Who is Mordechai Gazit?

Mordechai Gazit was an advisor to Israeli prime minister Golda Meir. He was also Israeli ambassador to France and director-general of the Israeli foreign ministry.

Gazit was a member of the Haganah and fought in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. He received his master's degree in archaeology from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Gazit has rejected the argument that Israel missed an opportunity to make peace with Egypt from 1970-1973 after Anwar Sadat became Egypt's president. He has also rejected the claim that Jordan's King Hussein warned Meir about the impending Arab attack on Israel in 1973.
