Gamal `Abd-u-n-Nasser should never be forgiven. He is most responsible for the 1967 defeat, which instilled and expanded in Zionism this arrogant and massive use of violence against Arabs--a factor that was always a key element in Zionism of course. Nasser's loyalty to his incompetent friend, "General" `Amir, cost us not only that war, but the successive wars that Arabs lost to Israel. This does not absolve other Arab regimes. No. But nobody has faith in the rest.
