The Real Problem With RFK Jr.’s “Arabs Don’t Do Science”

A controversy just broke out on my LinkedIn page . The topic: RFK Jr.’s anti-Arab rant : “There’s five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don’t produce science. They don’t win the Nobel Prize. They don’t win the Fields Prize. They don’t win the Wolf Prize. They don’t produce literature.” I normally pay very little attention to LinkedIn. I’m not looking for a job. I’m already fully-employed as an “antisemitic conspiracy theorist” (the ADL’s job description ). And I’m not looking to hire any antisemitic conspiracy theorists’ assistants. So I was surprised to get emails from LinkedIn telling me that my account was getting lots of comments. It turned out that Substack had automatically generated a clip (watch it above) from this week’s False Flag Weekly News featuring my back-and-forth with Dr. J. Michael Springmann on RFK’s anti-Arab rant—and, unbeknownst to me, posted it on LinkedIn, quickly drawing over 1,000 views and sparking comments. Some commenters agreed with us that RFK Jr. was out to lunch, since the Arabs created modern science. Others piled on, saying things like “Anyone even considering that RFK knows anything worthwhile about anything needs help!” Still others pushed back, pointing out that “Arabic” numerals came from India, the Sumerians and Greeks did science long before the Arabs, and so on. And of course there was an inarticulate grunt from a token racist moron. “Resolved: The Arabs Invented Modern Science” would be a great debate topic. There are plenty of good arguments in favor, as well as plausible counter-arguments with which to temper, though not negate, the proposition.. In any case, RFK’s “the Arabs don’t produce science” is nonsense. Not only did Arab civilization largely create modern science, it is massively overrepresented in science Nobel Prizes vis-a-vis the rest of the continent of Africa. Setting aside white South Africans, who obviously are not natives of Africa, the only Nobel Prizes in science won by Africans have gone to people from Arab countries, namely: Ahmed Zewail (Egypt), Moungi Bawendi (Tunisia), Claude Cohen-Tannoudji (Algeria), and Serge Haroche (Morocco). Since only 17% of Africans are Arabs, it’s remarkable that that very small minority has won every single Nobel Prize for science awarded to an African. And it’s even more remarkable given the massive anti-Arab bias of Zionist-Jew-dominated Western culture. Whenever there is a Jew on any committee, which is often, they will likely veto any attempt to award anything to an Arab. Trust me. I worked in academia for years and saw it up-close and personal. One memorable example of Jewish anti-Arab bias in scientific work involves the 2001 anthrax attacks. Jewish-Zionist suspected Mossad sayanim Dr. Philip Zack spent years doling out racist harassment to his Egyptian co-worker, Ayaad Assaad , at the US Army's Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases ( USAMRIID ), in Fort Detrick , Maryland. After the 2001 anthrax letters had been sent, but before the media and public had heard of them, Dr. Zack sent an anonymous letter to the FBI fingering Assaad as a likely bio-terroris
