It is morning again in Egypt. Today, more sheep and goats will be born than ever before in our country's history, with twice the amount of monuments being built by any previous pharaoh. Nearly 100,000 men will be sent to protect our peace in Nubia and Syria, more than any army ever known. This sunrise, 85,000 young men and women will be joining our religious cause, and with national morale higher than that of Amenhotep III's They can look forward with confidence to the greatness of Egypt. It's morning again in Egypt, and under the leadership of Pharaoh Ramses II, our country is prouder, stronger, and better. Why would we ever want to return where we were under the rule of Hatshepsut just 350 years ago?
