In a July 8, 2014 interview with Egypt's Channel 1, Egyptian political scientist Ammar Ali Hassan said that the Jews had stolen Egypt's gold and treasures when they left ancient Egypt. The character of Shakespeare's Shylock is "a replica of the Jew who lived in Egypt a merchant and a loan shark," he said, adding: "We demand that they return the treasures they stole from us."
Following are excerpts:
Ammar Ali Hassan: The Jews wanted [Egypt] to pay them compensation to the tune of dozens of billions of dollars, although our economy is very hard off. More importantly, they wanted to establish their false claim to historical rights over Egyptian lands.
We know for a fact that Moses was in this land. Most of the Jews who left Egypt to wander in the Sinai Desert were the Jews who defied Moses and rejected his preachings. When they left, they stole Egypt's gold and treasures.
Many of the studies on Jewish financial conduct in the history of Egypt, as well as in the history of humanity as a whole... Take, for example, the character of Shylock in "The Merchant of Venice," by Shakespeare. This character is a replica of the Jew who lived in Egypt a merchant and a loan shark, who deposits his profits abroad, instead of investing them in the country. This is why the Jews have plundered this country all the time beginning with the theft of Egypt's gold in the days of Moses and culminating in what they did to our economy prior to the 1952 revolution.

[Muslim Brotherhood official] Essam Al-Aryan [offered the Jews compensation], but I say the opposite: We demand that they return the treasures they stole from us, including the interest they denied the Egyptian economy for many decades.

These folks are nuts!
How about he pay the Jews for all the BS Muslims put them through even though Jews were there for 1000s of year before Mohammed was even a gleam in his dog fathers eye?
where in the he|| do they find these people?

This is worthy of “South Park”.
Twas not gold, but bronze polished like the sun. The metal was reclaimed from the shsckles and chains broken to flee the Pharos’s land
It also, does not cover the cost of the slaughtering of all the males by Pharoah. I believe the Egyptians owe much more.
Pay up.
Egyptians must compensate the Hebrews for below minimum wage work expended on the pyramids.
About the same level of proof, relevancy, and documentation.
The Jews didn’t steal that gold. It was given to them by the Egyptians.
I agree
It obviously doesn’t occur to these brainiacs that
the gold would have been of little use in the desert...
Nothing new under the Sun. Here’s an account from a couple of millennia ago...
The Egyptians brought a lawsuit against the Jews before Alexander of Macedon. They said: “Is it not written, And the Lord had disposed the Egyptians favorably toward the people, and they let them have their request; thus they stripped the Egyptians? Return to us the gold and silver you took!”
Thereupon Geviha b. Pesisa said to the Sages, “Give me permission to go and argue against them before Alexander of Macedon. If they defeat me, you will say, ‘You have merely defeated a common man.’ If I defeat them, you will say, ‘The Torah of Moses has defeated you.’”
So the Sages gave permission, and he went and argued against them. He asked them, “Whence do you derive your proof?” They said, “From the Torah.” He said to them, “Then I will bring proof from nothing other than the Torah, for it was written, The sojourning of the Israelites, who dwelled in Egypt, was 430 years. Pay us the wages for the work of 600,000 whom you enslaved for 430 years.
Alexander of Macedon said to [the Egyptians], Answer them!
“Give us three days’ time.”
They sought an answer but did not find one. Immediately they abandoned their planted fields, and their planted vineyards planted. And that was the sabbatical year.
“And the people of Israel did as Moses had instructed; they asked the Egyptians for clothing and articles of silver and gold. The Lord caused the Egyptians to look favorably on the Israelites, and they gave the Israelites whatever they asked for. So they stripped the Egyptians of their wealth!”
—Exodus 12:35-36, NLT
Sounds like Idiot Egyptian Clown needs to take it up with God or the early Egyptians. Also, who the hell demands recompense from an event that took place about 3500 years ago?
Sooooo, the golden calf wasn’t golden maybe?
40 years in the desert? All that loot?
Sounds like a Wayne Newton gig.
They should ask the IRS to investigate
Talk about holding a grudge.
Makes about as much sense as black reparations.
Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson....oh wait.....
