The Soviet Union made postwar advances to Egypt after the 1956 Israeli-Arab War and the internationally condemned jointly invasion of the Suez Canal by British and French airborne forces aided by Israeli ground forces, an event that greatly angered the Egyptian public opinion and made an approach of the Soviet government to the Egyptian government far easier. As a result, the Soviet Union supplied the Egyptian armed forces with weapons systems of all kinds, tanks, jet aircraft, radar systems, artillery pieces, etc. plus extensive technical assistant by Soviet advisers.
The other Mediterranean country the Soviet union approached to was Syria which also received plenty of Soviet-made war matériel and technical assistance.
In both cases, the British and French support to Israel in the early 1950s drove Egypt and Syria away from Western powers and threw them into the Soviet sphere of influence. It is worth of note that the Soviet Union did not request any payment for the aid supplied and avoided any criticism or interference with the Islamic faith prevalent in both countries.
1. During World War I, many women joined the military forces. They did so mostly in non-combat roles, such as nurses and switchboard operators. However, about 13,000 women were also admitted into active duty in the U.S. Navy. The government compensated all women who joined the war effort. The women in the Navy received the same benefits and responsibilities as men, including identical pay and veteran status after the war.
2. All Americans were interested in the war effort, and this meant that most of them valued the active role that women were taking. However, this did not necessarily translated to a more egalitarian approach to their private lives, as women continued to fulfill traditional roles.
3. A lot of women felt empowered because of the role they were playing in the war. They entered the workforce in large numbers, and developed a social, independent life outside of home.
4. The participation of women in the war led to a change in traditional gender roles. Women were able to gain more freedom and appreciation. They were also able to build a life outside their home. This encouraged them to fight for equal rights, particularly when it came to suffrage.
