Dr. Nabil Hilmi, Dean of the Faculty of Law at the University of Al-Zaqaziq in Egypt, is preparing a lawsuit against "all the Jews of the world" in order to recover the gold, jewelry, cooking utensils, silver ornaments, clothing and other items stolen from Egyptian homes when the Jews were driven out of Egypt by the Pharaoh of Biblical times. Since the Jews admit the crime, and in fact celebrate it in their holy books, Hilmi thinks the reparations case is a slam dunk. He suggests rescheduling the debt over a thousand years, with cumulative interest, but he'll settle for the Jews dropping their own reparations lawsuits, which he says are frivolous. A billion shekels is not what it used to be.
