The problem is NOT the Israeli stamp. Sudan is one of the few places where if they find any evidence that you have been to Israel (eg. a pack of chewing gum with Hebrew inscription...) they may refuse you entry. An Egyptian entry stamp in Taba is a clear give-away, but also Nuweiba will raise suspicions because these days it is unlikely that anyone came through from EU via Syria or Iraq...
This being said, my understanding is that this is being more strictly looked at at Khartoum airport, Wadi Halfa is more relaxed...
As for removing a page from a passport, maybe not a good idea... The pages are numbered for a reason, and any missing will render the passport invalid. Mine is pretty heavily used, and a crack started developing along the hinge of the plastic photo and details page. Even though the page was still solidly attached I started having problems in places (though admittedly, not in Sudan, but in the fine land the name of which I dare not utter here for fear of not being allowed into Sudan the next time...).
