The Turks chased out the Russians, and are also pitted against Libyans. Egypt's main problem for years has been jihadist activity supported from outside the country. Since the head of the Iranian worldwide terror got capped (thank you, President Trump), **** in the Sinai and Egypt proper has settled down some. And al-Sisi doesn't get intimidated worth a damn.

Good thing Libya's become a problem, then. Egypt's not tried a war in a non-contiguous area since Nasser sent troops to Yemen about 60 years ago.

Any attack on the dam would open up a big can of worms in the Horn. :^)
