Trump’s call for Egypt and Jordan to open their doors to the Palestinians was met with pro-forma rejection. But he has reason to anticipate that a deal can be reached after sixteen months of the Arab regimes backing Israel’s genocidal assault and ever-deepening collusion with the Netanyahu government in policing the Palestinians and suppressing domestic opposition.
Erdogan and al-Sisi are taking steps to strengthen their ties amid Israel’s US-NATO-backed genocide in Gaza, which is spreading to the West Bank, and preparations for war against Iran.
It was clear that the top echelons of President Abdel Fattah’s al-Sisi’s brutal dictatorship were involved in a state abduction and murder. But the imperialist powers, including Britain where Regeni was studying, largely remained silent on his death.

Crocker is in a position to know. Beginning his diplomatic career with a posting in the US consulate in the inland port city of Khorramshahr, near Iran’s oilfields, in 1972 during the Shah’s reign, he later served in Lebanon, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and Kuwait.
While the imperialist powers and their Arab stooge regimes in the region support Israel's genocide against the Palestinians, resistance is growing among the working class.
A US-backed Israeli assault on the defenseless refugee camps in Rafah would cause catastrophic new Palestinian casualties, and risk war with Egypt and other regional powers.

Federal prosecutors have brought a superseding indictment against Senator Robert Menendez, Democrat from New Jersey, charging him with acting as an unregistered agent of the brutal regime of El-Sisi in Egypt between 2018 and 2022.
The indictment of Senator Robert Menendez, his wife Nadine and three New Jersey businessmen with connections to the Egyptian government on bribery charges has exposed the depths of corruption existing within the political establishment.
This week marks the tenth anniversary of the military coup in Egypt. On July 3, 2013, the then-military chief General Abdel Fatah al-Sisi took power with the support of the imperialist powers and established one of the most brutal and bloodiest regimes in the entire globe.
General Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, who overthrew the elected government of Muslim Brotherhood affiliated President Mohammed Morsi in a bloody coup in July 2013, has ruled the country with an iron fist ever since.
Netanyahu has refused to cancel a march of right-wing Israeli nationalists through the Muslim Quarter of Jerusalem’s Old City, one of Islamic Jihad’s conditions for a ceasefire.
As Egypt’s debt has risen, government's expenditure has gone on debt servicing rather than health, education and welfare.
