Military salut for Ramses II

Nothing against Egypt, egyptians or Ramses the II but I remembered him as the pharaoh who got his ass kicked in one of his campaigns, came back to Egypt saying that he won and paraded in the capital as the victor. I guess war is as much about perception as it is about deception.

Ramses II was not a Muslim and certainly wouldn't like to be desecrated by Muslims. Egyptians should either abandon Islam or abandon the ancient Egyptian legacy.

Everything we know now about Egypt is due to Europeans.

Probably not as he was educated in his faith but I wouldn't be so sure that he would've been so averse to islam. Rulers usually like a good unifying religion that helps them consolidate the state and their personal hold of that state.
