The Knife And The Single Hair

explores the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt and the straits of one member, Sheikh Fadl al-Mawla, convicted of murder and sentenced to death, in AL Monitor. The last paragraph caught my eye:

Although it remains to be seen if the regime will weigh in publicly on the execution, there are Brotherhood activists who believe the regime could threaten to implement the ruling at any time, sending a political message to the group whenever it might consider supporting any presidential candidate running against Sisi.

They do not play nicely in Egypt. Some friends of ours took a tour of Egypt and said they found it too frightening to want to return.
