The Jews are not promoting brain washing the children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non Muslims!
The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics or blow themselves up in German restaurants. There is not a single Jew that has destroyed a church. There is not a single Jew that protests by killing people.
The Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.
Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.
Muslims must ask "what can they do for humankind" before they demand that humankind respects them!!
Regardless of your feelings about the crisis between Israel and the Palestinians and Arab neighbors, even if you believe there is more culpability on Israel 's part, the following two sentences really say it all:
"If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel" - BB. (Benjamin Netanyahu)
Good points, but there are a lot more peace loving Muslims than there are extremists, so they can't all be painted with a broad brush. And I don't think a Nobel prize tally is indicative of superiority or worthiness over any other religion.
I also think the peace prize is the only relevant Nobel prize when comparing the two for his intended purpose, and apparently there have been Muslim winners of it, contrary to what the author of this article states. And he has Yasser Araf'at listed. Wasn't he a Palestinian Muslim?
The peace prize is the most well known of the Nobel prizes, and I think the author here is trying to accredit all of the winners as peace related. Still, the Jewish list is impressive and something to take pride in.
