#1 Further proof that the Arab world is simply an insane asylum.

#2 Hey, don't laugh, it's given me an idea. You see I had an ex-wife that plundered my "historical" resourses every payday.

#6 Details of the Egyptian suit filed
in Switzerland against the Jews were revealed today:

"If we assume," Dr. Nabil Hilmi, dean of the faculty of law at the
University of Al-Zaqaziq replied, "that the weight of what was stolen was
one ton, its worth doubled every 20 years, even if the annual interest is only
5 percent. In one ton of gold is 700 kilograms of pure gold â ' and we must
remember that what was stolen was jewelry, that is, alloyed with copper.
Hence, after 1,000 years, it would be worth 1,125,898,240 million tons, which
equals 1,125,898 billion tons for 1,000 years. In other words, 1,125 trillion
tons of gold, that is, a million multiplied by a million tons of gold. This is
for one stolen ton. The stolen gold is estimated at 300 tons, and it was not
stolen for 1,000 years, but for 5,758, by the Jewish reckoning. Therefore the
debt is very large."

It may not be large enough to offset the claim for 430 years of forced labor by
the 600,000 Jews they are confirming with this suit they enslaved. In addition
the courts may doubt the notion that the freed slaves did indeed steal anything
as that remains unproven.

Labor rates in Egypt 6000 years ago were about of 1 ounce of gold per year...
multiplied by the man/years worked that comes out to 8,100 tons of gold... when
you deduct the 300 owed at the time of the liberation that still leaves a debt
of 7,800 tons ( or about 27 times the Egyptian claim ) multiplied by 5,748 years
of interest ( at 6% ) and corrected for the interest due the 430 years enslaved
comes to about...

223,979,434,901,742,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,-

000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,-

000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,

000,000,000,000,000
tons of gold the Egyptians owe the Jews.

But to help the Egyptians who apparently have difficulty counting that high...
"the debt is very large"

...though I'm sure "the debt can be rescheduled over 1,000 years, with the
addition of the cumulative interest during that period."

#7 They can't do interest. I think that Prophet guy calls it usury. Plus you have to be able to do math above fingers and toes, so that's strike two. And fuck them makes strike three.

#8 Ever wonder why "Slav" and "slave" have the same root?
As a person of Slav origin, pretty much everybody owes me money.
The Turks, the Avars(Chechens) Mongols, Germans , anybody that supported Communism
the Egyptians (well the decendants of the Mameluke sultans anyway.) as well as the descendants of the rulers of El-Andalus.

SHOW...ME...THE...MONEY!!!!

#9 Himli must have been reading about the Reperations Movement here and thought it was a good idea.

#10 *random ramble*
Not sure if the 430 years figure is accurate - if I remember correctly Jews originally came voluntarily to Egypt, invited by Joseph and his family, and it was only halfway through that the Egyptian dynasty changed and Jews were enslaved by the new rulers. So, probably 200 years or something? Or less.

I think some people called the "Hyksos" were also involved according to this theory. Hyksos were invaders of Egypt -- if the Hebrews (also foreigners) had thrived under the Hyksos rule, then the new native Egyptian dynasty (after the uprising that overthrew the Hyksos) would have probably despised them alongside their former masters.

For this theory to hold, btw, the Exodus would need to have occured not during Ramses II's reign (as generally seen in films, without biblical support however) but a whole dynasty earlier.

#11 Perhaps the Egyptian can ask recompensation for the death of the firstborn instead?

God needs a lawyer. ^_^

#16 I think this is just a cunning plan to remind the world that the Arabs "introduced" the zero (actually the Maya and the Hindu used it way before).
Now multiply zero brain by zero brain...
