A Harold Mayer production. Written on screen: The trouble in Israel goes even beyond what you have just seen. There is trouble in the fact of 300,000 unabsorbed immigrants… Trouble in the needs of energetic youth, striving to build a constructive life but still without the necessary education and training to do so… Trouble caring for the ill and the aged who have arrived after a lifetime of longing, and must now be provided for. Solutions to these troubles have traditionally been the responsibility of the Jews of the United States and the free world. Under the present difficult circumstances we must now, more than ever before, continue to maintain the vital humanitarian programs of health, higher education, and welfare for immigrant absorption, that we initiated. While the people of Israel pledged to defend and preserve their freedom, we must pledge that those whom we brought to the promised shores to find a new life shall not be denied the tools to build that life. Edward Ginsberg, Gen. Chairman. United Jewish Appeal.
The Six-Day War, also known as the June War, 1967 Arab-Israeli War, or Third Arab-Israeli War, was fought between 5 and 10 June 1967 by Israel and the neighboring states of Egypt (known at the time as the United Arab Republic), Jordan, and Syria. Jerusalem, Israel's capital, was reunited. For the first time in 19 years, the Old City was open to believers of all faiths and Jews could access their holiest sites. The political importance of the 1967 War was immense. Israel demonstrated again that it was able to change the regional balance. Egypt and Syria would launch an attack in 1973 in an attempt to reclaim their lost territory
