Actually, it's called "Will knows history".
- October 29, 1956: Israel attacks Egypt, who was disputing the ownership of the Suez Canal
- June 5, 1967: Israel preemptively attacks Egypt, who had amazzed tanks on the boarder
- October 6, 1973: Israel was given the canal by the UN, and built up large military installations and fortifications, from which war could easily be waged or defended. In addition to this, Israel had solidified it's policy of preemptive attack. Knowing that an attack from Israel was eminent, the Egyptians and Syrians moved in. Israel took the opportunity to breach he UN imposed cease fire and drove farther South.
- June 6, 1982: Israel Defense forces invade Southern Lebanon.
- July 12, 2006: Israel invades Lebanon, again.
Sorry, I forgot the Israelis weren't officially in the coalition in 1992.
