I te marama o Noema 1956, i tino whakahe a Dulles i te whakaekenga a Ingarangi-Whariki ki te rohe o te Suez Canal hei whakautu ki te whakangao a Ihipa i te awaawa
He aha? I roto i nga ra tino nui, i hopukina a Dulles i muri i te pokanga, kaore hoki i uru ki nga whakataunga a te tari US. I te tau 1958 kua tu ia hei hoa riri ki te Perehitini o Ihipa a Gamal Abdel Nasser, a ka aukati i te kawanatanga o Nasser ki te whiwhi patu mai i te United States. Na taua kaupapa i whai mana ai te Soviet Union ki Ihipa.
