The film is called “Six Days in June: The War That Redefined the Middle East.”

This must be typed, double-spaced, 12 point font, 1 inch margins and NO NAMES MISPELLED. You can find all the spellings on-line somewhere I’m sure, if not in the Short History book. This should be 3-4 pages or so. The Reader (185-188) contains a summary of the War if there are issues that confuse you.

The CD is in the library. If you want to watch it on youtube.com, go there and type in Six Days in June and the first choice says Doron Pascal, length of video 1:53:51.

READ THE QUESTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU START THE MOVIE.

WARNING: IF YOU WRITE THAT GAMEL ABDEL NASSAR OR LEVI ESHKOL DIED OF A BROKEN HEART I’LL TAKE 25 POINTS OFF YOUR PAPER. PLEASE DO NOT WRITE THAT NONSENSE.
