Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser: Speech at UAR Advanced Air Headquarters

Gamal Abdel Nasser, the president of Egypt during the six-day war, issued a speech (1967), in which he claims that Egypt and the Islamic Alliance should fight an aggressive war against Israel. Nasser uses several techniques to support his point, including invoking pity (i.e. that no one supports the Arabs), using rhetorical questions, pathos, and other common rhetorical techniques. The purpose of his speech is to garner support from Arabs in the Islamic alliance in order to achiever his call to arms against Israel. The Egyptian President aims for this speech to be read by every Arab that is touched by the Islamic alliance.

Israeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban: Speech at the Special Assembly of the United Nations

Abba Eban, the Israeli prime minister during the period of the six-day war, formulated a speech (1967) in which he defends Israel's right to exist and its right to defend itself from aggressive Arab attack. The support for this point is derived from anti-Israel quotes from leaders of the Arab side and also a brief history of Israel's difficult past (which may have been overly dramatized). Eban's purpose in this speech is to spread the idea that Israel has a right to self-defense from an aggressive act of violence that stems from the Islamic Alliance. Eban establishes a formal relationship with his intended audience of the western world.
