Posted: Sun Jun 23, 2024 10:32 pm
Date: October 10, 1978
Location: Grand Mosque, Capital of the Arabic Caliphate
The Grand Mosque is filled to capacity. The air is charged with anticipation as thousands of citizens, soldiers, and clerics gather to hear their leader, Caliph Muhammad Al-Rashid. The speech is broadcast live across the Caliphate and allied nations, reaching millions of listeners. The Caliph stands at the podium, surrounded by his advisors and high-ranking military officials.
"In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
My beloved brothers and sisters, citizens of the Caliphate, and faithful followers of Islam, today we stand at the crossroads of destiny. For too long, the lands of our ancestors have been defiled by the presence of those who seek to undermine the glory of our faith and our people. The time has come for us to reclaim what is rightfully ours and to purge the land of the corrupt influences that seek to poison our hearts and minds.
For centuries, we have endured the injustices inflicted upon us by the West and their puppet regimes. The so-called state of Aegyptus, founded by a rebellious minority, stands as a blight upon our sacred lands. It is a nation that dares to defy the will of Allah and impose its Western, infidel values upon our people. It is a state that seeks to divide us, to weaken us, and to destroy the unity that binds us as one Ummah.
We have shown patience, hoping for a peaceful resolution, but our patience has been met with contempt and aggression. The rulers of Aegyptus, in their arrogance, have continued to oppress our Muslim brothers and sisters, denying them their rightful place in society. They have aligned themselves with the enemies of Islam, allowing Western forces to establish a foothold in our lands. This cannot, and will not, be tolerated any longer.
Today, we declare a holy struggle, a Jihad, to liberate Aegyptus from the tyranny of its illegitimate rulers. We will march with the strength of a united people, supported by our allies in the Maghreb and backed by the righteous hand of Persia. Our armies, armed with the courage of the faithful and the justice of our cause, will cleanse Aegyptus of its corruption and restore it to the fold of the Islamic world.
To our soldiers, I say this: You are the sword of Allah, the defenders of our faith, and the liberators of our people. Fight with honor, fight with bravery, and fight with the knowledge that you are on the side of righteousness. Victory is assured for those who walk in the path of Allah.
To the rulers of Aegyptus, I say this: Your time is over. The will of Allah will prevail, and your regime will crumble before the might of the faithful. Surrender now, and spare your people the suffering of war. Resist, and face the full wrath of the Caliphate.
May Allah grant us victory, may He strengthen our resolve, and may He guide us to triumph in this noble endeavor. Together, we will forge a future where the light of Islam shines brightly over all our lands, uniting us in peace, prosperity, and faith.
Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!"
The crowd erupts in chants of "Allahu Akbar" as the Caliph raises his hands in a gesture of divine invocation. The broadcast ends, leaving the nation and its allies galvanized for the impending conflict. The message is clear:
The Caliphate is committed to a holy war to reclaim Aegyptus and restore its perceived rightful place in the Islamic world.

In the early hours of the following morning, Aegyptus early warning systems blared as multiple ballistic missile launches were picked up from within the Arabic Caliphate and from the west on the border with Maghreb. The order is given to get every Airframe possible in the air and ground forces to disperse to defensive positions.
Due to rising tensions with their neighbors, Aegyptus has had constant air patrols on their borders. Now supported by the massive amount of Airframes being dispatched do to the alarm. Early warning aircraft from Aegyptus begin to see massive waves of aircraft heading towards major civilian populations. Mig-23's and 27's cross the border by the dozens as the first ballistic missiles crash into military and civilian targets across the country.
From the west comes sporadic Grad and Artillery file as small amounts of motorized infantry attempt to break through Aegyptus hardened border with Maghreb.
A handful of Mig-21 Fishbeds shoot east to assist in the massive air battle over the southern border.
Caliphate ATGMs slam into Aegyptus amor to make way for T-72s, T-80s, and massive amounts of troops. As they blitz into the Sinai. Overrunning Aegyptus defenses that had been battered by artillery and airstrikes with ease they execute those who surrender while pushing west.
In the Red Sea, Aegyptus naval assets attempt to intercept Caliphate missiles that had been launched in mass. Many frigates are exhausted of interceptors which leaves them open to anti-ship missiles from the south. The Aegyptus navy in the Mediterranean begins to pepper the Sinai to slow down the Caliphate.
