JEWISH HALL OF FAME
The Jewish people gave humanity the concepts of God, liberty and law
18% of Nobel Prizes have gone to Jewish laureates - Nobel e - Museum: "The Nobel Prize is the first international award given yearly since 1901 for achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and peace." - Jews Comprise Only 0.2 to 0.3% of the World's Population
Israel wins two of the top three places of The Wall Street Journal's 2004 Technology Innovation Awards - Israel heads the list of countries with the most promising future.
Jewish success is due to a culture that promotes excellence and is blessed with self-discipline, education, dedication and a drive to leave this world a better place.

Contribution of the Jewish People to Human Development:

Jewish Nobel Prize Winners vs. Arab and Islamic Nobel Prize Winners
If Arab and Iranian dictators want to compete with Jews, let them do it in the realm of
innovation and education, and not by terrorizing and eliminating the opposition.

Jewish Nobel Prize Winners
Jews: 14.1 Million,
0.2% of World's Population

Arab and Islamic Nobel Prize Winners
Arabs and Muslims: 1,200 Million,
19.6% of World's Population

Hitler's Beetle car designed by a Jew (Elan Miller, JP, Sep 13, 2009)

Jewsrock.org is devoted to illuminating the intersection of rock and roll and Jewish culture. Among the hundred-something bios, you’ll find people who could reasonably take credit for the rise of both folk music in the sixties and hip-hop in the eighties. You’ll see at least four who could be held responsible for inventing punk rock, and another three who lay claim to the birth of glam. And you'll count innovators in prog rock, Brit pop, and funk who are all children of Holocaust survivors.

RELIGION HELPS SHAPE WEALTH OF AMERICANS, STUDY FINDS (Lisa Keister, Ohio State University, Sep 16, 2003): "A new national study shows that religious affiliation plays a powerful role in how much wealth Americans accumulate, with Jews amassing the most wealth"

Jews prominent in '[Time magazine's annual] Top 100' list (JP, Apr 11, 2005): "Jews constitute approximately 12% of this year's list, while representing an estimated quarter of a percent of the world's population."

Jews dominate Vanity Fair's list of the world's most powerful people: "More than half its members, at least by one count, are Jewish."

Jewish invention: American comics (Ynet, Oct 29, 2005): "Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, X-Men, The Thing, even Thor: Jews channeled 'adolescent boys’ primal projections,' thus transforming a disreputable enterprise - the lowly comic - into a cornerstone of pop culture."

Leopold of Arabia (Amir Ben-David, Haaretz, Nov, 15, 2001): "Born in 1900 to a Jewish family in Lvov, Leopold Weiss died nine years ago as Muhammad Assad, a pious Muslim who helped create the country of Pakistan. ... The riveting story of a Jew who changed his name, his faith, his wives, his nationality - and the face of the Islamic world."
