How large does the difference in IQ have to be in order to get a noticeable difference between 2 persons?

By the way, I know this question has an answer. I am not asking questions that have no answers here.

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

No.

You showed me a map (supposedly) showing varying levels of IQ around the world.

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...

Chop chop cut *gurggle* another day another head. War-reporters know the risk but this man was there to help. Even Al Quaida asked for his release. Rest in peace in pieces.

Meh, savages.

As our Turkish friend used to say, colour me surprised.

In the meantime, the caliphate's ministry of propaganda is pretty busy.

He's from Iran if we are talking about our resident Kurd. But there is something fishy about the drawlines situated on the Kurdish territories.

Not that hard to find. Could be that you are too leftist to actualy see it, I never know with leftist people if they ignore facts or that they just can't register them.

From what I know, they currently train kurds over here to use MILAN missiles. Afterwards they will get those, as they were aged surplus anyway and delivering them to Kurdistan is cheaper than dismantling them in accordance with European environmental standards.
