No. But it could be regarded in one sense as a deliverance from something akin to genocide, since the Egyptians had ordered the murder of every male child born to Hebrew mothers. Had this been carried out to the letter, it would have eventually over a number of years resulted in the extinction of the male line.

Genocide of the Egyptians was never a possibility. The plagues were only a last resort in order for the nation of Israel to be delivered from the stubborn hand of the pharoah of the day. Even in the last plague, only the first-born was killed.

Who won the rwandan genocide?

The Rwandan genocide was not really a war, since the aim of this genocide and any genocide is to exterminate a certain group of people. In the Rwandan genocide the aim was to kill all the Tutsis. Fortunately not all the Tutsis were killed in this genocide, but hundreds of thousands were and Rwanda still has to bear the scar of what happened during that horrible time to this day, so nobody won the genocide, everybody just lost.
