If they did, they would have put Egypt underwater for good.

If Israel was going to lose that war, man I would have told Egypt to pull back her troops or face the consequences of Egypt being underwater

If Israel would have lost that war, there would have been a second Holocaust, right inside Israel.

At least in 1973 the Israelis still had guts and Jews outside Israel were strong for Israel.  Today not so much.
