Compared to other outcomes of the Arab Spring, Egypt looks pretty good. They didn’t get a true democracy but at least the state is functional.
Goalposts are getting tatty from being moved about so much.
Suez crisis too

Suez crisis ended with a tactical defeat of Egypt but a strategic victory over UK and France because both the URSS and the US told us to get home, so I don't think it's a very apt example.
