Sutherland gets his client's point of view across with suave indirection. He has found it no easy job persuading tycoons that moviegoers resent being pounded over the head with a sales spiel.

Countries like Saudi Arabia and Iraq, though they gave lip service to Nasser when he was attacked, have found his blockage of the canal has cost them dear in oil revenues. The Arab Kings have always resented Nasser's implied threat to reach over their heads to the street mobs in their own countries, have become increasingly aware that Nasser has exploited Arab nationalism primarily for Egypt. The new rulers of Tunisia, Morocco and Libya, the young King of Jordan, the new pro-Western government of Lebanon, though...
