>>The war was stopped after Israel stopped losing and started winning.

Without emergency American aid delivered at the front, Israel would never have started winning. In any case, the argument was not about who won at the end but that the Egyptians were a deadly enemy not too long ago, just as the Palestinians are now. And that they had killed a lot more Israelis than Palestinians ever did (more than 2,500 Israelis died in the twenty or so days of the '73 war,) and came pretty close to destroying the state of Israel.

>>Arafat broke every part of his deal.

Both sides broke the deal: Israel continued expanding the settlements from day one, in spite of strenuous American objections. How would you feel if your neighbor took over half your house and after agreeing in court to settle the matter and eventually withdraw he instead started kicking you out of more rooms?
