First Arab-Israeli War Egyptian Revolution of 1952
Khaled Mohieddine (Egyptian Arabic: خالد محيي الدين, IPA:[ˈxæːledˈmoħjedˈdiːn]; August 17, 1922 – May 6, 2018) was an Egyptian military officer, revolutionary and politician. As a member of the Free Officers Movement, he participated in the toppling of King Farouk that began the Egyptian Revolution of 1952, and led to the establishment of the Republic of Egypt.
Mohieddine held important political and media roles throughout Gamal Abdel Nasser's presidency, although the two also had a number of fallings out. An outspoken individual, he was one of the few members of the revolutionary inner circle of Egypt able to disagree passionately with Nasser whilst still retaining Nasser's respect and admiration. His political influence diminished during the early part of Anwar Sadat's presidency until he cofounded a leftist political party, National Progressive Union Party (Tagammu), in 1976.
Under Mohieddine's leadership, Tagammu became a significant opposition force during Hosni Mubarak's rule.
