===Theory of Nazarism===
Nasser was a centralized but charismatic leader with distinctive rhetorical abilities. His strong personality made him stand out not only in his country but also in the entire Arab world, and he became a symbol of the struggle against Israel. His ideology, dubbed "Nazarism", advocated the establishment of a Muslim empire that would dominate the Middle East. His speeches stirred millions of people in Arab countries and he became a very popular leader.<ref name=shalem-nasser>

Theory of Nazarism

Nasser and Israel
Nasser has repeatedly stated his opposition to Israel and his intention to "liberate Palestine." In 1956, Israel defeated Egypt in "Operation Kadesh." A year later, Nasser declared that Egypt was ready to destroy Israel, and deployed military forces to the Sinai Peninsula. These actions, among other things, led to another war in 1967, in which Egypt also suffered a humiliating defeat. Nasser did not say desperate, and for the rest of his life he won the "war of attrition" designed to break the IDF into a long and grueling campaign.
On September 28, 1970, at the age of only 52, Nasser died of a heart attack. His deputy, Anwar Sadat, wrote: "Those who knew Nasser will understand that it was not on September 28, 1970 that the man died, but on June 5, 1967, exactly one hour after the war broke out."</blockquote></ref>
