...as was this. You should expend your energy finding common ground instead of a childish 'who's better'.
I look at this list and can only come to one conclusion... Native Americans, Africans, Pacific Islanders, New Zealanders, and a bunch of other people on this planet are stupid and need to put more emphasis on standard education.
Was the point of this thread to convince Muslims to get more education and stop blaming the Jews? If so, you couldn't have been more counterproductive.
I loath to even go down this road, but when pressed the Jews killed 91 people in terrorist bombing of the King David Hotel in 1946 in an attempted to get the British out of Palestine in order to clear the way for the creation of Israel. When pushed anyone will push back. Stop with the I'm better than you.
how about this: if youre going to post a very controversial thread in the DEBATE and DISCUSSION forum, you should learn to do both. but at least we know we're dealing with an amateur.
if only i could be worthy of higher than amateur status on clutchfans my life would be complete almost forgot the....
“Would you like something to read?” “Do you have anything light?” “How about this leaflet, ‘Famous Jewish Sports Legends?’”
alright gwayne -- it's my time to school you. Germany, since the inception of the Nobel Prize, has been an educational powerhouse. The United States, since the inception of the Nobel Prize, has been an educational powerhouse. Western Universities have florished for numerous reasons, the largest being economic prosperity. Do you know how the Muslim world has been doing economically since the inception of the Nobel Prize? No where near the levels necessary to facilitate academic success. Does this mean Muslims shun science and Europeans embrace science. Absolutely not. Without Islam, we would not be having this conversation right now. I like this quip -- The Jews don't have the economic strength of petroleum, nor the possibilities to force the world's media to see "their side" of the question. Are you not aware there is so much old money sitting in Jewish families that they were able to arm the militias in Israel to expel the Arabs from Palestine? Are you not aware the biggest brands in the world are Jewish owned? Or the fact one of the largest media outlets in the world, CNN, was purchased by a Jewish company? Jews are no more special than any other people on Earth. They are not more intelligent and cunning, successful nor powerful than any other group. More importantly, do not try to belittle Muslims to make Jews look good. It's asinine and uncalled for.
If you aren't interested in trying to debate and discuss then why are you here? If you are going to deride people's attempts to encourage debate and discussion, then you might want to rethink your reasons for posting. rimrocker already showed the flaw with what you posted, and you never responded.
By the way, someone told me Israel has enjoyed the backing of the world's economic and military superpower.
Yeah, I should have known better than to respond to a thread containing the Jewish equilvalent to a KKK pamplet.
If you're trying to make some point about the inherent superiority of Jews to Muslims, you've failed miserably. The furthest date on your list is 1910, coincidentally around the same time Zionism was born and the Ottoman Empire began to crumble. The "Muslim World" has been in shambles since then and in a permanent struggle against colonialism. If this list was sincere, it would extend further back to show the contributions of Muslims like Averroes and Avicenna in the fields of science, medicine, philosophy, and mathematics.
Last week Japanese scientists ex-placed...placed explosive detonators at the bottom of Lake Lochness to blow Nessie out of the water. Sir Cord Godfried of the Nessie Alliance summoned the help of Scotland's local wizards to cast a protective spell over the lake and its local residents. And all those who seek for the peaceful existence of our underwater ally.

For those of you who think mrdave is a gwayneco alias.... I can assure you...gwayneco could never pose as a Titans or UT fan. He hates em almost as much as I do.
An excellent point. Not only is this list unfair to Muslims, this list makes it look like the Romans and Greeks were a bunch of schmucks because they didn't win any stinkin Nobel Prizes.
Heh... a response was fine, but avoiding one that appears to target all Jews would have been better, no?
