We didn't rebuild their cultures they were able to adapt quickly because they had a culture of education in place.

Experience in education, inn learning, allows people to learn quickly and adapt quickly.

The Jews have survived 1,000 years of racism by being the intellectual warriors of the world.

E.g. if you removed all the people from any southern state and replaced them with Jews, South Koreans or Japanese they would turn that state into a world leader in a few years by the power of their education.

I see you conveniently left out the overwhelming fact that the United States rebuilt Germany and Japan. We didn't occupy their land....we rebuilt it.

I'm sure it was just a simple oversight by you.
