"Forty years have passed. Dozens of books have been written. Testimony has been released in large bundles, particularly over the past few years. And yet prime minister Golda Meir’s testimony before the commission of inquiry that investigated the lead-up to and the early days of the Yom Kippur War, released on Thursday, contained at least one glaring omission: There is no mention of the crucial September 25, 1973 meeting between Meir and King Hussein of Jordan, in which the king, fresh from meetings with Arab leaders, warned of war on two fronts."
