#1 As soon as Sisi took charge, he saw the threat upon the Sinai and took corrective action.
He did so well that Israel green lighted his OPS too so this is one thing they are in concert about.

Sinai is out of control and must be reigned in.

Egypt doesn't really needs Sinai - unless they planning a war with Israel. They sure as hell can't control it.

#4 Israel is control authority but I don't think they actually want the Sinai. Egypt has plans for it tho.
