It's common knowledge among people living in Arab countries that most Muslim countries' presidents are a sockpuppet from either the US or Russia. The exceptions are so few they can be counted on one hand. Mohamed Morsi was widely mourned in my not-even-Arab Muslim country when he died 5 years ago, as one of the few democratically elected presidents in the Islamic world. He was overthrown by the 2013 military coup d'état[1]. Currently, the dictator Sisi rules over Egypt, who is not opening the border for Palestinians. US does this regularly. See the US involvement in regime changes around the world[2].
