That might be part of it, but Sisi is a dictator who overthrew a democratically elected leader. That leader had much stronger ties to Palestinians (Muslim Brotherhood). Having 2 million people who support your political opponent is not good for holding on to power.
Not to mention that the US prefers Sisi and pays a considerable amount of money to keep him in power. They aren't going to upset their gravy train.
