The president must dream of controlling the public in such a way—and oh, how he’s tried, cracking down on civil society and banning protests. &nbsp;But criticism of Mr Sisi has grown louder of late, culminating in a burst of outrage over his decision to cede two uninhabited islands in the Red Sea, called Sanafir and Tiran, to Saudi Arabia. &nbsp;As pressure has mounted, Mr Sisi has looked unsteady. The once-beloved former general appears shocked and angered by the public’s lack of obedience. Take the islands, which Mr Sisi claims to be returning to their rightful owner. &nbsp;He is probably right: Saudi Arabia transferred them to Egypt in 1950 for fear that Israel might grab them. But few Egyptians know that. And their return, after months of secret talks, was announced while the Saudi king was in Cairo approving billions of dollars worth of investments in Egypt. &nbsp;So many saw it as a dodgy swap of land for cash, and therefore as an affront to Egyptian national pride.
