The authors, award-winning Israeli journalists and historians, have investigated newly available documents and testimonies from the former Soviet Union, cross-checked them against Israeli and Western sources, and arrived at fresh and startling conclusions. Contrary to previous interpretations, Ginor and Remez's book shows that the Six-Day War was the result of a joint Soviet-Arab gambit to provoke Israel into a preemptive attack. The authors reveal how the Soviets received a secret Israeli message indicating that Israel, despite its official ambiguity, was about to acquire nuclear weapons. Determined to destroy Israel's nuclear program before it could produce an atomic bomb, the Soviets then began preparing for war--well before Moscow accused Israel of offensive intent, the overt trigger of the crisis. Ginor and Remez's startling account details how the Soviet-Arab onslaught was to be unleashed once Israel had been drawn into action and was branded as the aggressor. The Soviets had submarine-based nuclear missiles poised for use against Israel in case it already possessed and tried to use an atomic device, and the USSR prepared and actually began a marine landing on Israel's shores backed by strategic bombers and fighter squadrons. They sent their most advanced, still-secret aircraft, the MiG-25 Foxbat, on provocative sorties over Israel's Dimona nuclear complex to prepare the planned attack on it, and to scare Israel into making the first strike. It was only the unpredicted devastation of Israel's response that narrowly thwarted the Soviet design. 606 $aIsrael-Arab War, 1967$xDiplomatic history 606 $aIsrael-Arab War, 1967$xCauses 607 $aSoviet Union$xForeign relations$zIsrael 607 $aIsrael$xForeign relations$zSoviet Union 607 $aSoviet Union$xForeign relations$zArab countries 607 $aArab countries$xForeign relations$zSoviet Union 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIsrael-Arab War, 1967$xDiplomatic history. 615 0$aIsrael-Arab War, 1967$xCauses. 676 $a956.04/6 700 $aGinor$b Isabella$01054675 701 $aRemez$b Gideon$f1946-$01054676 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451370603321 996 $aFoxbats over Dimona$92487504 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05031nam 2201297z- 450 001 9910557577103321 005 20220111 035 $a(CKB)5400000000043878 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/77082 035 $a(oapen)doab77082 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000043878 100 $a20202201d2021 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aSpatio-Temporal Analysis of Urbanization Using GIS and Remote Sensing in Developing Countries 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2021 215 $a1 online resource (304 p.) 311 08$a3-0365-2541-6 311 08$a3-0365-2540-8 330 $aOver the last two decades, many researchers have focused on developing countries' urbanization patterns and processes. In this context, the scarcity of spatial data has been an obstacle to studying urbanization quantitatively, especially in Asian and African cities. The use of remote sensing data and geographical information systems (GIS) techniques can overcome the above limitations. Data on land use and land cover, land surface temperature, population density, and energy consumption can be extracted based on remote sensing at various spatial and temporal resolutions. GIS techniques can be used to analyze urbanization patterns and predict future patterns. Thus, the link between urbanization and sustainable urban development has increasingly become a principal issue in designing and developing sustainable cities at the local, regional, and global levels. This volume shows the spatiotemporal analysis of urbanization using GIS and remote sensing in developing countries, with a special emphasis on future urban sustainability in Asia and Africa. Capturing the spatial-temporal variation of urbanization patterns will help introduce proper sustainable urban planning in developing countries, especially for Asian and African cities. 606 $aGeography$2bicssc 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aAddis Ababa 610 $aagricultural land 610 $aAHP 610 $abiophysical composition index 610 $aBlantyre city 610 $abuilt-up land 610 $acellular automata 610 $acheck-in data 610 $aChina 610 $acoastal city 610 $aCOVID-19 pandemic 610 $aDMSP-OLS 610 $adriving forces 610 $adynamic motoring 610 $aecological status 610 $aenvironment 610 $aenvironmental quality 610 $aEthiopia 610 $afragmentation 610 $aGIS 610 $agradient analysis 610 $aGWR 610 $ahabitat quality 610 $aimpervious surface area 610 $aIndia 610 $aindustrial rural area 610 $aKandy city 610 $aland cover 610 $aland surface temperature 610 $aland use and cover 610 $alandscape ecology 610 $alandscape pattern 610 $alife quality index (LQI) 610 $aLST 610 $aLUCC 610 $aLULC change 610 $aMCDM 610 $aMODIS 610 $an/a 610 $anon-agricultural conversion of rural land 610 $aNuwara Eliya 610 $aPearl River Delta 610 $aPingtan Island 610 $aPM10 concentration 610 $apoint of interest 610 $aregression analysis 610 $aremote sensing 610 $aRSEI 610 $arural landscape 610 $asocial media platform 610 $asouthern Jiangsu 610 $aspatial differences 610 $aspatial layout 610 $aspatial pattern 610 $aspatial patterns 610 $aspatiotemporal analysis 610 $aSri Lanka 610 $asub-Saharan region 610 $asurface urban heat island 610 $asystematic transition 610 $atransition matrix 610 $atransportation infrastructure 610 $aurban agglomeration 610 $aurban development zones 610 $aurban green space 610 $aurban heat island 610 $aurban land expansion 610 $aurban planning 610 $aurban public space 610 $aurban sustainability 610 $aurban-rural gradient 610 $aurbanization 610 $aXiamen 610 $aYangtze River Delta Urban Agglomeration 615 7$aGeography 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aMurayama$b Yuji$4edt$01303463 702 $aSimwanda$b Matamyo$4edt 702 $aRanagalage$b Manjula$4edt 702 $aMurayama$b Yuji$4oth 702 $aSimwanda$b Matamyo$4oth 702 $aRanagalage$b Manjula$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557577103321 996 $aSpatio-Temporal Analysis of Urbanization Using GIS and Remote Sensing in Developing Countries$93027076 997 $aUNINA
