The US, UK, and France support Israel due to financial interests. The Suez Canal, owned by the French and British, connects the Red Sea to the Mediterranean. In 1956, Egypt nationalized the canal, causing tensions. A peace treaty was signed in 1979, but it was later revealed that the US had planned to excavate the Negev Desert with nuclear bombs. The proposed Ben Gurion Canal would be deeper and wider than the Suez Canal, allowing larger ships to pass through. It would also bypass the inconvenient placement of the Gaza Strip. Israel aims to annex Gaza to build the canal, benefiting financially and gaining geopolitical advantage. This would weaken Arab states' leverage against the US, UK, France, and Israel.
