  I’m a Nigerian living in Egypt around Gamal Abdel Nasser Axis in New Cairo. He’s one of the African leaders that fascinate me. I wonder why people like him are not thought about in African Schools. He’s one of the Modern African leaders that fought for African freedom. May his soul continue to rest in peace.

  He died before I was born but the fascination with him hasn&apos;t stopped since my history teacher introduced him to us in class 4.

  This is the best piece i&apos;&apos;ve seen about such an enormous figure, whose legacy is not very well understood. The British Prime Minister, &nbsp;Anthony Eden was described as &quot;Rolling on the floor and biting the carpet&quot; whenever Nasser&apos;s name was mentioned out of spite by an associate of Eden, he regarded him as the destroyer of the British Empire.<br><br>His non-aligned movement which he was one of the founders mentioned in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSsSS0d9uUM&amp;t=1312">21:52</a> was actually the origin of the term &quot;Third World&quot;, it was about political allegiance and opposition to colonialism. <br><br>Nasser was a very popular figure who was personally liked by Nikita Khrushchev, his own personality and personal magnetism were the primary reason why the Soviets backed Egypt so much, despite Nasser&apos;s crackdown on communist parties in Egypt. The assassination attempt mentioned in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSsSS0d9uUM&amp;t=1208">20:08</a> was what really put him in the spotlight, as it was being publicly broadcasted, when he was shot he said in loudspeakers &quot;Do not falter, every one &nbsp;of stand your ground, All you men, stand your ground stand your ground, you freeborn all of you stay your ground, my life is a sacrifice for you, my blood is a sacrifice for you. This is Gamal Abd El-Nasser speaking to you, by the aid of God, after the traitors &nbsp;attempted to attack him, and his life which is a tribute for you, my blood is a tribute for you, O men, O freeborn, Gamal Abd El-Nasser is owned by you, O men, O people, here is Gamal Abd el-Nasser amongst you, I am not a coward&quot;<br><br><br>This was a giant rally in the manshiya incident, the very one mentioned earlier where he first protested, and had people panicked there would have been a stampede with hundreds dying as a result. He was clearly shook while speaking as he was actually shot and was speaking while bleeding, hence the repetition of men several times in the beginning, which was partially omitted in this translation , it was so unreal that people thought it was staged, however, it weren&apos;t, it was actually the latest in a series of assassinations that took place that very same year. The MB were parties to the 1952 revolution and they felt betrayed, this was their retribution. He not only redtributed the wealth, he also enacted free education and allowed an opportunity for social mobility like never before with free higher education. <br><br>It should be noted that at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSsSS0d9uUM&amp;t=2400">40:00</a> os not to be trusted by those collaborated with the British and others to overthrow him decades earlier. Furthermore, Chemical weapons in Yemen were sanction by AbdalHakim Amer who was in effect the ruler of the military of the government. &nbsp;The &quot;voice of the Arabs&quot; radio broadcast was spread across the whole of the Arab world, which made the gulfie monarcihies who were put in place by the British conspire against him, it was also the reason why France joined the tripartite aggression which led to the Suez crisis, as the broadcast was fueling the popular sentiment for the overthrowing of French colonization, he also provided material support for the rebels in their struggle for indepenedence. In <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSsSS0d9uUM&amp;t=2340">39:00</a> about 1967, before the straits were closed Abd El-Hakim Amir when asked about the readiness of Egyptian troops he said &quot;Everything is ready boss, we can take care of anything&quot;, the division between Amer and Nasser at that point was so widespread that he was the titular head of the military and their allegiance were to him more so than Nasser by account of an officer involved from that period. &nbsp;It was also primarily the syrian constant calls for Egyptians to do something saying they were about to be attacked. His funeral was arguably the biggest in history, those left, even adversaries described themselves as feeling orphaned after his loss.
