Of course there are north-africans who do well, but not a lot. Not the avarage one, way behind. Do you deny that? Do you deny that there is an increased risk of physical and mental illness because of centuries of 'keeping it in the family'?Quote:

but nevermind guys, Fragony has got it all figured out. Let's just burn all scientific papers arguing for anything else and pelt them at incoming immigrants.
Never heard about that but I'll look it up. Whiping out the intellectuals in China didn't had any effect though, they are still very intelligent people.Quote:

Mental illness is also subjective. Believing in someone born of a virgin who was impregnated by something that was partly what the virgin gave birth to, performed miracles, died and then was resurrected and hasn't been since seems pretty loopy - unless if is an allowed form.

IQ tests only show how good you are at that specific test - to be obtuse if I was given an IQ test in Norwegian I'd get almost all of it wrong as I'd not understand the instructions which is a language barrier not my innate cognition.Quote:

Indeed, but I'm ignoring that* part so I can hear Frags answer as to how big the IQ difference has to be in order to be noticeable.Quote:

The difference is substantial, but you also only have to look at the level of education, vmbo is lowest although there are multiple levels, but they just are a rare sight om the higher levels.Quote:

Don't this site just googled
lol.
First things first: that's not an answer. I asked you what specifically constitutes a significant and noticeable IQ difference, not what you think the IQ around the world is. Ie. a straight up number. Is 1 IQ point difference noticeable? 5? 10? 20? 50?
Secondly, and most hilariously: Your site uses a celtic cross as an icon. First red flag. The categories of the site is listed at the top, and includes the following categories:
- Featured stories
- World
- US
- Race War (2nd red flag)
- Society
- Jewish Problem (3rd)
- Insight
- Sci/Tech
The six featured stories on the site have the following headlines:
"White Lesbian Suing Sperm Bank for Impregnating Her with a Black Child"
"Jews Cry Antisemitism as Belguim Moves to Ban Animal Torture"
"Video Shows Broad Daylight Armed Assault Against White Family in South Africa"
"Black Terror Lord Jacob Zuma Vows to Defend the Jews"
"Nick Griffin Expelled from the BNP"
"In America, Jews Push Gun Control. Meanwhile, in Israel…
Congratulations Frags, you just managed to (attempt to) back up your totally-not-racist claims by linking to a genuine, full-blown Nazi site.
Well played, sir, well played.
Picked the first I could find, don't know the site.
Google will show you a lot more
Yes, and when this information is widely reproduced by various neo-nazi websites, that doesn't tell you anything about the quality of the information? Lynn is bunk, get over it.Quote:

Fair game, girls are doing much better, but are still way behind Dutch girls.
They are behind because they come from different backgrounds. I see the same thing with Roma kids in Serbia. They lack proper environment in their early childhood so they are already lagging behind a lot when they start school. They need extra attention, which isn't always available, but if they do get it, most of the time they catch up in a few years.Quote:

Then you should have no problems giving a straight answer. For example, is 1 IQ point enough to make a difference? What about 10?Quote:

Until that point, we are more or less trying to calculate the weight of a bag of oranges using a meter stick.
This is nothing more than an attempt to avoid a direct question. I'll try again:Quote:

By the way, I know this question has an answer. I am not asking questions that have no answers here.
So when you never answer a specific question and reply to a quote with something that has absolutely no relevance to the question you quoted, you call that "talking too much in contempt"? I call that either an inability to come up with a proper response or changing the topic the entire time because you do not want to leave the territory you feel comfortable on, which so far is only the realm of very vague generalizations that you can only back up using vague links to nazi sites.Quote:

You allready got my answer, you just don't like my answer.Quote:

You have not told me what level of difference is necessary before you actually notice this difference. You may use the map if you prefer that over numbers(though I don't see why).
For example, is the slightly darker blue of Italy enough of a difference to notice a difference between Italy and Germany? What about Russias slightly lighter blue than Poland? Cameroons darker shade of red compared to Nigeria? Or will you only notice it when you go from colour to colour, ie. UK's blue versus Ghana's red?
And what is the difference between the colours, in numbers?
By the way, the average IQ on a dutch IQ test is 100, not 105. If it's anything but 100 in any country, the test is wrong.
We take a break from this regularly scheduled rant to return to topic:
For what its worth, Canada is in:

The whole strategy seems to hinge on the locals being up to the combat side of the mission. Just wondering, did the Kurds ever actually get the weapons they were promised? (you know, to put them on some kind of parity with ISIS?)
Can't they take them from the Iraqi army like everyone else does? Rout an Iraqi unit or two, take their weapons...Quote:
