He recounted that during a trip to Jerusalem he had visited Yad Vashem and the "Israel" Museum - stressing that he had reservations about the name - and said: "I was surprised to find an entire kingdom of our Egyptian archaeological objects, which are held by the Zionists and put on display at the 'Israel' Museum." El Shammaa was interviewed by Nagwa Younis and the show aired on March 15.
