A good possibility.
I’m reasonably sure the Egyptian military is of no mind to upset the regional applecart in any significant way.
What I’d like to see; the Egyptian military high command pulls a Turkey.....in other words, a public declaration that they consider themselves the penultimate guarantors of a secular and democratic Egyptian state.
Heh.....the Salafists would need a change of underwear after hearing something like that. It would be a good preemptive move on the part of the Egyptian military as well. A simple move like that could prevent a good many problems from arising in the future.
Yep, and believe me, they want NO PROBLEMS that could end up causing a very, very concerned neighbor to hand over to the Egyptians their rear ends.
