It's a bit more nuanced than that. Egypt has an interest in keeping peace with Israel and has assisted in the oppression of Palestine for decades to ensure that interest is protected.

I know, I know, that's the US fault for vetoing resutions requesting Israel respect Muslim holy sites. If only we hadn't done that Egypt never would have assisted in blockading Palestine. Amirite?

Again, does Egypt face ANY responsibility for their own actions I'm blockading Palestine, or is that chalked up to the Great Satan as well?

Lol you reported it? That's kinda funny. It's not a violation of forum rules little buddy. My point there is that if you feel the US actions were terroristic surely no heroes have emerged from te terrorist's terroristic efforts to create terror in Nam? It's a valid point.

Anywho, so Egypt is super bad and evil too for blockading Palestine, right? And is that the US fault as well or does Egypt get to be responsible for its actions in that instance?

Responsibility to its people. Lets walk through this. If the US feels its interests are best served by screwing over everybody in the ME except Israel, is that also just the us uphding it's responsibilities to its people like Egypt? Or do only non-US countries get a pass when acting in their own perceived self interest?
