With the technology that WE gave Israel, they don't need no friends in the middle east.
They have the power now to be GOD.
Other countries in the middle east only have minor amounts of 20th Century technology. Israel has 22nd Century technology WE made...that very few people on Earth even knows it exists.
Israel won't even need 6 days to wipe everyone out. They will point and click and assets in space will decimate nations.
What does everyone think they've been doing with the BILLIONS we give them free every year? Or why many of our Defense Research Labs are over there? They've had control of our Federal Reserve for how many decades? Does anyone rationalize what they could have built with Trillions they liberated annually from us?
Nobody on Earth will touch Israel. Sure a few people will get in with suicide bombs...but that's IT. They don't even need US anymore.

But please feel free to enlighten us as how the USA will prevent the people of Egypt from being the masters of their own destiny and that a part of that being the management of the Suez Canal.
please clarify for me just what in the hell you are babbling about.
The question that I put forth to you could not have been made any clearer. If you still can't understand it, than perhaps you should just move along.
yeah. good advice. i will move along by letting you know that, for all practical purposes, the united states OWNS egypt, just like it OWNS all of the other "countries" in the persian sandbox.
it humors me that these so-called "arabs" and "persian" sheiks and kings think that they exist for any reason other than by virtue of the kindness and tolerance of the american people.
make no mistake about it. without the tacit agreement of the united states, the people who (at least at this point) occupy those regions would be at best starving, wandering around lost in the desert and wondering just where their next bite of camel was coming from. At worst, they would be disintegrated carbon fragments lying fused with a pan of silica.
listen up, persian gulf occupants: don't you people kid yourself into thinking that you are meaningful on the world stage. you are an increasingly inconvenient afterthought.

unless the USA deploy a battalion just to secure the canal .. now its the Egyptian people who control it
Maybe the Yanks should have backed the Brits and French in 1956. Then Suez would have been secure

do you people really believe that the united states is going to let an "unfriendly" country or entity control the suez canal?
do you really believe that?
The USA might have to swallow a bitter pill indeed so yes I do believe that the USA might just find itself having to cope with a new power (perhaps even a Moslem one at that) controlling the Suez Canal.
But please feel free to enlighten us as how the USA will prevent the people of Egypt from being the masters of their own destiny and that a part of that being the management of the Suez Canal.
Did my country really think that making friends with one dictator and one king gave us 'allies' forever? That we could could then relax forever and pursue an idiotic, arrogant, illegal settlements policy forever and no one would mind? Can we really be so stupid? The wakeup call had to come eventually and here it is. If we want to have allies, let alone friends, we have to start behaving like a good neighbour, not a fanatical bully.
But slowly and surely the hegomony of the USA is collapsing, the ultimate school yard bully is finally getting his come-uppance.
