(what genetic science tells us) -- Article In New Yorker Magazine (Oct 24, 2005) Jews deserve credit for inventing a culture that's less fucked up than others, but they also deserve criticism for allowing that culture to become tools of imperialism and slavery. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80475it is a conspiracy by a cabal within the jewish community against non-jews .. sorry, "gentiles" .. and i suspect that conspiracy involves identifying "gentiles" that are a potentially a threat and brain damaging or murdering them. in america, in europe, just as in iraq. why not, if you are willing to ruthless persue the interests of your race, eliminating the most intelligent of your opposition is obviously the most effective thing you can do. and it can be done in a away that is almost unnoticeable, because the smartest are such a small percentage (we're talking the top 1/10 of one percent or less probably) and because the technology now exists to brain damage a target without leaving a trace. microwave beams. actually, brain implants as well. in the past, possibly poisons? |

(what genetic science tells us) -- Article In New Yorker Magazine (Oct 24, 2005) what is important here is what this BELIEF about their superiority says about the existence of a conspiracy amongst the jewish community read what i said about iraq -- after the american invasion left iraq helpless, hundreds of iraqi scientists were assassinated they weren't assasinated because they were outspoken politically, and they weren't assasinated becayse they studied military related areas of science they were assasinated because they were the best, according to their colleagues. the world did nothing while this slaughter was carried out The jews DID just carry out a conspiracy to kill the smartest iraqis. What do you think the jews are, and have been doing, in Europe, and America? Read what I posted about Gloria Naylor. Did you read my comment that, if you are evil, and willing to ruthlessly promote the interests of your race at any expense ... it's obvious the most effective thing you can do, bar none, over the long term, is to secretly murder the most intelligent members of your opposition? It certainly seems to be happening. Read about Gloria Naylor, and do some research into the oddly bad luck that top non-jewish scientists, mathematicians, and engineers enjoy. |

(what genetic science tells us) -- Article In New Yorker Magazine (Oct 24, 2005) The media is just trying to be provocative reporting on this "study." From the Article: “It’s bad science—not because it’s provocative, but because it’s bad genetics and bad epidemiology,” says Harry Ostrer, head of NYU’s human-genetics program. “I see no positive impact from this,” says Neil Risch, one of the few geneticists who’s dipped his oar into the treacherous waters of race and genetics. “When the guys at the University of Utah said they’d discovered cold fusion, did that have a positive impact?” “I’d actually call the study bullshit,” says Sander Gilman, a historian at Emory University, “if I didn’t feel its idea were so insulting.” Cochran mirthfully bats their complaints away. “I don’t see what the big deal is here,” he says when I reach him at his New Mexico home. “I haven’t actually told people how to make a hydrogen bomb out of baking soda in their garages.” But there’s no question that Cochran and Harpending knew what they were doing. They were advancing a theory with a patina of sexiness and political incorrectness, one that would generate a good deal of discussion. And that it did. Some of that discussion was positive, and some was not, as one might expect. That’s always the problem with theories that exploit stereotypes—they’re titillating, sure, but also handy refuges for the intellectually lazy. The trick is not to harden and grow cold as we turn backward, as sure as Lot’s wife. |

People need to read what you think because they can't believe it, until they hear it from the mouth of those we are taught to regard as above judgement. Israel does have a national I.Q. of 90, as another poster wrote, and Arin David's post helps to make the point. |

It's environment far more than genetics. And there are tons of studies that prove this. |

DOES IT MAKE A CONSPIRACY AMONG THE JEWISH POPULATION MORE LIKELY? IF THEY ACTUALLY DO HAVE HIGHER IQ'S ON AVERAGE, DOES THAT MAKE A CONSPIRACY EVEN MORE DANGEROUS? DO THEY SEEK AN ADVANTAGE BY SECRETLY MURDERING THE MOST INTELLIGENT OF OTHER RACES WHEN THEY ARE ABLE? Read what I wrote about the assassination of Iraqi's best scientists.

(what genetic science tells us) -- Article In New Yorker Magazine (Oct 24, 2005) Interesting book on this subject: Smart Jews: The Construction of the Image of Jewish Superior Intelligence (Abraham Lincoln Lecture Series) by Sander L. Gilman Editorial Review From Publishers Weekly "Psychoanalyst-turned-medical historian Gilman builds on his previous work (The Jew's Body) about historical images of Jews to offer new insights into the vexed question of Jewish "superior" intelligence. Gilman examines a vast array of 19th- and 20th-century materials, from the writings of Francis Galton and Sigmund Freud to the works of playwright Georg Buchner and composer Alban Berg to Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List and Robert Redford's Quiz Show. Whether or not Jews are, in fact, smarter is never an issue; how the image of Jews as smarter has served the psychological and social needs and interests of Jews and Gentiles alike, is. Gilman is consequently less concerned with the validity of race-based intelligence theories than the burdens such claims (made by both Jews and Gentiles) have imposed upon Jews themselves. The average Jew may be smarter than the average Gentile, so the argument runs, but it is an intelligence without creativity, an effeminate, crafty type of intellect with no inherent link to virtue.."
