Jews sued for 'stealing' gold in Exodus

No, no, no. That's not how it works at all. Since Rome sacked Israel in 70 AD they obviously made off with all the gold. Then the barbarians sacked Rome a couple of hundred years later and Whoosh!! all the gold went north into what is now Germany, France and England. Of course, France consolidated all that gold, then England took it from France and promptly invested it in North America. Therefore, the debt is really owed not by the jews, but by the peoples of North America.

Then, considering the current leadership of the USA, it becomes plain that

This whole mess is Bush's fault and he should be made to pay the Egyptians himself!

"The best" archaelogical findings are inconclusive regarding Hebrews even being in Egypt during the time of the biblical Exodus. What is their evidence? The Bible? If so, then they will see that the Egyptians clearly had it coming.

Maybe the Jews should sue the Egyptians for reparations for enslaving their ancestors. If they hadn't been enslaved (and otherwise mistreated), they wouldn't have had to make the exodus in the first place.

This claim has about as much merit as the claims for slavery reparations.

Actually, this was reperations TO the slaves by the Egyptians (and not the modern Egyptians, but by the Copts). It was reparations for the centuries of slavery, and for the murders of the male children of the slaves (remember, that was what caused Moses' mother to place him as an infant in a basket in the Nile).

Case dismissed.

No, the Arabs are nutso.

[Salman]

Considering that modern Egyptians are descended from Arabs who conquered Egypt in the seventh century (and which at the time was Christian)...

[Bon mots]

Well great! Now we can put Muhammed on trial for child rape and mass murder. This happened centuries after the Jews allegedly stole the alleged gold.

Muhammed raped young A'isha when she was just 9 years old, the filthy old pedophile was already about 50 at the time.

He also beheaded 900 Jews one day when he was in a typical crotchety mood. I don't even know what the sum total of his victims were.

So let's put the old pedophile, rapist and murderer on trial too!

..Arabs are nutso,

that's it in a nutshell, they need to sit down & shut up like the nasty, batty & bratty little children that thay are.

This may sound too simplistic to the over intellectual, spiritually superior amoung us, but it's the truth, nonetheless.

I think this case was settled about 2,500 years ago by Alexander the Great IIRC.

Besides Egypt looted Jerusalem in the time of Rehoboam.

25 In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem. 26 He carried off the treasures of the temple of the LORD and the treasures of the royal palace. He took everything, including all the gold shields Solomon had made.

I Kings 14:25-26

I liked Jonah Goldberg's suggestion that the Jews countersue for unpaid wages.
