Egypt knew that they’d be attacked if they blockaded Israel by sea and did it anyway. They then massed troops on the border, only to get whooped. Yom Kippur was then started to take back the territory lost in the six day war. Which was a war provoked by Egypt. even if we accept that the PLO’s attack was anything but provoked by Israeli apartheid and ethnic cleansing, Killing amassadors to foreign nations is obviously the correct solution to this sort of thing. you do realize they didn’t just fight the PLO right?
