That's pretty much like saying blacks aren't of equal status. It has nothing to do with the individual but the society as whole, and any society can change with the proper direction and time. In 200 years we might be the ones who people call savages while the middle east becomes a group of secular nations that are leaps and bounds ahead of us.
Read Buffon from the 1700's or any European rhetoric about the new world and it's being an inferior place with inferior races & cultures that can't compete with the grandeur of the European nations.

I understand too is an adverb and to is a preposition, I still prefer using to in place of too.

That's pretty much like saying you've never been there and have no idea what the country is like, nor how they would treat your Christian brothers if the contols were lifted, but you are willing to gamble with other people's lives to satisfy your need for imaginary political correctness. I'm sure my Coptic friends will appreciate your urbane wittiness as they are beheaded by savage animals in the name of religion.

Political correctness is saying what the **** kind of government Egypt should have. It's not our decision and it's a new "conservative" idea that we control international politics, it sure as hell wasn't something we had any desire to do until after WW2. And when it comes to puppet governments we can't even do that right. Meddling in other affairs only results in chaos as evident of what we're currently seeing.
A small list of countries we've helped by empowering dictators in recent history... I even put them in alphabetical order.
Bolivia, Brunei, Cambodia, Chile, Cuba, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Fiji, Greece, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Indonesia
Iran, Liberia, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan, Rhodesia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Turkey, Uganda, Vietnam, Zaire...
I believe we shouldn't be in the business of nation building. Instead of spending billions feeding Africans lets feed Americans, instead of spending billions building roads in Afghanistan lets repair our failing infrastructure that's 60 years old. Hurt us, we just bomb you back to the stone age and let you rebuild on your own. But I fully support a persons wanting to be free and trying to gain that freedom, but I don't believe we should interfere for either side.

Lets not forget what happens when you stop a vehicle in a crowd of unfriendly folks:

During the funeral of Kevin Brady, killed at Milltown Cemetery (16 March 1988), a car approached the funeral procession at high speed. It was claimed by some present that they feared another attack by Loyalist gunmen. The car's passage was blocked and a group of the mourners attacked the two passengers. The two men in the car were later identified as corporals Derek Wood and David Howes of the British Army. One of the soldiers fired a warning shot but both were beaten and overpowered. The two soldiers were driven to waste ground and shot dead. Part of this incident was also recorded on television news cameras

Nahh, the old days it you just did a full-on occupation and then either annexed it, or if you wanted to keep the brown people at arms' length you called it a "colony" or "protectorate".
Puppet governments and indirect control via economic pressure are nothing new, though.

Some years ago I read an analysis to the effect that within four (4) hours, Israel could essentially depopulate (90% kill rate) Egypt, Iran and Syria with nukes.

And it was true.

No its not like saying blacks aren't of equal status. Gotta throw in a little racism?
Theres many races of people who are muslims. Asians, persians, arabs, blacks....The religion has nothing to do with a persons skin color. There isn't a single predominately muslim country that places any kind of value of human life that is in any way comparable to western nations.
Life there is a dime a dozen.
