The 1979 Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty: A Hidden History

11 min•4 november 2026

Om avsnittet

While the 1948 and 1967 wars dominate the narrative, the 1979 peace treaty between Egypt and Israel remains one of the most consequential yet under-discussed moments in Middle Eastern history. This episode explores the secret diplomacy that led to the Camp David Accords, focusing on the personal relationship between Anwar Sadat and Menachem Begin. We examine how Jimmy Carter’s mediation bridged deep ideological divides, the internal political backlash Sadat faced from Arab peers and his own citizens, and the immediate aftermath of returning the Sinai Peninsula. Through the lens of these three leaders, we uncover the fragile human connections that made peace possible despite decades of entrenched hostility.
