ITN Exclusive: Interview with President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt (1957) 

whether you agreed with his leadership or not, his confidence, fluency and charisma will forever be unmatched for an Egyptian president

ألف رحمة ونور عليك يا ناصر

I hope one day Egypt will have a patriotic leader again.

A charismatic leader

We'll never forgot you comrade Nasser!

He was a great leader.

Charisma leader ya nasser

رغم محولات لتشويه صورته لكن جمال عبدالناصر زعيم حقيقي

الله يرحمه

Impressive English speaking at that time

His national interest led decision to nationalise Canal was correct. But the mights, France Britain they just can't digest the development of peripheries.

The leader who only knows how to talk but his actions destroyed his country

Truly was the best Egyptian and Arab leader.

Nasser was a good leader. Robin Day an excellent interviewer. The qualities of each are devoid in modern day leaders and journalists.

His coffin must've drowned with all his tears crying about the humiliation el-Sisi brought upon Egypt.

What a blessed father of the Arab nations he is. Gosh if he saw it today…

He told the truth 👊🏾

♥️♥️ Nasser

I didn't catch the date of this video, but it could have been made today Friday 21 June 2024. The Palestinian issue with Israel continues, when will it end. I have been searching for a quote by Nassar, where he said, I'm paraphrasing, there will never be peace in the Middle East. He goes on to say to Israel, you jews went away Black but you return white. This is an indictment against Israel that they have yet to answer. Can anyone shed more light on these quotes, please inform us.

So cool seeing him speak English!

Oh he knew English very nice lemme hear

Fascinating interview which demolishes current Israeli lies that Palestinians as a people were created by Yasser Arafat in the 1960's.

A real hero.

The "legendary" Nasser sounds so stupid to me. I am not surprised that he brought only humiliating defeats to Egypt in the wars with Israel

ماذا كانت الحراسة على منزل الرئيس جمال عبد الناصر ، ٢ فرد شرطة ٣ فرد شرطة عسكرية بالسلاح الشخصي ، بس ؟ أيوة بس

Waw what a relaxing garden

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's crackdown on communist parties in Egypt. The assassination attempt mentioned was what really put him in the spotlight, as it was being publicly broadcasted, when he was shot he said in loudspeakers "Do not falter, every one 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 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" 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'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. The Canal was the birthplace of the empire, and its gravestone. Under Gamal Abd El-Nasser, Egypt astonishingly had exactly a debt of $0.00 He was the main force behind decolonisation in the region, it's why the French intruded in the tripartite aggression, Algerian independence was only supported by Egypt. Yemen, Iran as well. The Monarchies were put in place by the British. Nasser not only had to deal with these external foreign actors, he also had to deal with the monarchies they put in place, inaddition to the internal issues with split allegiance in the military which he headed, most had allegiance to Abdal Hakim Amir (who was responsible for the 1967 disaster), The "voice of the Arabs" 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. About 1967, before the straits were closed Abd El-Hakim Amir when asked about the readiness of Egyptian troops he said "Everything is ready boss, we can take care of anything", 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. 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. Economic mismanagement started after the free market policies which Sadat started after taking over in 1970, After the 1973 October war (which was supposed to have taken place 2-3 years prior thanks to Gamal's rearmament), Sadat enacted a series of policies, the "Infitah" in 1974, to bring back the oligarchy which Gamal had stripped from wealth in his 'Land reform in Egypt' policies. Except this time it was the military getting rich, instead of other oligarchs. As early as 1977, the disastrous effect of these policies were felt by the public. Before then Egypt had industry, manufacturing (including Cars); after it became dependent on tourism and foreign cash infusions. Even the agricultural sector was decimated thanks to advisors from those fought in the 1973 War recommending that Cash crops instead of staples ought be grown because there is more money that way, thereby ending Egypt's food security as well. Nasser only gained full control post 1967 after Amir and his cadre lost support of the military itself and during which he not only commenced rearmament, he started a war of attrition, all with a debt of $0.00

Egypt's Soekarno 🥲

❤❤❤Nasser

Returning Sinai to Egypt, Israel's big mistake!

Can't have been after News at Ten, as NaT was another decade away.

'Egypt and Britain were still technically at war over the Suez Crisis at the time'....No. The only countries in that affair that were technically at war with each other, both during and after the conflict, were Egypt and Israel. Britain has not technically been at war with anyone since 1945.

He could've been the Atatürk of the Arabs.

This man was more educated and smarter than sadat and his retinue. His charismatic had influenced every body has listened to him. He has left an empty vast positioned place,but the venom of vicious malice, mean antipathy, stew and rancorous feelings have finished his life on the earth. That's the world today. Regretfully. Envy is the main cause of hatred and killing and we see that nowadays.

RIP Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970)

The true people if God need not to olay dress up or convince people that they are but that they will harbor all knowledge and the law of God not man .... Again,not the law of if man (Gentiles)

Now there scared

Nasser established revolutionary anti colonial and anti-imperialist nationalism in the Arab world and was an important leader of a movement for independence movement if Africa and Asia.

And then egypt got absolutely clobbered in 1967 LOL

The best president Egypt had

Yes he made serious mistakes but still superior to the traitors after him with the exception of morsi

When come such another

Local communism banned But soviet friendly Bizarre right hahaaa

Is this the interview where he says, "you (the Jews) will never be able to live here in peace, because you left here black but came back white. We cannot except you!" If not, can anyone link me to it?

Gentiles follow the law of man while, the people of God follow the laws of God (Oil and water)

The greatest Arab and Pan Africanist who has ever lived!

Unnecessary wars, plenty of rhetoric, awful economy… but what charisma!

Nasser ecoal maser😊

Great man.

Now el sisi rule, EGP decrease to much worse😂

Well,

He was an intelligent man with so much charisma. But his leadership was too flawed, and it showed after the result of the 6 day war.

Allah 3alik bl 3araby aw blEngish bn7bak y nasser shraftna wrfa3t rasna erf3 ra2sak enta masry 7abib El mlayen nasser Allah yr7amk

Smart, charming and genocidal fellow.

After winning #######&&&&&& 😂😂

Nasser I love him so much ❤❤❤❤

mans was so two faced you could spin his head 100 times and come up with a different nasser each time.

without lies...islam dies

Nasser destroyed Egypt economically, militarily, socially he lost every battle he went through, He jailed all his opponents and tortured them, he is the worst dictator ever to preside over Egypt.

Hes a murderer he got rid of the Greeks of Egypt

I must admit I'm shocked by this interview,,all my life I heard about nasser,,,so I figured I was going to see a madman.....I must admit,he's soft spoken,and from what I can see articulate,,,it's so sad,,,he's even likable,,,it is to sad that Egypt and Israel could not have worked things out,before sadat....

Nasser Voice Storang

🕋 *_What-A-DISGRACE!!_* 🕋 It will *_NEVER_* be possible to come to a Truthful Understanding much less a Truthful Resolution for the Jewish vs Muslim conflict because it is a Religious/Family conflict that goes all the way back to 1,900 BC, when Father Abraham kicked Ismael out (Genesis 21:9-14) for threatening Isaac. Hell, even Secular people can not Resolve their issues Peacefully. But, one thing that sticks out to me is the *_DISGRACEFUL_* fact that the Arab/Turkish Muslims illegally invaded and occupied that land from 638 AD to 1917 AD, knowing full well it was the Ancestral Homeland of the Jews (their spiritual cousins) and to this very day refuses to let the Jews live in Peace in their 4,000 year old Ancestral Homeland.

A learned man 🇮🇱🇪🇬
