Why  are Jews so powerful?
There  are only 14 million Jews in the world; seven million in  the Americas , five million in Asia, two million in Europe  and 100,000 in Africa . For every single Jew in the world  there are 100 Muslims.
Yet, Jews are more than a  hundred times more powerful than all the Muslims put  together.
Ever wondered why?
Jesus of  Nazareth was Jewish.
Albert Einstein, the most influential  scientist of all time and TIME magazine's 'Person of the  Century', was a Jew.
Sigmund Freud -- id, ego, superego --  the father of  psychoanalysis was a Jew.
So were Karl  Marx, Paul Samuelson and Milton  Friedman.
Here are a few other Jews whose  intellectual output has enriched the whole  humanity:
Benjamin  Rubin gave humanity the vaccinating needle.
Jonas Salk  developed the first polio vaccine.
Albert Sabin  developed the improved live polio vaccine.
Gertrude  Elion gave us a leukemia fighting drug.
Baruch Blumberg  developed the vaccination for Hepatitis B.
Paul Ehrlich  discovered a treatment for syphilis (a sexually  transmitted disease).
Elie Metchnikoff won a Nobel &! nbsp;Prize in infectious diseases.
Bernard Katz won a Nobel  Prize in neuromuscular transmission.
Andrew Schally won  a Nobel in endocrinology (disorders of the endocrine  system; diabetes, hyperthyroidism) .
Aaron Beck founded  Cognitive Therapy (psychotherapy to treat mental  disorders, depression and  phobias).
Gregory  Pincus developed the first oral contraceptive  pill.
George Wald won a Nobel for furthering our  understanding of the human eye.
Stanley Cohen won a  Nobel in embryology (study of embryos and their  development) .                 
Willem  Kolff came up with the kidney dialysis  machine.
Over the past 105 years, 14 million  Jews have won 15-dozen Nobel Prizes while only three Nobel  Prizes have been won by 1.4 billion Muslims (other than  Peace Prizes).
Why are Jews so powerful?
Stanley  Mezor invented the first micro-processing chip.
Leo  Szilard developed the first nuclear chain reactor;
Peter  Schultz, optical fibre cable;
Charles Adler, traffic  lights;
Benno Strauss, Stainless steel; 
Isador  Kisee, sound movies;
Emile Berliner, telephone microphone; 
Charles Ginsburg, videotape recorder.  
Famous  financiers in the business world who  belong to  Jewish faith include
Ralph Lauren (Polo),
Levis Strauss  (Levi's Jeans),
Howard Schultz (Starbuck's) ,
Sergey Brin  (Google),
Michael Dell (Dell Computers),
Larry Ellison  (Oracle),
Donna Karan (DKNY),
Irv Robbins (Baskins &  Robbins) and 
Bill Rosenberg (Dunkin  Donuts).
Richard Levin, President of Yal! e  University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger (American  secretary of  state), Alan Greenspan (Fed chairman  under Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush), Joseph Lieberman (US Senator),  Madeleine Albright (American secretary of state), Casper  Weinberger (American secretary of defense), Maxim Litvinov  ( USSR foreign Minister), David Marshal ( Singapore 's  first chief minister), Issac Isaacs (governor-general of  Australia ), Benjamin Disraeli (British statesman and  author), Yevgeny Primakov (Russian PM), Barry Goldwater (US Senator),  Jorge Sampaio (president of Portugal ), John Deutsch (CIA  director), Herb Gray (Canadian deputy PM), Pierre Mendes  (French PM), Michael Howard (British home secretary),  Bruno Kreisky (chancellor of Austria ) and Robert Rubin  (American secretary of treasury).
In the  media, famous Jews include Wolf Blitzer (CNN), Barbara  Walters (ABC News), Eugene Meyer  (Washington Post),  Henry Grunwald (editor-in-chief Time), Katherine Graham  (publisher of The Washington Post), Joseph Lelyyeld  (Executive editor, The New York Times), and Max Frankel  (New York Times).
Can you name the most  beneficent philanthropist in the history of the world?
The  name is George Soros, a Jew, who has so far donated a  colossal $4 billion most of which has gone as aid to  scientists and universities around the world.
Second to  George Soros is Walter Annenberg, another Jew, who has  built a hundred libraries by donating an estimated $2  billion.
At  the Olympics, Mark Spitz set a record of sorts by winning  seven gold medals.
Lenny Krayzelburg is a three-time  Olympic gold medalist.
Spitz, Krayzelburg and Boris Becker (Tennis)  are all Jewish.
Did you know that Harrison  Ford, George Burns, Tony Curtis, Charles Bronson, Sandra  Bullock, Bil! ly  Crystal, Woody Allen, Paul Newman,  Peter Sellers, Dustin Hoffman, Michael Douglas, Ben  Kingsley, Kirk Douglas, Goldie Hawn, Cary Grant, William  Shatner, Jerry Lewis and Peter Falk are all  Jewish?
As a matter of fact, Hollywood itself  was founded by a Jew. Among directors and producers,  Steven Spielberg, Mel Brooks, Oliver Stone, Aaron Spelling  ( Beverly Hills 90210), Neil Simon (The Odd Couple),  Andrew Vaina (Rambo 1/2/3), Michael Man (Starsky and  Hutch), Milos Forman (One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest),  Douglas Fairbanks (The thief of Baghdad ) and Ivan Reitman  (Ghostbusters) are all Jewish.
To be certain,  Washington DC is the capital that matters and in Washington DC,  the lobby that matters is The American Israel Public  Affairs Committee, or AIPAC.
Washington knows that if  Israeli  PM  Ehud Olmert were to discover " that the earth is flat ",  AIPAC  will make the US 109th Congress pass a resolution  congratulating Olmert on his " discovery ".
William James Sidis, with an IQ of  250-300, is the brightest human who ever existed. Guess  what faith did he belong to?

