israeli prime minister at that time cried for help and was on the brinks of commiting suicide, to overcome Israeli losses, America flew US$2.2 billion worth of arms and ammunition to Israel aboard its giant C5 Galaxy planes. The airlift brought 22,000 tons of tanks, artillery, helicopters and ammunitions to Israel over a one-month period. Involving more than 560 sorties, it was the biggest such operation since the airlift to Berlin after the end of World War II. All this was to replace the airplanes, the helicopters, the tanks, that were destroyed by the brave Egyptian army.


An Israeli Helicopter ( or better say an American Helicopter ), is shot down
