The key point - which no one has ever bothered to pay much attention to - is that Egypt was very much part, perhaps even the critical part, of the blockade. As soon as they weren't, the main Israeli blockade could not realistically be held either.

Egypt is neither Jewish nor democratic nor supported by the US, so they can by definition not do any wrong. Tongue

The second-largest recipient of US aid is indeed not supported by the US, good of you to remind us.

You know that isn't the same thing, at all. I'm talking about political support, not material aid. Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan and all those other countries aren't supported by the US in the sense Israel is.
