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?
Question:
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 worldstands 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 exports 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.
Why are Muslims powerless? Because we aren't diffusing knowledge.
Why are Muslims powerless? 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.
============================================================================================So, why are Muslims so powerless?
Answer: Lack of education… This answer is probably not so true. So far I think lack of IMAN is the basic reason why Muslims are powerless.

IBU:
Agree. All Muslim should have total submisssion to Allah SWT.

Pak uda:
The answer given by the doctor was right, IMAN...
Lebih kurang Allah SWT bagi tau ilmu manusia tak lebih
dari air yg melekat di jari dari air lautan yg luas...
Allah jugak ajak manusia pikiag tentang kaum2 Allah
SWT musnahkan sebelum umat Baginda SAW... Bukan kaum2
tu tak pandai...
A very short but meaningful replied made in your
latest fwded email... Penyakit IMAN lemah...
Wallahu'alam...

MaWaisZ: Education is important, because the one that makes it different from others are if it's educated or not. We may say the problem is Iman, but iman has many fractions, I say that we lack in terms of "United in Iman"! There are so many muslims in the world, but their way of thinking is not the same, but if they put their first pirority Quran&sunnah, they'll never get lost.
