By going lol
If you ever mention being Jewish, I would also mention that you support Palestine. Unfortunately most people will correlate being Jewish with being Zionist.
I myself was there a few months ago.
Well my wife and I are fine with going. But my wife’s parents were going to come with us, so I need to show them that it’s fine. Like lots of Americans I think they have some unconscious bias that the Middle East is dangerous everywhere.
Egypt has a strong intelligence and military apparatus
the Egyptian population is regarded to be kind and funny (excluding the hagglers around the pyramids, those suck ass)
the government cares more about the safety of tourists and their well being than it does that of Egyptians to preserve it's image. Which means you're already safer than the everyday Egyptian.
touristic places such as Cairo, Alexandria, Hurghada, Luxor, are very safe and have a sprawling night life. This could not be achieved if safety was a major concern.
Don't travel by train, you can get a private driver to take you from city to city or buses. Have common sense as a tourist. Don't go to Sinai. Stay away from Sharm El Sheikh if you plan on going to other places in Egypt afterwards or other Arabic nations, in addition to not supporting Zionism.
