Suez Crisis (All Parts): Causes, Conflict and Global Repercussions

[@EpichistoryTv]

This is a series I made back in 2018, re-released as a single documentary, which always seems a more popular format. This is the story of the 1956 Suez Crisis, when the world faced an international energy supply crisis, politicians warned of repeating the mistakes of 1930s appeasement, and a Russian leader was sending tanks into a European capital to crush hopes of greater freedom... The sort of events that until recently, we might have hoped were consigned to history.

An interesting thing was the fallout from this. The South African port of Cape Town, was absolutely overrun. We had so much business from the companies who had to bypass to alternative routes that for the next 20 years we got masses of income.

Although there’s one thing the British did gain from the Suez Crisis… The creation of the Mini Cooper. The Suez Crisis caused oil and fuel prices to sky rocket, which made running a car very expensive. Various manufacturers tried to build smaller cars to make increase fuel efficiency, but they were so small that they weren’t popular. Then Mini came up with a good idea. Instead mounting the engine longitudinally, they mount it transversely. Which in turn allowed them to make the engine bay more compact and make the car big enough to fit four, fully, grown adults inside. And more importantly, it was very fuel efficient. On average the Mini was able to do 56mpg, which is a lot. And to this day, car manufacturers still mount the engines transversely. At least in FWD hatchbacks that’s the case.

In 1956 I was a cadet in my school CCF unit. At about the time the Suez crisis was developing our CCF contingent was at a 2 week annual "camp" at HMS St Vincent in Gosport. HMS ST Vincent was a shore training unit for cadets and boy seaman presumably prior to their assignment as junior seamen on Royal Navy ships. For the first part of our stay there we were the only boys there to experience the Royal Navy services. This included a naked one length swim of the very cold pool before breakfast. During our stay there we visited HMS Dolphin, a submarine depot where we shown on board on one of the vessels. We also visited a Gunnery practice range where we allowed to operate a shore based anti aircraft gun installation (no ammo!). To aid our experience the marine aircraft section provided a real aircraft "attacking" our position from over the horizon. We were to control the gun to follow this target and "shoot it down". We were not very good at that!. Our term at St Vincent was cut short when all boy seamen from the carriers and support vessels in port were transferred to HMS St Vincent. Boy seamen were not permitted on active service. The ships were preparing to leave on the Suez campaign... On our penultimate day at the camp we had a race to climb the flag mast. The race was to touch the "cap" at the top. I think I won that.. ! I am now 83y.o. and the fond memories remain.

The suez crisis isn’t really talked about in American history classes because it creates a narrative that the modern school system is against: the US isn’t an objectively good or bad state, it’s a state run by hundreds of democratically elected people with varying agendas, leading to decisions that are both morally bad and good. The modern school system would prefer you think that the U.S. is evil and terrible, except for fighting the Nazis(the Japanese and Italians don’t matter because Japan makes anime and Italy is a good vacation spot🤪🤪). I’m not here to make a absolute political statement that all American school are indoctrinating students to hate the U.S., because that isn’t true, there are some great school districts that are in the middle, and there are some school districts that teach a false narrative that American is the world’s superhero and that it’s never done bad, but it’s undeniably true that the general direction that the school system is taking is towards a “hate the U.S.” narrative,

I concur, being an American we didn't hear a peep taunt to us about this issue or anything close to it by any teacher or instructor. A tiny bit about the Cuba Missile crisis but not clearly defined. You can clearly see why moves were made on both sides from the video. The game of politics is always sticky, and it seems like a Vietnam scenario, where the west was the aggressors and not the other way around. I actually understand more on the Israeli point of view with the Egyptian blockade in place disrupting their trade south. This was the time France and England were losing their colonies worldwide.

By your own logic, the US would have never shut up about the Suez Crisis since the US took a part in ending colonialism and thus was on the "right side of history" in this case. The US doesn't celebrate much of its own achievements in world history, and often focuses on specific critical moments for US history and the collective psyche. The Suez Crisis, to be blunt, had little effect on either.

My late aunt was a schoolteacher at the time of the War of the Tripartite Aggression. Even before the war broke out, all the schoolteachers and the secondary school students capable of bearing arms in her Cairo district-males and females-had undergone a military education course, including live firearms instruction using the Lee-Enfield bolt-action rifle. They were taught range estimation, windage estimation, and shooting at moving targets. They were also taught grenade-throwing, how to prepare and best use Molotov cocktails, and things of that nature. It was a very comprehensive course. Once the war broke out, teachers and students who had passed the course were issued rifles and ammunition to keep in their homes, in the event that the foreign invaders reached Cairo. They were expected to provide assistance to Egyptian Army, National Guard, and Police units in their area as needed. In the event that there were no local Army/NG/Police officers that they could receive orders from, they were ordered to resist invading forces at their own initiative, to the best of their ability, for as long as possible. After the war ended and the threat had receded, the teachers and students returned the firearms and ammunition back to the authorities. Nearly 40 years after the war, when I was just a teenager, I owned a 4.5mm (.177 caliber) air rifle. My aunt had just told me about the military training that she had received in her twenties. I asked her to show me. May Allah be my witness, she proved that she had forgotten nothing from that military training course. Even on a gusty day, she was able to estimate windage like a pro, and even with that weak air rifle of mine, was able to hit consistent groups on the target from both standing and kneeling positions, even at the extreme range of the rifle. Just imagine, a dignified lady, in her late sixties, in a hijab and long dress, having a great time scoring bullseyes, proud that she hadn’t lost her touch even after almost 4 decades, and telling me that she wished that she had a real rifle, so she could teach me how to shoot for real. Truly, it was such an impressive moment, and I’ll never forget this memory of my late aunt. May Allah have mercy upon her soul and grant her Paradise!

My neighbor worked for one of the people that helped in construction of the dam when she was in college in the 60s. (An architect I think) She was surprised I knew about it, or the crisis. I'm not surprised. I don't recall ever hearing more than the name in school prior to my college world history class. Even then, they were only mentioned when briefly discussing who Nasser was with no further details given. I would be surprised if they even mention it at all pre college anymore here in the U.S.

Eisenhower was one of the few really good presidents in US history and is one of the only Cold War presidents with a truly good character on the international stage. While JFK urged tensions and almost gave the green light for nuclear war and Reagan was calling bluffs, Eisenhower was setting a moral barrier to not be stepped over and making sure NATO kept to its mission statement. The U.S. in the Cold War committed all sorts of questionable acts in the name of gaining an edge, but I genuinely applaud them for leaving their interests at bay to stop the British, French, and Israelis.

You can see this war as the moment the British lost their independence.

Lol what?

The US were also unable to stop multiple nuke strikes by air craft directly on their cities in their own air space. Even recently the in exercises, the British beat the US so fast they had to restart the exercise. The US goes nowhere without the British. Time and time again the British win where ever they go, while the US loses. The only power the US has is economic and they have that power over every country in the world.
