I'm still in Vegas - Thursday night I saw David Copperfield and last night it was Spamalot. I don't do reviews so if I mention a play or a movie it's only as a segue to some related story. If you haven't seen Spamalot yet and you get perturbed if even a single small detail is revealed to you, you may want to skip the rest of this post.
I see you are still reading. Actually the small scene I am going to mention really won't ruin the play for you but I know people who do not even want to know how King Kong turns out before they go to see a modern remake of it. Anyway, back to Spamelot: it has moocho scantily clad women so I did enjoy the show immensely if you must know. John O'Hurley, formerly seen as J. Peterman on Seinfeld, is currently performing as King Arthur. Interestingly he sings well. But that's not what I want to write about; rather it's a scene where King Arthur is told that he cannot put a show on Broadway unless he has Jews. The skit is one of the more hilarious in the show.
The notion that one cannot produce a show on Broadway in New York without Jews has some validity. If one visits Arthur Hu's Index of Diversity one can glean some interesting facts about Jews:
College age Jews in college: 85%
Yale Grad students: 60%
Top Hollywood positions: 60%
Lawyers at top NY and DC law firms: 40%
Supreme Court Law Clerks: 30%
US Senate: 10%
Wealthiest Americans: 23%
Top 100 wealthy Canadians: 23%
US Population: 2%
World Population: 1/4th of 1%.
I have also written previously that the majority of Nobel Prize Winners are Jewish.
What is interesting is that this high level of achievement is displayed in so many different fields, entertainment, law, science. But this has been written about many times before by many, many other bloggers, so why am I mentioning it now? It occurred to me how Muslims are demanding that history texts exclude mention of the Holocaust because it offends them to read about something they believe is a hoax.
So the question here is, if Muslims become a significant percent of the population in America, will they demand the removal of all copies of movies, plays, songs, TV shows, discoveries and inventions by Jews? Because if they do, here is what Muslims want the world to look like:
