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

Has
enriched the whole humanity:

needle.

Over the
past 105 years, 14 million Jews have won 15-dozen Nobel

Prizes
have been
won by 1.4 billion Muslims
(other than Peace Prizes).

flew over the Cuckoo's Nest),

Fairbanks (The Thief of Baghdad ) and Ivan Reitman

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!!!!!
