Roberts 1993 - Phillip Sharp 1994 - Alfred Gilman 1995 - Edward B . Lewis TOTAL: ONE HUNDRED & TWENTY NINE ! 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 . 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' -Benjamin Netanyahu |

| 737375 | 2009-01-16 04:11:00 | I fail to see how a list of Jewish Nobel prize winners contributes towards a discussion on the Gaza/Israel conflict, but if we are going to do that, then what about a list of Jewish composers/song writers? Where would we be today without all the popular music that came out the US in the 20s/30s????????? :) Irving Berlin, the Gershwins, etc * Harold Arlen * Burt Bacharach * Lionel Bart * Alan and Marilyn Bergman * Irving Berlin * Leonard Bernstein * Don Black * Jerry Bock * Sammy Cahn * Eric Carmen * Leonard Cohen * Cy Coleman * Betty Comden * Hal David * Neil Diamond * Howard Dietz * Ervin Drake * Al Dubin * Isaak Dunaevsky * Bob Dylan * Fred Ebb * Ray Evans * Sammy Fain * Dorothy Fields * Charles Fox * George and Ira Gershwin * Norman Gimbel * Adolph Green * Johnny Green * Marvin Hamlisch * Oscar Hammerstein II 7 * E.

| 737376 | 2009-01-16 04:19:00 | I am very disappointed with the slack response from the Arab countries but they are scared of Hamas type organizations springing up in their corrupt counties. Hamas might be bad arses but one thing they are not is corrupt which is scary to any Arab govt or royalty. The minimum I would have expected is 1. Saudi, Iran and Iraq cut of oil to USA 2. Egypt, Turkey and Jordan expel all Israeli diplomats. 3. Lebanon Hezbolla and Lebanese army to attack from North. 4. Egypt to open their border with Gaza 5. Egypt to cancel natural gas supply contract 6. Iran allow volunteers to go to Gaza via Egypt and fight the Israelis Until the Arabs get their s*** together the Gazians are doomed, The Shiite Sunni split is as big as the Jew Arab split. Sorry Gazians you are doomed I think there are more Western countries and people who feel sorry for you than Middle Eastern ones. |

That's very good Terry, you go right ahead and make a list of great Jewish Composers and don't forget to include the Muslims . ;) (Probably not originally included because of the Nobel Prize aspect) . :D However, I think the real message is in the last paragraph . ;) |

I shouldn't worry your brain too much Cic trying to figure things out, invoking god won't help.......I'm all for balance.......... :) But, at the same time the vast contribution to society in the sciences, arts and fields of entertainment by peoples of Jewish ancestory/religion cannot be denied. The world would be a much poorer place without all those greats and giants of science and music. Edit: I dont know of any popular music from the 20s/30s written by Arabs. All that eastern type "music" is all out of tune. |
