From the Order of the Day Issued by General Abdul Muhsin Murtagi, Commander of the Egyptian Eastern Front:

“The world now awaits you. You are about to enter the holiest of battles for your Arab homeland against the Israeli aggression and imperialism.  The world awaits your holy struggle for the retrieval of the plundered right.  You will win back this right by the force of justice, by the force of arms and by the force of faith.”
