  What I have found interesting for sometime is the fact that the United States federal government urlLink gives more money to the government of Egypt than to any other except Israel.
Yet they still refuse after 20 years to move toward free market reforms and greater freedom for their people. Not to mention the fact that the Coptic Orthodox Church of Egypt is persecuted and urlLink discriminated against by the government . Once again, your tax dollars at work. And I'm sure many so-called "evangelical Christians" in the United States are concerned when Muslims persecute Christians, but urlLink not when Israelis do .
However, I'm sure a lot of evangelical Protestants don't really care since they consider us Orthodox Christians not be Christians, while they treat Israeli Orthodox Jewish extremists who hate Christianity as their allies. Why do we continue to give money to the likes of Egypt (and Israel)? If you want empirical evidence, hasn't 20 years of nothing but more oppression demonstrated the failure in our policy?
