#1 It is very difficult to maintain a real economy in in-stable regions and with unstable friends.

King Mubarak struggled with the economies in various regions for a long time.
He did try very hard to get the Sinai some relief.

Without a security dividend, a true one, that investment becomes moot and locals seldom stand up to maintain it unless there are heavies.
The corruption is rampant - a by product of islam to start with but added stress of Jihadis from ALQ and Daesh never helped.

Morsi would have already made this a state operation for Daesh had he and his nazis were still in charge.

My view:

Back Sisi to the hilt. Do not let him falter.

He is one hope we all have right now, because logic.

Also, I like him
alot.
