Prelude
The USA and USSR have been competing in the Middle East for oil and the USSR decided to make a deal with Egypt. The deal was that Egypt, along with Soviet reinforcements, would take the British control Suez Canal and invade Israel and Egypt would only export oil to the USSR and its allies. Egypt agreed and declared war in 1955.

Aftermath
The US, UK, and Israel won with Israel taking the Sinai Peninsula with the UK taking back the rest of Egypt. The USSR was seen as an aggressor and Saudi Arabia improved relations with NATO.