So, why are Jews so  powerful?
Answer:  Education.


Why are Muslims so  powerless?

There are an  estimated 1,476,233,470 Muslims on the face of the planet:  one billion in Asia, 400 million in Africa, 44 million in  Europe and six million in the Americas .
Every fifth human  being  is a Muslim;
for every single Hindu there are  two Muslims,
for every Buddhist there are two Muslims and 
for every Jew there are one hundred Muslims.
Ever wondered  why Muslims are so powerless?
Here is why:  There are 57 member-countries of the Organisation of  Islamic Conference (OIC), and all of them put together  have around 500 universities; one university for every  three million Muslims.
The United States has 5,758  universities and India has 8,407.
In 2004, Shanghai Jiao  Tong University compiled an 'Academic Ranking of World  Universities' , and intriguingly, not one university from  Muslim-majority states was in the top-500.
As  per data collected by the UNDP, literacy in the Christian  world stands at nearly 90 per cent and 15  Christian-majority states have a literacy rate of 100 per  cent.
A Muslim-majority state, as a sharp contrast, has an  average literacy rate of around 40 per cent and there is  no Muslim-majority state with a literacy rate of 100 per  cent.
Some 98 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian  world had completed primary school, while less than 50 per  cent of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did the same. 
Around 40 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian  world attended university while no more than two per cent  of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did the  same.
Muslim-majority countries have 230  scientists per one million Muslims.
The US has 4,000  scientists per million and Japan has 5,000 per million.
In  the entire Arab world, the total number of full-time  researchers is 35,000 and there are only 50 technicians  per one million Arabs.  (in the Christian world there are up  to 1,000 technicians per one million).
Furthermore, the  Muslim world spends 0.2 per  cent of its GDP on  research and development, while the Christian world spends  around five per cent of its GDP.
Conclusion: The Muslim  world lacks the capacity to produce ! knowledge. 
Daily newspapers per 1,000 people and number of  book titles per million are two indicators of whether  knowledge is being diffused in a society.
In Pakistan ,  there are 23 daily newspapers per 1,000 Pakistanis while  the same ratio in Singapore is 360. In the UK , the number  of book titles per million stands at 2,000 while the same  in Egypt is 20. 
       Conclusion: The Muslim world  is failing to diffuse  knowledge.
Exports  of high technology products as a percentage of total  exports are an important indicator of knowledge  application.
Pakistan 's export of high technology  products as a percentage of total exports stands at one  per cent.
The same for Saudi Arabia is 0.3 per cent; 
Kuwait , Morocco , and Algeria are all at 0.3 per cent, 
while Singapore is at 58 per cent.
    Conclusion:  The Muslim world is failing to  apply knowledge.
Why are Muslims  powerless?
.....Because we aren't producing knowledge, 
.....Because we aren't diffusing knowledge.,
.....Because we  aren't applying knowledge.
And, the future  belongs to knowledge-based  societies.
Interestingly, the combined annual  GDP of 57 OIC-countries is under $2 trillion.
America ,  just by herself, produces goods and services worth $12  trillion;
China $8 trillion,
Japan $3.8 trillion and 
Germany $2.4 trillion (purchasing power parity basis). 
Oil  rich Saudi Arabia , UAE, Kuwait and Qatar collective! ly  produce goods and services (mostly oil) worth $500  billion;
Spain alone produces goods and services worth  over $1 trillion,
Catholic Poland $489 billion and 
Buddhist Thailand $545 billion.

..... ( Muslim GDP as a percentage of world  GDP is fast  declining ).


So,  why are Muslims so powerless?

Answer:  Lack of education.

All we do is  shout to Allah the whole day !!!  and blame everyone else for  our multiple  failures!!!!!
