Egypt

President Nasser of Egypt:

“The fight in which we are now engaged is against imperialism and its supporters and against imperialist methods.  It is a fight against Israel, the tool of imperialism created in the heart of the Arab world to obliterate our nationalism.  But we will all defend our freedom and Arabism and will struggle to see the Arab Motherland extend from the Atlantic Ocean to the Persian Gulf (e.g. Caliphate).”
