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.

However, when we Indians gloat about the above figures we too should ponder.
When, we point one finger at anybody, we shoud remember that three fingers point to ourselves.
Ironically, India too has a population of 1.2 billion.
How many nobel lureates do we have?
Like the Arabs, we too can count our Nobel prize winners in one hand, and we too have only seven winners.


Literature
1 1913 Rabindranath Tagore
2 2001 V S Naipaul

Physics
1 1930 C V Raman
2 1983 Dr Subramanium Chandrashekhar

Medicine & Physiology
1 1968 Dr. Hargobind Korana

Peace
1 1979 Mother Teresa

Economics
1 1998 Dr Amartya Sen

Total 7 (Seven)

Out of the above, Mother Teresa was a foreigner,
so that actually leaves us with six.
So what are we grinning for?

At least the poor Arab can blame Israel
We, after 60 years of Independence cannot blame Muhammad of Ghazni, or the Mughals or the British.
Our corrupt politicians and their divisive vote bank politics is totally responsible for our plight.
The sooner India gets rid of them, the better will it be for the nation.
