If you read the artical you will note that these cities are no where near as old as the time of the exodus.
They are also nowhere near the Sinai desert, which is a completely different type of desert from the Sahara.
The Sahara is covered in sand dunes, which shift and bury things, as well as sand-blasting everything in the desert whenever a strong wind blows.
The Sinai is not sandy at all. It's hard packed dirt and rocks, with a very thin scattering of plants in the wadis, which are narrow gorges carved in the dirt and stone by occasional flash-floods. Archaeologists have discerned evidence of temporary Bedouin camps in the Sinai that are thousands of years old. These are relatively small camps, but they left a mark on the desert floor that was visible from space thousands of years later.
Yet absolutely zero trace has been found of a group of millions of people (along with their livestock) who supposedly spent 40 years wandering through the Sinai.
Ooops, wrong link.

You would think that you would have googled Alexander the great and the Sinia desert before you posted your conclusion.
So again the question still stands where are all the 'earmarks' you called for of the exodus in the sinia, for Alexander, Neoplean, Ramseys ect?
