It came from the mouth of a joker so it must be a joke. Many Jews know their history in Egypt from the Passover Hagadah, where they see clear illustrations of the Hebrews building the pyramids.

Are there really people in the world who think that Jews built the pyramids? They wouldn't know there was no such thing as a Jew, or an Israelite, in the 3rd millennium BCE? That's kind of like saying Texans built the Parthenon. It was meant as just a joke?
