Fair points, fair edits of the page.

After 1951, the chapter pretty much says, \\\"America got its s*** together and accepted a stalemate only due to political limitations,\\\" then wraps up and moves on to a huge section on the Arab-Israeli wars. Therefore, I\\\'d be greatly interested in any further details you can chip in about the post-maneuver fighting.
