#1 With the ouster of Mubarak the prisons were emptied and Islamic Jihad and Gamaat al-Islamiya convicts removed to the Sinai. In El Arish and along the Med coast they set up cells which were originally designed to assist HAMAS in Gaza. Hundreds of jihadis, including more radical Muslim Brothers, followed during the Morsy tenure. Thus, Sisi's effort to eliminate this Fifth Column has been slow and has cost many lives. But he is winning.
