The Egyptian Water Crisis
June 26, 2025
Egypt tried to stop the Ethiopian dam with a coalition. It failed. Now, as Egypt predicted and the dam is completed, desertification has increased rapidly across Egypt. Water shortages are severe. People are dying left and right from thirst.
In this climate, Egypt the chaos and strife has resulted in a breakdown of society. Egypt faces civil war. Spared from the Arab Spring in 2012, and the coups committed by the military in 2013 was relatively bloodless, Egypt has not faced a major war since its wars against Israel.
Now that changes.
First, the Arab Republic of Egypt, led by Abdel al-Sisi. Sisi is not perfect, but he is the Western-backed, internationally recognized government of Egypt. He is better than the alternatives, at least for the West.
Second, the Muslim Brotherhood (MB), led by Mahmoud Hussein. The MB was elected into power in 2012 and led at that time by Mohamed Morsi. The military committed a coup against him as many feared Morsi and the MB had committed an Islamist coup of Egypt. Now the Brotherhood is back.
Third, Wilayah Sina, led by Mahmood el-Majeed. This faction is a Salafist faction that has been active in numerous terrorist attacks primarily in the Sinai region of Egypt since 2011. It is a branch of ISIS, and it carries with it the same ideology and principles.
