I can only try;

That is one of my points.

I think the money Israel got, did far more harm then good.

If they had not gotten it, Egypt might not have gotten any either.

And Israel would ahve been forced to be less socialistic and more capitalistic in order to survive.

This in turn would have made them more prosperous and they would have done it totally on their own without America havinfg any ‘right’ to tell them what they ‘must’ give up for more terrorism.

As you pointed out they lost some oil and a military base.

So they never in tended to keep it, that is yet another mistake they made.

America certainly intended to keep California.

Israel could have kept the Sinai.

If Egypt was not burdened with trying to fight Israel there would have been no reason for them to ever want any ‘treaty’ and no reason not to break one, later on.

They needed cash from America just like Israel got.

Other treaties made by other countries have both sides gaining something or one country is forced to sign as a defeated side in a war.

Egypt lost, but was allowed to negotiate as if they were on a totally equal footing with Israel but they gave up absolutely nothing tangable as an “equal partner”.

Only Israel has made such foolish treaties, no other country has ever done so.

30 years later Egypts treachery has helped bus bombings and terrorists smuggling and thousands of Kaytusha Rockets being fired into Israel.

The fact that those rockets havent killed thousand of people, was

due to G-ds miraculous protection, ‘not’ because Egypt was not aiding and abetting the terrorists, every step of the way.
