Nasser standing up to Western imperialism is another factor of encouraging Arab unity such as the 1956 Suez crisis. An example is Nasser persuading British troops to leave the Suez Canal showing independence once again. Nasser, viewed as high prestige now, aimed to unite the Arab world. Although the operation was a military success it allowed Israel to occupy the Sinai. However, Nasser had forced the West into submission.
U.S. President Harry Truman’s decision to help Israel become a sovereign country has many pros and cons. Nazis had oppressed Jews for several years, and when they were finally liberated, the U.N. felt they deserved to have a country of their own. The president’s studies of the Bible influenced him to believe that the Jews should immigrate to Palestine and divide it so that the surviving Jews can have their own sovereign country, Israel. However, this choice has advantages and disadvantages, as one might expect. One disadvantage to Truman’s decision to support Israel in becoming a sovereign country is that U.S. relations with the Arabs can be affected.
Although it was the underdog, it was quite effective and had a huge impact in liberation and imperialism. Ghandi is a famous and common name brought up in nonviolence methods.

The imposed ending to the Suez Crisis made him a hero throughout the Arab world. He was also instrumental in the establishment of the international Non-Aligned Movement. He is well known for his nationalist policies and version of pan-Arabism, also referred to as Nasserism, which won a great following in the Arab World during the 1950s and 1960s. Although his status as "leader of the Arabs" was badly damaged by the Israeli victory over the Arab armies in the Six-Day War, as well as Egypt's failure to win the subsequent War of Attrition against Israel, many in the general Arab population still view Nasser as a symbol of Arab dignity and freedom.

Darius also gained the favor and praise of many Jews for allowing them to return to Jerusalem and rebuilding a temple destroyed by Babylonian conquerors in 587 B.C.E. While Persians acknowledged the traditions and cultures of those they ruled, the rulers of Han dynasty did the opposite. Han Wudi, an emperor of China, pursued a policy of expansion and had a great desire to expand his territories further. North Vietnam and Korea are two lands he invaded and subjected under the Han rule. He ruled both these lands through a Chinese-styled government, a centralized government that relied on Legalist principles, and imposed Confucian values.
Nasser was a colonel in the Egyptian army and was the leader of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952 along the first president, Muhammad Naguib, who overthrew the Sudanese and Egyptian monarchies and constituted the republic of Egypt. He was a core participant in the Free Officers movement that sought to unseat the Egyptian monarchy and end the British occupation.

Omar’s government is under attack by combined armies of over 60,000 rebels. Omar was the president during 2005 when the Islamic theologian, Hassan al-Turabi, allowed the terrorist Osama Bin Laden, to establish headquarters of the al-Qaeda group in Sudan(Natsios). The fight between Sudan and South Sudan started over 5 decades ago due to the fact that South Sudan wanted to be its own country, but Sudan wouldn’t let that happen. Sudan thinks everyone
The self-interest of individual Arab states was a major role in the causing of Arab disunity. During the 1948 arab-Israeli war Egypt and Jordan used the war to gain the west bank and the Gaza strip. The Arab forces were unorganized and failed to acheive their goal of the destruction of Israel but Egypt and Jordan were successful in gaining the west bank and Gaza strip. This shows us that Egypt and Jordan wasn’t worried about defeating Israel as long as they gained land, which shows us that Egypt and Jordan were not unified with the other Arab forces. In the 1956 Suez crisis Nasser, thw leader of Egypt was only after more power and he didn't think of how his actions would affect the rest of the stab states, which shows us that the self-interest of an Arab state caused disunity amongst the Arabs.
