  • 2. Six Days of War (Part 3)
    Mar 23 2024

    In this episode of the Transatlantic Book Club, we dive into the gripping narrative of Michael B. Oren's "Six Days of War: June 1967 and the Making of the Modern Middle East." This meticulously researched work sheds light on the momentous Six-Day War, a conflict that reshaped the Middle East and continues to influence the region to this day.

    Oren's comprehensive account takes readers through the complex

    political landscape leading up to the war, the strategic decisions made by key

    players, and the swift, decisive actions taken by Israel in response to the

    mounting tensions with its Arab neighbors. The book explores the roles of major

    global powers, such as the United States and the Soviet Union, and how their

    interests and actions influenced the course of the war.

    We discuss the book's key themes, including the legacy of the

    war, its impact on Arab-Israeli relations, and its lasting implications for the

    region and the world.

    Join the Transatlantic Book Club as we explore the historical

    context, military strategies, and diplomatic maneuverings that defined the

    Six-Day War, and discover how this brief but consequential conflict continues

    to shape the modern Middle East.
