How the Egyptian Generals Built up Morale by Offering Jewish Girls to Soldiers 1967 War

The 1967 war is important for a student of military history. It shows how a morale is built up and then shattered. In 1967 Gamal Nasser, the Egyptian President had armed his troops with the latest weaponry from Russia and his Air Force with the latest Soviet MIGs. He was sure that in case he provoked a war with Israel, his army would annihilate the Israeli state. He was bent on the destruction of Israel.

The morale of the Egyptian soldiers was built up with a promise of Jew girls as consorts and concubines. in fact, many senior officers privately thought of getting Jew virgin girls for them. This did build up the morale, yet in actual combat, the Egyptian forces just ran away. Particularly after a 24-hour assault that destroyed 90% of the EAF on the ground. As quickly as the morale was built up, even more quickly it evaporated and Egyptian soldiers surrendered in vast numbers.

Gamal Nasser, realizing he was routed and fearing the anger of the masses and possible capture by Israel went into hiding. He never recovered from this defeat and died a short time later from a heart attack
