You missed my point. US foreign aid to Israel is far, far larger than US foreign aid to its neighbours. One might therefore argue that Americans (who fund that foreign aid with their taxes) might be entitled to criticize Israel's human rights abuses more loudly than Egypts (or to hold Israel to a higher standard).
I don't see what arms sales to Saudi Arabia (which are probably dwarfed by arms sales to Israel anyway) has to do with anything.
