[Alouette]

I think this tour is part of Egypt's public relations offensive, made necessary by 9/11 and the Egyptian plan to attack Israel in the next couple of years.

What happened to the lawsuit they brought demanding that Israel pay them for the damages caused by the Ten Plagues?

Heh... I think that lawsuit was for the looting the Israelites did during the Exodus, rather than the actual Plagues. That was a lose-lose situation for the Egyptians anyway, since the official line nowadays is that there was never slavery in Egypt.
