Particularly informative and interesting are Dn Jarring's unique observations and insights, based on his extensive knowledge of the area and the Central Asian Uighurs and their language.

  • The Arab-Israel War of 1967 1967 Was the Year of the Six-Day War
    The Arab-Israel War of 1967 1967 was the year of the six-day war. Here we bring together its impact on Israel and on the Jewish communities in the Arab countries; United States Middle East policy and United Nations deliberations; effects on the East European Communist bloc, its citizens, and its Jewish communities, and American opinion. For discus- sions of reactions in other parts of the world, see the reviews of individual countries. THE EDITORS Middle East Israel A ALL aspects of Israel's life in 1967 were dominated by the explosion of hostilities on June 5. Two decades of Arab-Israel tension culminated in a massive combined Arab military threat, which was answered by a swift mobilization of Israel's citizen army and, after a period of waiting for international action, by a powerful offensive against the Egyptian, Jor- danian and Syrian forces, leading to the greatest victory in Jewish military annals. During the weeks of danger preceding the six-day war, Jewry throughout the world rallied to Israel's aid: immediate financial support was forthcoming on an unprecedented scale, and thousands of young volunteers offered per- sonal participation in Israel's defense, though they arrived too late to affect the issue (see reviews of individual countries). A new upsurge of national confidence swept away the morale crisis that had accompanied the economic slowdown in 1966. The worldwide Jewish reaction to Israel's danger, and the problems associated with the extension of its military rule over a million more Arabs, led to a reappraisal of atti- tudes towards diaspora Jewry.

  • THE RUSSIANS ARE GOING: SADAT, NIXON and the SOVIET PRESENCE in EGYPT, 1970-1971 by Craig A
    THE RUSSIANS ARE GOING: SADAT, NIXON AND THE SOVIET PRESENCE IN EGYPT, 1970-1971 By Craig A. Daigle* New evidence reveals that the United States was well aware of Sadat's intention to remove the Soviet military presence from Egypt and took steps over the summer of 1971 to ensure this end. We now know that President Nixon's decision to suspend the supply of aircrafts to Israel at the end of June and his decision to press for reopening the Suez Canal as part of an interim agreement between Egypt and Israel had as much to do with getting Soviets out of Egypt as it did with finding a peace agreement between Egypt and Israel. The decision by Egyptian President Anwar hurried a letter to Leonid Brezhnev, al-Sadat to remove the Soviet military claiming the United States had "no presence from his country during the advanced knowledge of the recent events in summer of 1972 has often been viewed as Egypt," and assured the Soviet Premier that the first step on the road to the October the United States would "take no unilateral War the following year. By removing the actions in the Middle East" as a result of Soviet presence, it has been argued, Sadat the recent developments.(5) was also removing the major obstacle Early scholarly treatment of Sadat's preventing him from engaging in another decision to remove the Soviet military war with Israel.(1) Though Sadat insisted at presence has generally fallen in line with the time that the expulsion of the Soviets this official account.

  • “In the Service of Peace” Remembering Col Justin
    “In the service of peace” Remembering Col Justin MacCarthy DSM (1914 – 1960) Colonel Richard Heaslip (Retd) In July 1960 Belgium granted independence to the Congo its former colony and the country erupted in widespread violence. International concern resulted in the involvement of the United Nations, which established a peacekeeping force designated UNOC (United Nations Operation in the Congo) to maintain public order. The Irish Government responded very promptly and positively to a request from the United Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold to participate in the new peacekeeping mission and agreed to provide an infantry battalion for the Congo. The initial request was followed very quickly by a further request for a second battalion which was also acceded to by Government. The Congo mission would become the country’s third UN military mission and historically the first occasion when armed Defence Forces units were deployed on overseas duty. Preceding UNOC, Ireland’s contribution to UN operations was in the form of unarmed military observers first with UNOGIL (United Nations Observation Group in Lebanon) in June 1958 and subsequently with UNTSO (United Nations Truce Supervision Organisation) in December 1958. Col Justin MacCarthy was about to become the Defence Forces’ link to all three missions. Lt Col MacCarthy (6th Cadet Class), a graduate of the Camberley Command & Staff Course, with previous service in a range of command, staff and instructional appointments, had been selected to lead the Irish contribution to UNOGIL. On arrival in Lebanon his duty station became HQ UNOGIL in Beirut, where within five weeks of his arrival he was promoted to Colonel following a request to the Irish national authorities by Gen Odd Bull (Norway) who led the UNOGIL mission.

  • The Fall of Jerusalem, 1967
    THE FALL OF JERUSALEM, 1967 S. ABDULLAH SCHLEIFER * Monday morning, June 5, 1967. At 0850 an Aide-de-Camp called the Palace in Amman to report to King Hussein Radio Cairo's communique that Israel had attacked Egypt. By 0900 the Egyptian General Abdul-Moneim Riad - who had arrived in Amman with a small group of staff officers to take command of the Jordanian front a few days before the war began - had received a coded message in Amman from UAR Field Marshal Amer. The UAR, the message said, had put out of action 75 per cent of the Israeli planes that had attacked the Egyptian airports and the UAR Army, having met the Israeli land attack in Sinai, was going over to a counter-offensive. "Therefore Marshal Amer orders the opening of a new front by the commander of the Jordanian forces and the launching of offensive operations according to the plan drawn up last night."' In Arab Jerusalem, Ishak Duzdar and Bahjat Abu Gharbiyeh, leaders of the civilian resistance committee formed at the end of May, were at the Governorate demanding arms. Governor Anwar Khattib had already called the army and had been promised they would be delivered that day. The two men returned to the Old City to await the rest of their staff at resistance committee HQs. And at 0910 hours, according to the Churchills' account (based on the Israeli War Diaries) the Israeli commander of the Central Front, General Uzzi Narkiss was on the telephone on the other side of the cease-fire line, talking with Teddy Kollek, Mayor of Israeli Jerusalem.

  • From Khotan and Kashghar: Gunnar Jarring and the Jarring Collection Gunilla Törnvall
    From Khotan and Kashghar: Gunnar Jarring and the Jarring Collection Gunilla Törnvall Introduction In 1982 the Swedish diplomat and philologist Gunnar Jarring (1907-2002) donated his unique collection of manuscripts from Eastern Turkestan to the University Library in Lund. It is an extremely rich collection of Eastern Turkestan manuscripts, the third largest in the world. The manuscripts come from the periphery of the Islamic world in Central Asia, nowadays the Chinese province of Xinjiang, from cities like Kashghar and Yarkand, situated along the old Silk Road. The Jarring Collection consists of 560 manuscripts, of which many are miscellanies, dating from the 16th to the 20th century. Gunnar Jarring bought part of the collection himself during his stay in the area in 1929- 1930 while making field studies for his doctoral thesis in Turkish languages.
