Marxist ßastard Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 CAIRO (Reuters) - An Egyptian lawyer said Wednesday he was planning to sue the world's Jews for "plundering" gold during the Exodus from Pharaonic Egypt thousands of years ago, based on information in the Bible. Full Article... The Middle East Times coverage on the proposal of the suit is as follows: A dean at Egypt's University of Al Zaqaziq is preparing a lawsuit against "all the Jews of the world," accusing them of stealing gold during the exodus. According to reports in Al Ahram Al Arabi, the university's dean of law, Nabil Hilmi, said the Jews during the exodus "stole from the Pharaonic Egyptians gold, jewelry, cooking utensils, silver ornaments, clothing and more..." Asked why cooking utensils might have been taken, Hilmi said "... this had been the Jews' twisted way throughout history; they seek to cause a minor problem connected with the needs of everyday life so as to occupy people with these matters and prevent them from pursuing them to get back the stolen gold..." Hilmi said the "debt" could be rescheduled over 1,000 years, with the addition of the cumulative interest during that period. Twisted, indeed. Just as the Roman Empire seized belts from civilians in their taking of modern-day England to ensure that there will be no riot on account of the English not being able to keep their pants on, the Jewish ruthlessly plundered Egyptian cooking utensils so that the ancient Egyptian military, wary of taking retaliation on on the Jews without first eating breakfast, couldn't pursue them. No word yet on the proposed lawsuit from the British government seeking their stolen belts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marxist ßastard Posted September 13, 2003 Author Share Posted September 13, 2003 Well, I took it upon myself to research this further (armed with the Google search "Sue Jews") and found a slightly biased website that explains the faults of the lawsuit. It turns out the actual text referenced to depicts those damned Jews constructing a giant golem called the Tabernacle (:ph34r: -- Tiber Septim would be proud!) and politely asking the Egyptians for their goods.
