Foreword by Henry King Stanford. Leon Gouré (November 1, 1922 - March 16, 2007) was a Soviet Union-born American political scientist and analyst. His studies for the RAND Corporation in the 1960s and 1970s helped influence civil defense preparedness in the Soviet Union and on the morale of the Viet Cong in Vietnam. As a RAND Corporation analyst, Gouré began to develop his ideas on civil defense in the Soviet Union. In 1961, he wrote a report suggesting that the Soviet Union had massively increased their civil defense preparations to protect large numbers of people in the event of a nuclear war. His reports on the subject contributed to the expansion of civil defense measures in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s. Malcolm Gladwell wrote in 2013 that Gouré was "brilliant, charismatic, incredibly charming and absolutely ruthless". Gouré joined the University of Miami in 1969 as director of Soviet studies at the University of Miami's Center for Advanced International Studies. In 1980, he joined Science Applications International Corp., a consulting firm, where he remained until his retirement in 2004. Foy David Kohler (February 15, 1908 - December 23, 1990) was an American diplomat who was the United States Ambassador to the Soviet Union during the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Yom Kippur War, also known as the Ramadan War, the October War, the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, or the Fourth Arab-Israeli War, was an armed conflict fought from 6 to 25 October 1973 between Israel and a coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria. The majority of combat between the two sides took place in the Sinai Peninsula and the Golan Heightsâ"both of which were occupied by Israel in 1967â"with some fighting in African Egypt and northern Israel. Egypt's initial objective in the war was to seize a foothold on the eastern bank of the Suez Canal and subsequently leverage these gains to negotiate the return of the rest of the Israeli-occupied Sinai Peninsula. The war began on 6 October 1973, when the Arab coalition jointly launched a surprise attack against Israel on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur, which had occurred during the 10th of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan in that year; Egyptian and Syrian forces crossed their corresponding ceasefire lines with Israel and invaded the Sinai Peninsula and the Golan Heights, respectively. Following the outbreak of hostilities, both the United States and the Soviet Union initiated massive resupply efforts to their respective allies during the war, which led to a near-confrontation between the two nuclear-armed superpowers. The Yom Kippur War had far-reaching implications; the Arab world had experienced humiliation in the lopsided rout of the Egyptian-Syrian-Jordanian alliance in 1967, but felt psychologically vindicated by early successes in the 1973 conflict. The Israelis recognized that, despite impressive operational and tactical achievements on the battlefield, there was no guarantee that they would always dominate the Arab states militarily, as they had done consistently throughout the First, Second and Third Arab-Israeli Wars; these changes paved the way for the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. The 1978 Camp David Accords that followed the war saw Israel return the entire Sinai Peninsula to Egypt and the subsequent 1979 Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty, which marked the first instance of an Arab country recognizing Israel as a legitimate state. Following the achievement of peace with Israel, Egypt continued its drift away from the Soviet Union and eventually left the Soviet sphere of influence entirely.
