TJS S5E14 – The Evacuation of the Sinai Peninsula

People like to talk about the price of peace, but they rarely define what peace actually means. This makes evaluating the price impossible. In April of 1982 Israel withdrew from the Sinai Peninsula and for the first time destroyed established Jewish homes in the name of peace. This episode explores the price.

Learn about the Camp David Accords, the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, the Coastal Road massacre and Operation Litani against the PLO in Lebanon.
