Generally speaking, a dhimmi's lot is not a happy one and basically he has only those rights that the local ruler gives him.

1. Isn't the same thing true for the non-Jewish citizens of Israel today? They are only allowed the rights that the local rulers give them? You probably know the current rules better than me, but aren't non-Jews not allowed in the military, have restrictions on citizenship for their non-Israeli, non-Jewish wives, and other various limitations, which are determined by the current "local ruler".

2. I live in a "Muslim country", ruled by Muslims, and I'm not Muslim. It's fine. I don't pay any dhimmi tax, or any tax at all other than restaurant/hotel tax and alcohol consumption tax. I certainly don't pay any tax that Muslims don't pay. Haven't been to a Muslim court for any disputes with Muslims yet, so stay out of court, and things are pretty good.
