Weeping protesters told this man that "we are your soldiers" after he attempted to resign in the June 9 speech. One of this leader's actions was backed by the US thanks to CIA operative Miles Copeland but was opposed by Operation Musketeer. After all of his country's parties were banned, this man led the Liberation Rally organization. He deposed his ally Mohammed Naguib after overthrowing King Farouk at the head of the Free Officers Movement. This leader faced off with Anthony Eden during a crisis begun by his nationalization of a canal, and he names a lake created by one of his projects, the Aswan Dam. For 10 points, name this man succeeded by Anwar Sadat, a president of Egypt.
