#1 Not to mention that the only Moslem Nobel Prize science laureate, Dr. Abdus Salam, is disowned by the rest of the Moslem community. He's the wrong kind of Moslem.

#2 from salam's wikipedia entry

"...Salam was buried in the graveyard Bahishti Maqbara in Rabwah [Pakistan] next to his parents' graves. The epitaph on his tomb initially read "First Muslim Nobel Laureate" but, because of Salam's adherence to the Ahmadiyya Muslim sect, the word "Muslim" was later erased on the orders of a local magistrate, leaving the non-sensical "First Nobel Laureate..."

#3 Never heard of Abdus before. From Wikipedia, he "was a Pakistani theoretical physicist, astrophysicist and Nobel laureate in Physics for his work in Electro-Weak Theory. Salam, Sheldon Glashow and Steven Weinberg shared the prize for this discovery". Not too shabby!

I can think of two explanations for the Nobel Prize Muslim/Jew imbalance. One is that the perfidious Juice have stolen all the Nobels that should have gone to deserving Muslims. The other explanation, more plausible to the rational mind, is the Muslims have produced little of scientific or cultural value over the last century aside from fatwas and corpses.
