This is a well-written explanation of the Suez crisis and the geopolitical relationships that were affected by this quick conflict between the British, French, and Israeli, versus the Egyptians. One thing I appreciated was the clear explanation of Great Britain's decline during and after WWII. This discussion explained that England was financially decimated by the wars and did not realize that they could only fight with support.
I remember there being discussion about the Suez Canal and the unrest in the 1950s but this put the story in clear relief. It is very readable and understandable. The analysis shows the change in geopolitical strengths after WWII. Overall score = E.
