This Thursday will mark the 57th anniversary of a sad hour of Egyptian history in the 20th century. On July 23, 1952 people of Egypt woke up to a message being aired over Egyptian airwaves stating that a military group made up of free officers took over the country. The announcer was no other than a person who would win a Nobel Peace Prize for a peace treaty he made with Israel in 1978 -- Anwar El Sadat.Mr. Sadat would also become the third out of four presidents Egyptian would have in the 20th century. He was also a member of this military group who's leader was General Mohammed Naugib. This broadcast started at 7:30 am stating that there was a revolution currently in action aimed to depose a king who was corrupted and to improve Egypt for all Egyptians.The leader of the younger officers was Gamal Abdel Nasser who was also part of the infamous Muslim Brotherhood, which was also a partner of the Nazis and had helped the Nazis escape the Allies' jurisdiction to eventually settle in Egypt and in South America . He had also formed a coalition with Naugib which would eventually avoid any problems with other officers who did not care for his ideas.The major declared goal of this "revolution" was to improve the military's income and protest against the king. Sadat, who was never one for bloodshed or conflicts would disappear into a movie theater, however, to make sure that he was not a part of that group (in case of the coup was to be unsuccessful). He had purposely started a fight with another man so that there would be a police report made on him to assure an alibi.Most of the world knows all about Nasser and his ideas. After a year of the King's dethronement, Nasser eventually deposes General Naugib and became the second "President" of Egypt .
How was this successful?There are many reasons. One , Egypt was going through a critical period of history. There was a lot of instability, mischief and corruption throughout the government. Two , Egypt was losing all battles it had started with the newly created Jewish State of Israel which became a black eye to the ego of Egypt and of the population. And third, the Egyptian army was defected and ineffective to the Jewish militia who even though in rags and in second-hand military equipment, knew similar to that of a chess game what would be the best moves.Gamal Abdel Nasser was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood and had been taught by its religious leader, the former close friend of Adolph Hitler, Haji al Husseini the vast hatred of Jews, Christians, Zoroastrians, and Atheists. In the beginning of 1956, the European Cold War between the USSR and the United States , Britain and Europe started. The US knowing the President of Egypt and his group's background tried to entice him to stand with them against the USSR and other Soviet Bloc countries to block any communistic infiltration in the Middle East and especially in using the Suez Canal . The US backed Egypt to become a part of the International Bank and to facilitate international investment in the country as well as to implement a huge irrigation project which was to be given to the countries along the Nile River .It is no secret that President Nasser ever cared at all about Egypt or its economy. There was only one goal - to annihilate Israel once and for all - murdering the Jews and infidels. Nasser attempted to use the bank to buy enormous quantities of military arms and supplies from the US . However, the US , had to refuse Nasser ’s demand. Nasser having been refused went to China , one of US’s enemy at the time. With the help of China , Egypt was able to start to obtain new military equipment, but in this process the International Bank withdrew the financial opportunity to build a dam that in the long run would have benefited nearly ten African countries.
On the advice of China , Nasser travels to Czechoslovakia (then a Soviet Bloc country) where he signs an army contract to buy USSR made arsenal. He felt sure that his plans were taking place and there was no stopping him and with Allah's blessing - his goal of destroying all Jews and infidels was at hand. He had decided to nationalize the Suez Canal at this time (1956) without honoring any earlier international agreement. He had established with a young relation of Haji al Husseini by the name of Yassir Arafat many guerilla (terrorist) cells to attack any English properties in Egypt as well as inside Israel . These cells would go and attack villages in Israel and in English facilities in Egypt .
Israel started defending herself, attacking the cells. The Israeli military started to follow the attackers going into Egyptian territory. In October 1956, Israel entered the Sinai which would become two great battles. The battles were Al Contellah and Ras Al Mounkab. The world started learning a new Arabic word. The guerrillas were called the Fedayeen. The United Kingdom requested that Egypt respect the independence agreement and protect the international vessels from attack in the Suez Canal , as well as the air space, railroads and roads. Nasser decided to annul all agreements and declared all English military bases in Egypt will now be Egyptian.
This meant that now the UK would have to attack Egypt in order to protect their property and personnel. At this same time, France had captured a ship from Romania which was carrying Soviet arsenal and Egyptian secret service agents. This ship proved to the French government that Egypt was helping to support Algerians who were fighting the French. France had decided to attack Egypt and destroy all its weapon depots.The USSR saw a great opportunity to defended Egypt by giving an ultimatum to the UK , France and Israel to cease or else. As we all know -- it ended as a stalemate.However, since this time, 1956 to today in 2009 the government of Egypt has honored this day to celebrate a victory against three countries. Even though it was a true stalemate, to the "Arab" mind and that of any terrorist, it was a victory. The truth in Arab world is their own made-up truth, as we have seen with all Arab leaders’ speeches that at any given time the facts are turned around to complement their own benefit.In conclusion, one will notice that
The Egyptian revolution was not more than a military coup performed by a group of young militaries to improve their income.
The true goal of the revolution was not to improve Egyptian life but to fight the newly created Jewish State of Israel and the infidel population in and out of Egypt .
The Fadayeen groups (terrorist cells) were initiated by Nasser .
The attacks from Israel , the UK and France were a chain reaction generated due to the actions of the Egyptian government.
In reading the true accounts, there have been many excursions made by Nasser against Israel . The greatest and most famous of them all happened in 1967, otherwise known as the Six Day War.

