"Aligned" is doing a lot of work here.

Does some part of the Egyptian government have an interest in doing certain things entirely because of America's influence? Sure. Is that the only reason for their behaviour? Of course not.

I just want people to keep in mind that Egypt (and everywhere else) is full of humans who are just as smart or dumb, brave or cowardly, immoral or righteous, as any other country, and those humans are perfectly capable of deciding to do both good and evil things without blaming it on "america".
