To understand the relationship of the West to Egypt , you need to think strategically .
Egypt has been instrumental with Saudi Arabia in keeping a measure of stability within the Middle East .
Without these two buffers there would have been carnage a long time ago and possibly even something approaching a World War if the US stepped in --- which they would -- and Russia took up an obstructive position -- which would be highly likely .
It has been absolutely critical to keep Egypt and Israel tolerating each other and the Suez canal open with fundamentalist and extremists under control.
We are all aware of how Egypt has been run for at least the last thirty years , but in this World game of Chess , you require priorities .
And , in this instance , we cannot directly interfere in internal matters . We simply seek to advise and try and persuade behind the scenes .
Much as we do with your country . We can't start to tell Putin how to run your country even though his policies have been hopeless . All we can do is chat quietly behind the scenes and occasionally win a small concession .
In summary , you need to always recognise the difference between long term idealistic aims and the practical difficulties of actually running the world now and preventing bloodshed  wherever possible .
