>How did the Yom Kippur War happen?
Arabs
Arabs armies are the worst in the entire planet and there are entire studies about it. Their chain of command are literally mafias that hold information against each other making their coordination impossible. Lybia got BTFO by fuvking Chad that is practically a none country
'We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn’t have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, “Save me!” He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them.' - Leonid Brezhnev
