If by "Suez Struggle" the question is asking about the Suez Crisis of 1956, also called the Arab-Israeli War of 1956, the Sinai Campaign of 1956, or the Tripartite War of 1956, then the question is easy to answer: the US had no ally in that war since the US served the function of peacemaker in that conflict. The US opposed both Egypt for having nationalized the canal without giving useful assurances of its neutrality in operation (i.e. to hold by the Convention of Constantinople) and Israel, the UK, and France for having invaded Egypt to force the Egyptians' hand.
