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.
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.
