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. Alert Sabin developed the improved live
polio vaccine. Gertrude Elion gave us a leukaemia 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 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 and
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 Yale University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger
(American secretary of state), Alan Greenspan (fed chairman under Reagan, Bush,
Clinton and Bush), Joseph Lieberman, Madeleine Albright (American secretary of
state), Casper Weinberger (American secretary of defence), 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, 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 wining seven gold medals.
Lenny Krayzelburg is a three-time Olympic gold medalist. Spitz, Krayzelburg and
Boris Becker are all Jewish.
Did you know that Harrison Ford, George Burns, Tony Curtis, Charles Bronson,
Sandra Bullock, Billy 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 is the capital that matters and in Washington the
lobby that matters is The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC.
Washington knows that if PM Ehud Olmert were to discover that the earth is
flat, AIPAC will make the 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.
