H.S. Soharwardy lost support at home because his government did not extend support in 1956 to:
A
Saudi Arabia
B
Iran
C
Palestine
D
Egypt
Explanation and memory cue
In 1956, during the Suez Crisis, the issue of Palestine was central to regional tensions. The United Kingdom and other Western governments, including the United States, maintained support for Israel's security and did not extend direct governmental support to the Palestinian Arab cause. Egypt, Iraq, and Jordan proposed plans for an independent Palestinian republic in the Gaza Strip to rally refugee support, but these were viewed skeptically by Western powers. H.S. Soharwardy, as a Pakistani leader, lost support domestically because his government did not extend support to Palestine in 1956, a critical issue for many in Pakistan at the time. This aligns with the historical context where Palestine was a key concern and lack of support for it caused political backlash.