Egypt 57 Years Later (2)
The celebration of a false victory invented by Nasser after the stalemate of 1956’s war is a clear indication and key to understand the typical Arab’s mindset. One of the tenets of Islam is to lie to others. Over time, the liar will even accept the lie to be true.
When the Union of Socialist Soviet Republic (USSR) had announced as an ultimatum to France , United Kingdom (UK) and Israel to cease fire, President Dwight D. Eisenhower then the President of the United States (US) had requested to those fighting Egypt to a ceasefire. This was done and surprisingly, Israel found herself possessing more land than before due to the fighting. This was not even thought of or in any plan. Israel simply was defending herself against the aggressor of Egypt . Eventually a quiet agreement was established stating that Israel can have Eliat port and be allowed the right to use the Suez Canal as long as Egypt can pretend it had won.
Nasser had a vision to become the new "Khalifa" however, he needed to start his own plan of having a Khalifa-like state -- so it would become a true Islamic nation. This would be very complex especially when there were many foreign investors residing and many Egyptians who were of society were Jewish.
Nasser had implemented something that was similar to Nazi Europe -- he would make Egypt Yahudi-free. No Jews would be permitted to live in Egypt as a regular citizen. Hence in the late 1950s, early 1960s Nasser would force the Jews to leave the country and in a short-time without any help and no time to plan and pack. Then all foreigners (English, Italians, Greeks, etc.) would be forced to leave.
Nasser then decided it's time to make a huge Arab republic -- or a region filled with smaller Arab republics but with Egypt as being the main country. Egypt would be known as the United Arab Republic (UAR) and its first partner was to be Syria . A major reason was also because Syria borders along Israel . Nasser communicated with the Syrian leader (Shokri Al-Quwatli) about having an Arab region all united in one goal -- to destroy the infidels.
Nasser would be spending the monies of Egypt in purchasing military supplies from the Soviet bloc countries and deliver them to the Arab guerrillas (terrorists).
However, the relationship between Egypt and Syria would deteriorate at a fast rate. In 1960, Nasser nationalizes the major Egyptian private companies and took away all privately family owned farms so that it would be under the government's ownership.
No one in the west believed of the worse in regards to Nasser . They believed that Nasser was just trying to be a socialist. No one questioned the government's acquisition of the privately owned companies and farms. Nor did anyone question the abuses that were happening to the owners if they should be Coptic, Jewish, European, etc. He took away all land that belonged to the Churches and Synagogues but would not do a thing to Islamic properties owned by Al Azhar . The goal was to wreck any non-Muslim economic power.
Another part was to change the school system that was following a more British-like plan to be more like a Madrassa (Islamic School). The first to be changed was the University of Al Azhar was a religious university. Under Nasser , this institution would be enlarged to include medicine and engineering, ecc. To this day, it stays as such. No non-Muslim can attend this school.
A child's would be hardly any learning of the ancient Egyptians or the true history of the country. All children will have to learn only Islamic history and the Koran as a daily study.
Since the end of 1956 war, Nasser was building an army equipped with the latest military technology from the USSR . This was also the beginning of the abuse of Copts which would force many to immigrate out of their homeland with the blessing of the "free officers" and Nasser.
Less than a decade later in the spring of 1967, Nasser announced that under no circumstance can any ship that flies Israel ’s flag be permitted to go through the Suez Canal . By this one announcement, Nasser had broken the ceasefire agreement that was signed at the end of 1956 war. Israel did not react right away. At this time, Syria had started to increase the aid to the Arab guerrillas to intensify their attacks against Israel through the Golan Heights . These would be known as the "liberation attacks" - to liberate non-Israelis from the Israelis. These attacks would devastate the civilian population in the north of Israel . Israel considered these attacks an act of war especially following Nasser announcement closing the Suez Canal to Israel . Nasser felt his dream of destroying Israel was to be a reality. At this time, Nasser requested to Syria to support them and to demand the United Nations (UN) to withdraw all of their "peacekeepers" from all borders of Israel , Egypt and Syria .
Soon, nearly all the Arab nations surrounding Israel would join together to make Nasser 's dream a reality! Millions upon millions of Arab militia are against less than two million Israelis. The surrounded Arabic countries consisted of Lebanon to the north, Jordan and Iraq from the east, Saudi Arabia to the south were standing next Israeli border ready to attack.
At the beginning of June 1967 President Nasser had visited an Egyptian army unit stationed at the border and gave a press conference in which he stated that Israel was too weak to defend herself after the last war of 1956. However, they were incorrect. At 9 o'clock in the morning of Monday, June 5, 1967, the sirens of Cairo starting blasting. War bulletins started to be airing from public radio stations.The bulletins stated that the liberation of " Palestine " will be ongoing. Israel 's plan would be thumped by the invincible Egyptian defense system. In listening to these broadcasts, one could picture the mighty Egyptian army penetrating the Jewish state like a knife in butter.
On Friday, the 9th of June the radio announced that President Nasser would make an important announcement. Had it been the truth, Nasser would be admitting defeat but it was not to be. All monies that were to go for the better of Egypt 's economy was spent in buying military weaponry that would be destroyed in less than five hours. In six days, the mighty Arab militia was destroyed. Defeat was imminent. But not to the Arab mind. Nasser refused to admit defeat.
The economic results were devastated; the Suez Canal 's shipping lanes were shut down. But what were worse the Egyptian people had begun to lose faith in their leader and government plus a large number of young men had lost their lives. Many families were grieving over their losses.
