The press is reporting that Sisi led the coup over the legally elected Morsi.
Putin is very busy right now; I can nearly guarantee that Egypt is not on his radar. Similarly, Al-Sisi has much work to do within Egypt. They are not natural allies at this time.
El Sisi is no Sisi.
In order to actually crush the MB, that means he has to help put them down in Israel (i.e. Hamas) and cooperate with Israel to do so.

I agree on this. But an Egyptian judge did sentence 600 of the MB leaders to death. That judge has not been assassinated. There’s more here. I think the MB has seriously embarrassed themselves by getting in bed with Obama. He is the kiss of death to those people. In the arab/moslem street sense the MB by cozying up to Obama have neutered themselves.
