Explanation:

• The first option is incorrect: Ronald Reagan was not US President during the 1973 Yom Kippur War, and Golda Meir was not re-elected after the war.
• The third option is incorrect: There was no mass migration of Egyptians to Israel during/after this war, and the conflict was already ongoing.
• The fourth option is incorrect: Israel retained control of the Sinai Peninsula after the war, returning it later via the Camp David Accords.
• The second option is correct: The surprise attack and heavy Israeli casualties in the Yom Kippur War led to public anger and a loss of support for Golda Meir, who resigned shortly after the war.

B. The people turned against Prime Minister Golda Meir.
