neutral · AI labelView post →If you need to listen to some EXTREMELY DERANGED political history this weekend, the first two episodes of our Suez Crisis series are out on the brilliant Empire podcast with @willdalrymple.bsky.social and @anitaanand.bsky.social. And it’s going to get even wilder.

Crete 1941 - didn’t show up Suez 1956 - didn’t show up Falklands 1982 - didn’t show up Granada 1983 - did show up to British protectorate but were not invited. So que sera sera 🤷♂️

neutral · AI labelView post →Who's been listening to our SUEZ CRISIS series? Episode 4 is out today! How did Britain and France almost start World War 3 in 1956? Who was Anthony Eden and why did he hate Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser? Why was the Suez Canal so vital to European oil supplies in the 1950s?

neutral · AI labelView post →Other things that were the same age as the "Use Your Illusion" albums are now at the time of their release: the Suez Crisis, Elvis' debut on The Ed Sullivan Show, and the nomination of Adlai Stevenson.
neutral · AI labelView post →I dont understand how a ship like this can pass the Suez canal. You should be required to show your insurance and registration details for passage!

neutral · AI labelView post →The US should show those Strait of Hormuz-mining Iranians what's what by mining both the Suez and Panama Canals.
neutral · AI labelView post →I once stopped reading in the middle of the 4th or 5th installment of a series because a character said, "I can't wait for the Suez Canal to open, it'll make the journey from Alexandria to London so much shorter." Another book also had tomatoes and humming birds in late 15th century Venice.
neutral · AI labelView post →Not the kind of history Farage wants but two-part series on Channel 4 on Suez 1956 is worth a look. The end of Britain's imperial role. Clips of Nye Bevan speaking at a Law not War protest in Trafalgar Square & a statue being blown up in Port Said
neutral · AI labelView post →Andor discourse is exhausting. The show is beautiful and meaningful but not EVERYTHING means something. "Saw Gerrera's jet pack represents the Suez Canal. Which is why he'd vote Libertarian" You gotta go outside sometimes I'm begging you. Feel the sun.
neutral · AI labelView post →2) The case for resilience vs. optimization was made by @brianklaas.bsky.social in January, starting with how contrasting shocks illuminate the fragility of global shipping through the Suez Canal vs. the distributed Estonian power grid &he goes on to show how resilience is key to evolution: 7/19
neutral · AI labelView post →Goon Show 7.1: The Nasty Affair At The Burami Oasis. A British garrison at a location not too dissimilar to the Suez Canal comes under attack, and meanwhile there's a football match to be won. Good start to the seventh series, dodgy accents aside. #GoonForARun www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

neutral · AI labelView post →I want a James Bond series that's set in the 50s, and has him experiencing historical events like the Iranian Coup, Suez Crisis, and Hungarian Revolution. Or at the very least a much closer adaptation of the novels. Moonraker was probably my favorite book and the movie... ughhh
neutral · AI labelView post →20/20 Over the next 24–72 hours, watch for verified mine warnings, electronic interference reports or changes to actual sailings through Bab al’Mandeb. New demands on ships, restrictions on insurance cover and diversions away from Suez will show how the threat is changing commercial decisions.

neutral · AI labelView post →TTTT To Tell The Truth Dick Van Dyke two episodes: pilot + Dec 1956 1956 = Suez Crisis first guest = Mitchell Parish, lyricist behind American standards like Stardust and Deep Purple (GAY) Obituary on 2 April (1993) birthday of Leon Russell (Elton John's mentor) and "the day the Marlboro Man fell"
neutral · AI labelView post →Terrific series. Don't know why I find the Suez Crisis so fascinating but it appears I'm not the only one.
neutral · AI labelView post →Goon Show 7.22: The Africa Ship Canal. In the wake of the 1956 Suez Crisis, in which planes were unable to fly over the Suez Canal, Seagoon proposes to build another canal the length of Africa which planes can fly over instead. #GoonForARun www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
neutral · AI labelView post →His fucking austerity based on flawed data & sociopathic ideology combined with Cameron’s entitled arrogance re the non-legally binding, non-super maj Brexit ref, was the biggest political shit show since Suez & the pair of them can fuck off into the sun They started all of this decade of chaos
neutral · AI labelView post →All the talk about just making the series a pre-Suez period piece (which I know they’d never actually do) indicates they’re well aware of this problem behind the scenes
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't know if the world is prepared for what Amber Kraak and Elise Chabbey will show next year at FDJ-Suez - if you lose sight of them for a second, they will attack, around 12.5 occasions in a single race. Individually they're strong, but together.... it is something on another level.
neutral · AI labelView post →Book 10 done; Blood and Sand, a diplomatic history of the Suez and Hungary crises in 1956 by @alexvont.bsky.social. Lays out a complex series of situations in a well-written package, and is a good reminder that the UK/US relationship isn't always the most important game in town.

unlabelledView post →Good idea which would never work in UK with its pathetic clinging to the myth of a "special relationship" with USA, despite all evidence to the contrary, from Suez to Trump. Still kept alive by endless films, tv series, spy stories.
unlabelledView post →I really loved The Hour, a beautiful series. But couldn’t believe they didn’t do the *actual* story of the BBC during Suez. Troops were sent in. It’s so dramatic. If you needed that, it would have kept both storylines in close step.

unlabelledView post →This will be much worse than the Strait of Hormuz closure as it could effectively close the Suez Canal route. Will somebody have to show him a map or will he just declare war against every country bordering the Red Sea?

unlabelledView post →The anchorage areas around the north and south Suez Canal are a very confusing shit show. Crowded. Lots of deceptive lights. I had a bad experience on the south approach back in the day
unlabelledView post →Here's a spicy one: even though Suez is directly depicted and the Cambridge Five obliquely referred to in the series, the Crown wishes neither had happened.
unlabelledView post →It’s a travesty that 5 years after the event, we still don’t have a movie or a mini-series about the Evergiven and the Suez Canal. It was the most glorious global news story ever. It impacted many, yet hurt no one. It had global commerce drama and slapstick comedy. It unfolded hilariously […]

unlabelledView post →Didn’t 45 say he defeated the IS during his first term? Then why are we bombing them? Why not go after Boko Haram or Al-Shabaab which have much larger forces or Houthis who attack shipping lanes to the Suez Canal? It’s all for show. abcnews.go.com/Politics/us-...
unlabelledView post →Was watching BBC series set in the time of the Suez crisis, and there were a few scenes shot on a street of postwar semis, and that looked wildly anachronistic in comparison with their clothes and hair because unlike them the houses look exactly the same today.

unlabelledView post →Could one of these even make it through the Suez Canal or the enlarged Panama Canal? Or would they be like VLCCs today. (It’s amazing how much I have learned watching your show Sal)

unlabelledView post →Empire pod is my current favorite, if you like world history. Great interviews, their series on the Suez Crisis was awesome and obviously super relevant for right now
unlabelledView post →What if Iran just wedges a series of ships in the Suez now too?
unlabelledView post →Trade underpins food security, but it relies on infrastructure and logistics systems. Disruptions in the Suez and Panama canals show how chokepoints raise structural costs. Our modeling suggests $91-95B annual losses ($18-19B in food trade). Food security requires resilient trade portfolios.
