But that's okay because in the bible there are people God favors and those He does not. Nothing against Egyptians per se, God just doesn't like them. That means fucking with them is permitted; and if it furthers the cause of His very favorite people then fucking up the Egyptians would have been seen as required.

The plagues would have wiped out Egypt, and most of their army. And there were neighbors not too far who would gladly have conquered Egypt in their weakened state. And that's just the plagues. Not to mention the loss of their slave labor in their entirety.
Oh and of course they had enough manpower left to wipe out all evidence of the Hebrews ever being slaves, or any of the plagues actually happening.
Ra is great.
