So it will complain, threaten, and deplore the horrors to come, but ultimately will follow its interests, not its principles. For example, Egypt, with its control of the Suez Canal and its cold peace with Israel, is too important strategically to be simply abandoned.
总体而言，西方（特别是美国）对此几无影响力或真正的控制力。因此，西方会抱怨、威胁和谴责恐怖行为，但最终将根据利益而不是原则行事。比如，掌握着苏伊士运河并且与以色列维持冷和平的埃及战略意义十分重大，不可能弃之不顾。
