The above affair, that is the demonstration of the
Arab Nationalists against the Baghdad Pact and the expulsion
of their activists from the American University brought the
ANM closer to the young officers of Egypt. On the one hand,
Egypt was now hardening its position on the Western-initiated
defensive pacts and as such was seeking the alliance of all
revolutionary forces in its forthcoming battle against the
Baghdad Pact. On the other hand, the admittance of the
| Arab Nationalists students, who were expelled from the
American University of Beirut, in the Egyptian universities
by order of Premier Nasser himself was greatly appreciated
by the ANM and its members.”
A number of the Arab Nationalists who were admitted
to Cairo University ranked high in the ANM's hierarchy.
As such, they were well-prepared to perform two important
tasks. First, they established a channel of communication
between the ANM and the Egyptian departments responsible for
Arab affairs. In time, these students had a better under-
standing of the workings of the Egyptian machinery which
they conveyed to their leadership. Second, they opened new
horizons for the ANM by recruiting a number of Arab students
from more than one Arab state. In the later 'fifties, the
ANM dispatched these students to build its organizations in
this and the information which appear in the following
paragraph is mainly based on the author's personal interviews
with two leading members who played an important role in the
activities of the ANM during the period under discussion,
July 17, 1967.
