How many of nobel prize winning Jews are from Middle-east?
not many. nobel prize started in 1900, by which time the middle east was the last place where you could find jews!! but there have been quite a few sabra laureates of late.
Middle-east is the homeland of the Jews and you will see their names coming up many times in their history. Nothing special about it.
to go into the cultures of other countries and hold top positions is VERY special. there was even one in india - during the bangladesh war the chief of staff of Arora, who was in charge of the Eastern side, was a jew called Jacob.
Jews were treated differently in Christian Europe as killers of Christ.
yes, as also non-europeans.
This sense of insecurity made them aware of networking among themselves and always to be one step ahead of rest of the society in which they were living. This would also explain why they were not so succesful in places like India.
i know about that. thats one of 4 reasons why they are so successful - their eagerness to keep ahead of society.
