The Context of Cairo, 1964
Arab leaders' meeting in Cairo.
Key Declaration: "The existence of Israel is a danger that threatens the Arab nation."
Implication: Collective Arab preparations for the potential "liquidation of Israel."
💡 Fun Fact: Declarations like these aren't uncommon in political rhetoric. They serve as a tool to unite various factions or countries under a common cause. Think of it like a school pep rally before the big game against a rival team.
Main Aim: To reclaim the land Palestinians lost during 1948-49.
Significance: For the first time, Arab states officially aimed for the destruction of Israel.
💡 Real-world Example: Imagine your local community creates a group to reclaim a popular park that's been taken over by another neighborhood. The stakes are way higher in the PLO’s case, but the underlying principle of reclaiming what was once theirs remains the same.
Guerrilla group within the PLO.
First raid on Israel: 1965.
Bases located in Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon.
Frequent armed raids into Israel throughout the subsequent years.
💡 Think of it as: A special team in a video game, constantly launching missions in enemy territory. They are smaller but have significant impact, with bases spread across multiple locations.
