The actual war, BTW, was pretty spectacular, how could the Arab side punt it? But they did.
A big part of the Israeli win was catching Syrian AF on the ground, and surprisingly enough (IANMTU) (really, IANMTU !!) (I realize it sounds nuts, but I absolutely am not making this up!!) the Israeli military command INSISTED on keeping their troops hydrated. With water. Forced every solider to drink at least 4 liters (if not more) of water every day.
It worked. Desert heat wilted Egyptian ground forces faster than napalm.

Really.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
