Five times, against all odds, the Jews beat the heavily favored Arabs. Not successful? I am busy right now, but I will followup this post with several posts to you describing the many accomplishments by Jews, both inside and outside of Israel, in the fields of the Arts and Sciences. For a tiny race of people, Jewish achievement is stunning! Here is a little preview of the great news about Jews that is about to come to a theater playing near you. <g> yahoodi.com "The Jewish People represent just one fifth of one percent (that's 1/500) of the human race. They are but one of many small groups of people with their own culture, language and homeland. One would expect that they should hardly be heard of - except perhaps a brief mention in a small multi-cultural footnote of a high school geography book. This is obviously far from the case. Jews are at the center of every creative, scientific, cultural, political, ideological movement and endeavor. Jews are over-represented as Nobel Prize recipients, winning at least 20% (that's 1/5) of all awards given to date. Jews founded Hollywood, and are today the dominant cultural influence in television, radio, cinema, journalism and theater in America and elsewhere. Jews are over-represented in all forms of medicine, in all the professions, in every sport, in modeling and fashion, in law-enforcement and the military, in political sex scandals, in new-age religion... In almost everything that represents the free world and all of its trappings, Jews are there."
