Israel has A LOT of Arabs though so you need to take that into consideration. I think you and I both agree that some folks are simply better than others.


Those are Palestinians not considered part of the 6 million.

A human is not "good" just because he is very intelligent. And he is certainly bad if this intelligence allows him to prey on others.


Women fawned over Ted Bundy watch the expressions of the Sorority Women that were present during his last killing at the courtroom during the trial.

What makes a human "good?"

Intelligence is really not that different from physical power when you think about it. Instead of having physical prowess, he has mental prowess. What sets a truly good human apart is his compassion, kindness, his ability to empathize and help lift others. But predictably the likes of thundercock only know to worship raw intelligence.

I have my own criteria, which I know for a fact are very different from yours. You only know to worship dominance, wealth and intelligence.

ETHICS, Something the Israeli's and the vast majority of American Jews do not have.

The answer is ethics.

Well what are those criteria?

I don't "worship" the things that you mentioned but they are very important to me among other things.

It's like papapsych says, ethics. Or what I call having a moral compass.

I am not saying intelligence isn't important. However, it should not be the only thing. If there is someone who is very intelligent however he doesn't have ethics/morality, then to me he is worse than someone who is dumb.

I'm probably the most ethical person on this forum tbh. I'm the only one who was arrested for assaulting a Chinese national who tried to start shit with our Taiwanese friends. Thankfully I wasn't charged because law enforcement deemed my actions "just." The Chinaman was deported and he lost his immigration status in America. The family is now broken apart and the ex-wife upgraded and now has a wonderful family.

Do you think you're capable of doing that much good in this world?
