Background information: this is from a statement made by an israeli foreign minister to the un security council on june 6, 1967 (the second day of the six-day war).
now there could be no doubt about what was intended for us. with my very ears i heard president nasser's speech on 26 may. he said:
"we intend to open a general assault against israel. this will be total war. our basic aim will be to destroy israel."
on 2 june, the egyptian commander in sinai, general mortagi, published his order of the day, calling on his troops to wage a war of destruction against israel. here, then, was a systematic, overt, proclaimed design at politicide, the murder of a state. the policy, the arms, the men had all been brought together, and the state thus threatened with collective assault was itself the last sanctuary of a people which had seen six million of its sons exterminated by a more powerful dictator two decades before.
