Let's not jump off the cliff on this one. I have read that Israel is in talks with El-Sissi. I think it wise to wait and see what evolves.

Let's not jump off the cliff on this one.One of the first things Morsi said her was going to do after being "elected" was to end the treaty with Israel.
No one is "jumping off of cliffs"

Egyptian Court Throws Out Case Calling to End Peace with Israel
While not exactly friendly, Morsi appeared to be following much the same path as the current government. I'm not seeing a whole lot of difference.
While Morsi has repeatedly said he would continue to maintain the peace with Israel and uphold international documents signed by prior Cairo administrations, he has mostly given Israel the cold shoulder since taking office.
In November, Morsi recalled the Egyptian ambassador to Israel in protest of Israels counterterrorism Operation Pillar of Defense in Gaza.
Last October, Egypt rejected an Israeli request to upgrade the relations between the countries, after the Jewish State expressed interest in expanding the cooperation between the two countries and raising it to a level of ministerial talks between Defense Minister Ehud Barak and his Egyptian counterpart.
At the same time, security cooperation between the countries has continued and reports last week indicated that Egypt will be sending a security delegation to Israel, for the first time since Morsis election.
