BC, you make the mistake of confusing "education" with intelligence. Learning things is something many people can do. Education means "learning things". Google is world champion at learning things. But Google won't be inventing things any time soon or be able to interact with 3D to make things happen such as inventing CDMA and turning it into mobile cyberspace, or inventing the Special Theory of Relativity, or The General Theory of Relativity.

<Those in the ME that are ALLOWED access to the money have done quite well in getting educated. Witness the many many millionaire oil babies getting Harvard(and the like) educations.>

You can give me $1 million and you still won't get the General Theory of Relativity invented. If we give Sarmaniac even $100 million he wouldn't do other than drool and rant. You could perhaps learn to tie your shoe laces.

I have found it very useful to give my money to more intelligent people to invent things and pay me dividends from the profits. I work for them - doing things within my limited skill set, saving money, then funding smart people to do great things.

Palestinians have got a great opportunity to do the same with millions of Jews having moved next door. Palestinians can do like me - perform their limited tasks diligently, save their money and invest in good things. They would do well by simply working and even better if they also invest. Heck, the bright ones could even join in with the inventing. Not all Palestinians are stupid you know.

But with Islamic Jihad ideology, they are doomed to live like forest dwelling chimps, trying to murder adjacent tribes and take the females and spoils of war. They need to ditch the ideology and start doing something useful in a civilized way.
