WRITTEN BY A
MUSLIM.
The writer is the
Pakistani Executive Director of the Center for Research and Security
Studies, a think tank established in 2007, and an Islamabad-based
freelance columnist. It sure makes interesting
reading... Particularly coming from a Pakistani
official.

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, 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.
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.
Aaron Beck
founded Cognitive
Therapy.
Gregory Pincus developed the
first oral contraceptive
pill.
George Wald won a
Nobel for our
understanding of the human eye.
Stanley Cohen won a
Nobel in
embryology.
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.

first nuclear chain
reactor;
Peter Schultz, optical fibre cable;
Charles Adler, traffic lights;
Benno Strauss, Stainless steel;

videotape
recorder.
Famous financiers in the
business world who belong to Jewish faith include

Jeans),

,
Sergey Brin
(Google),
Michael Dell (Dell
Computers),
Larry Ellison
(Oracle),
Donna Karan
(DKNY),
Irv Robbins (Baskins &

Yale University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger (American secretary of

Grunwald (editor-in-chief Time),
Katherine Graham (publisher of The Washington Post), Joseph Lelyveld
(Executive editor, The New York Times), and Max Frankel (New York

The most beneficent
philanthropist in the history of the world 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 and Krayzelburg are
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,

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 andHutch), Milos Forman (One flew over the
Cuckoo's Nest),
Douglas Fairbanks (The Thief
of Baghdad ) and Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) are all Jewish.
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 collectively 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!!!!!
