I don't see many ethnic Egyptians in places of power that can influence policy or get laws voted concerning their country.
Egypt hasn't always been loyal, certainly not the population.
They overthrew the previous puppet despite US efforts to keep him in place.
When they saw it was hopeless they threw him under the bus and 'supported' the arab spring movement.
In reality they hijacked the revolution and simply put another puppet in place.

Settler-colonialism isn't just about who is in power (although it is about that). That's just regular colonialism, like French Algeria.

Settler-colonialism is about importing settlers to replace the indigenous population while enacting genocidal policies to exterminate or expell the indigenous population. Egypt isn't experiencing that.

That's why Egypt doesn't get the level of support that Israel does.

That is your view.
I disagree.
