The article presents a critical assessment of the widespread conceptualization of the June 1967 War between Israel and its neighboring Arab states as a pre-emptive war both in academic and non-academic writing. Tracing the origins of the notion of pre-emptive war to international law, the article identifies three necessary conditions for such a war to be classified as pre-emptive: acute crisis combined with high alert levels; vulnerable offensive weapons; and strategic parity as regards to offensive capabilities. On the basis of a re-interpretation of the evidence produced by previous research, this article argues that the circumstances surrounding the Six Day War did not fulfill some of these necessary conditions. This conclusion also is supported by evidence related to the Israeli decision to launch a first strike.

<p>Abstrak: Palestina pada mulanya adalah bagian dari Daulah Islamiyah di bawah Turki ‘Utsmani. Tetapi dengan dikuasai wilayah ini oleh Inggris (1917), seterusnya dicaplok sebagian besar (48 %) oleh Yahudi, Palestina yang mayoritas penduduknya Muslim menjadi tidak merdeka. Tulisan ini bertujuan mengungkapkan perlawanan Muslim-Palestina terhadap Yahudi-Israel. Untuk maksud tersebut dimanfaatkan pendekatan dan analisis historis dengan library research dalam pengumpulan data. Dari studi ini ditemukan bahwa Zionis Israel menguasai Palestina karena mendapat sokongan dari sekutu utamanya yaitu Amerika Serikat, Inggris dan Prancis. Sementara Palestina berjuang sendiri, karena negara-negara Islam sekitarnya sudah pernah ingin membantu pada tahun 1968, tetapi mengalami kekalahan dalam peperangan enam hari. Akibatnya, Mesir, Suriah, Yordania dan Palestina lepas sebagian wilayahnya. Terakhir, Palestina semakin terpuruk, dan jika disahkan RUU Yahudi yang diajukan oleh Benyamin Netanyahu ke Parlemen Israel, Palestina dan Arab Islam akan semakin terdesak.</p><p><br />Abstract: Palestine and Israel: History, Conflict and the Future. At the beginning Palestine was a part of Daulah Islamiyah under the Turki Usmani, but because this area was dominated by England in 1917, then about 48 percent of it was annexed by Jews, Palestine with the Muslim majority became not independent. This writing aims at exploring the struggle Muslim-Palestine toward Jews-Israel. For this purpose, the use of historical analysis and library research approaches in collecting data were used. The findings from this research are that Zionist Israel dominated Palestine because of being supported by its main allies: America, English and France while Palestine struggle alone because the surrounding Islamic countries had ever wanted to help in 1968 but they were lost in a six-day war. Therefore, Egypt, Syria and Jordan and Palestine released a part of their area. Lately Palestine becomes worse and if the Jews constitution proposed by Benyamin Netayahu to the Israel Parliament, Palestine and Arab Islam will be strongly insisted.</p><p><br />Kata Kunci:Muslim, Palestina, Yahudi, Israel</p>
