Warner Troyer hosts this public affairs program reviewing the struggle for control of the Suez Canal. Narrative, maps, photos, interviews and footage of key figures in the canal's history chart American, French, Egyptian, British and Canadian involvement, culminating in the successful 1956 intervention by United Nations peacekeeping forces. Footage includes: former British Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden, whose career was destroyed as a result of his handling of the Suez crisis; Egyptian President Abdel Gamal Nasser, whose seizure of the canal precipitated the crisis; U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles; and former Canadian Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson announcing the resolution to send a peacekeeping force that later won him a Nobel prize. Noteworthy photo of the French foreign minister of the time, Christian Pineau; footage of the 1956 British/French attack on Port Said; and footage of U.N. forces arriving in Egypt. In interview segments, former British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd comments on events in 1956. <30mn>
