[/OOC]George smiles "Why do we need to wait for tea to continue our discussion? Does the tea merely make us civilized, or or you implying I or my Egyptian colleagues are not civilized? No matter, the tea is on it's way, along with milk and sugar. No biscuits though I am afraid gentlemen. But I am glad you brought up the canal General Woolsley. For you are right in that a British military force would be needed to protect British interests in the canal. However....." George pauses, takes a drink of water, relishing the looks of discomfort on the general's faces and continues "However, Her Majesty Queen Neferka, Pharaoh of Egypt and the Nile has deemed that the canal, being solely within the borders of Egypt, should be the sovereign right and entity of Egypt. Which is why the canal is to be seized and nationalized, today. The previous contracts over financing of the canal and preferential rates for ships of certain nations are hereby suspended and cancelled due to their being usurious, deceptive, and constructed to ensure the financial failure of the canal, thus forcing the relinquishing of interest by Egypt. This was done quite purposefully and now it shall be rectified. If the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland wishes to have ANY access to the canal, her representatives will be cooperative, or India may prove to be hard to rule having to sail around the Cape of Good Hope all the time. Oh look the tea is here." says George. "Would you care for a cup of tea Princess?" George asks Amisi.</blockquote>
