FILE - In this Monday, Sept. 16, 2013 file photo, an Egyptian woman holds a petition form to nominate Defense Minister Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi to run for president while listening to a talk in a campaign at a hotel in Cairo, Egypt. Posters of Defense Minister el-Sissi are taped on the wall. The Arabic on the posters reads, "God bless you, Sissi," and "Army, police and all Egyptians, One arm." Having secured victory in a referendum on a relatively liberal constitution that he championed, insiders say Egypt's military chief is turning his attention to the country’s overwhelming array of problems _ from health and education to government subsidies and investment. The revelations offer the latest indication that Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi is planning a run for president, capping a stunning transformation for the 59-year-old who started in the infantry.
