In 1956 the world held it’s breath. Israel invaded Egypt, penetrating to within ten miles of the Suez Canal – a key choke point for the world economy. The Egyptians struggled to stem the Israeli tide of shrapnel-spewing steel. The British and French threatened to intervene. The United Nations fell into an uproar. The Soviet Union crushed a Hungarian rebellion against Communist rule. We covered the Hungarian rebellion in episode 26: here. The Middle East was exploding and all eyes were fixed on this one spot – the Canal, the irreplaceable, vital Canal. It’s war. It’s diplomacy. It’s Battlecast.
