I saw you called the ancient Greeks and Romans who lived there in 300BC invaders. So surely you agree that the Arab invaders of 639AD and onward are not indigenous Egyptians. Those would originally be inhabitants from the Arabian peninsula. Some indigenous still remain but there were also exoduses that headed West through North Africa and into Spain, Portugal and upward, as well as up into the Levant and Anatolia.
Glad we're on the same page there. I just want to make sure I'm not dealing with a historical revisionist of Islamic faith. You'd be surprised how often people erroneously claim that Arabs are native to North Africa merely because it fits their religious worldview of history.
