Egyptian Political Scientist: Jews Must Return the Gold They Stole from Egypt during the Exodus

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.

“We know for a fact that ...”

LOL! Sure you do, moron.

[Viennacon]

I’d probably focus first on the artifacts stolen during colonization before going back over 2000 years!

[exit82]

The Jews didn’t steal that gold. It was given to them by the Egyptians.

Worth repeating for those who do not know the story. The Egyptians WANTED the Jews to go.

When Pharoah changed his mind and sent his army after the Jews, the army was destroyed in the Red(some say Reed) Sea.

Truth be told, The Egyptians probably still owe the Jews for the innumerable hours of slave labor expended to build their empire for them.

So, the Islamic nutjob just needs to sit down and shut up.

[Tonytitan]

Get real, this gold (if any was left) was long gone, stolen by the Assyrians, Babylonians, his Egyptian ancestors as well as the Greeks, Romans and Muslim Empires, and possibly Crusaders..

The Nazis got what was left.

[morphing libertarian]

When the Jews left Egypt someone stole my ancestors blanket. Should be worth $90-100 now. Where do I sign up for reparations?

[terycarl]

well they may have a point there....the Jews were not slaves after all, they were a bunch of migrants who attacked and overpowered one of the most powerful groups on Earth. Instead of just peacefully parting the Red Sea and escaping captivity, they snuck into the Egyptian treasury and made off with tons of gold....they then hauled these golden tons on the backs of 7 miraculous donkeys to Israel where it exists today in a Jewish bank vault.....seems logical to me !!!

When Pharoah changed his mind and sent his army after the Jews, the army was destroyed in the Red(some say Reed) Sea.

I've always wondered how an English transliteration had anything to do with what was written. "Red' and "reed" sound similar, in English. I don't believe the Old Testament was originally recorded in that language.

[Califreak]

LOL!

“Gimme all your Jewgold!”

[garjog]

No, how about the Egyptians pay reparations for the hundreds of years they kept the Jews as slaves?

[CyberAnt]

The Israelites DID NOT STEAL it .. the Egyptians THREW THE GOLD AT THE ISRAELITES, in hopes the curses that had come upon their land would be abated.

[onedoug]

So, he admits the Exodus is true? That would seem sort of dangerous in a society of islamists.

[normbal]

Once again, not as if we needed the evidence, we see and hear proof that muslims are, simply, F*****G NUTS.

Hell, the “ancient” israelites didn’t have the time to let their bread leaven much less time to steal their master’s silver and gold.

But hey, maybe he’s on to something. His theory of “If jews would just pay reparations to those who enslaved them” fixing something, solving something, has ANY merit at all, maybe, just maybe, America’s blacks can give back the tens of trillions of dollars white America has invested in THEIR culture which they’ve pissed away over the decades since slavery was abolished (as a side effect of the war of northern aggression).

Headstart, food stamps, urban renewal/housing, education, my personal (Clintonian racist program) “midnight basketball”, all money wasted if, as many studies have proven time and again, black culture in America is regressive, NOT progressive, forward-thinking, “successful” by any measure of the term.

So yeah, I’ll go with that.

Let’s start with Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Kim Kardashian’s baby daddy. I want THEM to pay ME reparations for what they and their ancestors stole from MY ancestors (119 of whom fought for the Union in the “Civil” War according to my great aunt’s genealogy).

Pay up.

[Sawdring]

If they want that back, imagine what they want from Rome and Constantinople. Egypt was the breadbasket of the Roman Empire.

[EinNYC]

How about the back wages for the over 400 years of Jewish slavery there? Yep, I think the gold about covers it. Eat ___ and die, little fatwad.

[SES1066]

Isn’t it the Gypsies that are not owed the money?

Throwing some fresh inflammably flammable fuel on this fire.

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

Yes. Muslims have become totally insane through 1400 years of cousin intermarriage.

Its sound like the entire issue was previously adjudicated under Macedonean law and the Egyptians lost.

Since we now have a look-back period extending to the time of the Exodus, perhaps Italy can establish a claim for the return of North Africa that was stolen by the Muslims! (The Phonecians no longer exist.) Greeks, for the return of their former Byzantine empire, including Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, and Isreal.

[ought-six]

“These folks are nuts!”

Well, they’re muzz. So, yes.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Dayum.

Thanks DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis, this was posted different times over the years.

IOW, he's probably a 9/11 Truther and Holocaust denier.

There are autochthonous Arab traditions about the wandering tribes led by Mosaikaia, his brother Arnran, and his sister Zeripha. These traditions have not been borrowed from the Old Testament or rabbinical tradition. From the Bible and Midrashim, the Arabs culled much of the content of the Koran, but they did not realize that their traditions about Mosaikaia (and the catastrophe that took place in his time) are of independent origin, though referring to the same persons and events.

The pyramids were already about 1000 years old at the time of Moses.

In Exodus there are references to "the God of the Hebrews" and to "the children of Israel." The term "Jews" is later (originally derived either from the tribe of Judah or the kingdom of Judah). When the kingdom split because Rehoboam refused to reduce taxes, the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin remained loyal to the House of David. Probably there were members of the other tribes who assimilated and became part of the Jewish people (although the Samaritans are the direct descendants of the northern tribes). There are DNA studies that indicate that some modern Jews are descended from the priestly tribe of Levi.

St. Paul, in the first century, was aware of being descended from the tribe of Benjamin.
