In another thread there are tropes about black people and crime. That trope seems to bother you but you love spreading tropes about Jews. I wonder why?
The point is that calling something a trope and implying it is false is dishonest. And a listing of documented facts is simply that, a list of facts
Pointing at blacks as the major purveyors of American violence and crime is a lie. As I have noted several times, American foreign (and domestic) policy kills millions of people every few years
This is a pretty serious distortion of reality.
It's taken almost 30 years (not just a "few")for the US military to rack up 2M dead Muslims in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, etc, and a lot of this was the US lighting the fuse and standing back as Shia and Sunni killed each other -- a fairly standard imperial tactic.
Blacks make up about 13% of the US population, yet are about 18% of the US military.
Sec Def Lloyd Austin and USAF Chief of Staff Charles Brown are both Black.
Historically, with very few exceptions, The Congressional Black Caucus, which now stands at 57 of 535 Congressional seats (but does not include all Black members of Congress), has gone along with starting and funding US wars abroad.
For a guy from the Boston area, you're being disingenuous regarding the Sullivans and the O'Brien's.
The Irish do dominate $ in politics and key spots in the Biden admin?
The sources I listed are false?
Do facts matter to you?
The Irish dominated and still dominate local politics in the Boston area and in other cities. If you wanted many union jobs you needed to be Irish. Jews went into the garment district, the entertainment business, became bankers and took other jobs. Jews went into white collar jobs that required a college education. That's how they became successful in this country and some others. Some of the Asian immigrant groups are doing the same now as are Nigerians.
Regarding national politics, Jews are "over represented." Other groups have the same opportunity. Money will yield influence whether its Jewish money or Christian money.
To you every Nobel prize winner, academy award winner, Pulitzer prize winning, Fullbright scholar Jew is undeserving. That's where your prejudice lies.

Plenty of Muslim blood on Black hands.

2. You think the awards are solely merit based? Where is Assange's Pulitzer?

The Nobel Prize in Literature is a joke. They gave it to Pearl Buck, ignoring the likes of Joyce, Nabokov, Twain, Tolstoy, Ibsen, Zola, and many others -- it's a pretty long list.
Saul Bellow regularly lobbied strenuously for it until they finally gave it to him just to get him to stop annoying them.
The prize in something as laughable as Economics is equally deranged.

You seem to be an advocate for assimilation, Jews found out the hard way that assimilation doesn't help. In some countries they couldn't own land and they were forced to be merchants, bankers, and take on other occupations and yes live in certain areas.
Blacks and browns and Asians and Irish, Italians, Poles got all those good jobs picking crops, building railroads and subways, working in the coal mines.
Jews wanted those jobs but had to settle for being bankers and merchants!
Come on Coach.
I was specifically writing about Europe. In this country most of the Jews came after the 1880s. They had been merchants in Europe, they had trades and they continued with those trades. The garment industry in New York, mail order clothing catalogues, department stores were built by Jews. They were not in government in those days and they had little political influence. They also always valued education. College was expected. 60 years ago many very young Jews were expected to go to college to be a Dr, lawyer, or accountant. Many other young non Jewish kids wanted to be be plumbers, electricians, firemen, builders like their fathers.
Asian immigrants whose parents are the modern tailors, small store owners and merchants are using the same playbook and their kids are becoming computer scientists, engineers and doctors.

That Austin has say on policy?
I cannot disagree more.
If you think Austin has no say on what the US military does or Charles Brown does not run the USAF, then you simply do not understand what's going on. To you they are just stooges? They bear no responsibility?
Likewise, Obama was just a porch negro and all the mayhem perpetrated during his reign had nothing to do with him?

Awards are often a joke but acknowledging contributions in many fields isn't. The over representation of Jews in chemistry and physics is not political payback except to uncle carmine.
I thought of Gabler's book "Empire of Their Own: How The Jews Invented Hollywood" when this thread first started. The book was highly praised when it was published in 1988 by notable Jewish book reviewers, film critics, people in the entertainment industry and Jewish publications like Commentary. I went to a reading and talk by the author at the Jewish Museum in NYC.
The documentary film version of "Empire of Their Own" won "Best Jewish Experience Documentary" at the 1998 Jerusalem Film Festival.

It's one thing to suggest that Jews invented and now control Hollywood. It's another thing to blame your inability to be successful on Jews which is what many blacks and some posters here seem to do. And when Kanye does this he rallies his base to commit violence.
Words have consequences. When Trump started talking about the China virus, Asians were attacked. When people classify Muslims as terrorists Mosques and middle eastern people are attacked.

So brainwashed.
Point out Jewish power in finance, the media, and politics and you go right to accusing people of being unsuccessful and blaming Jews for it!
Point out important facts and you accuse people of causing violence
Who has been behind the vilification of Muslims and Arabs for decades that has led to so much violence against that community? Any thoughts?

I'm not denying Jewish power, I'm just condemning violence against groups which you justify.
Who has been behind the vilification of Muslims? Should I say they're deserving by their actions? I don't feel that way, I don't make blanket statements about groups, yet you do about Jews. It's interesting that Halal stores and Arabs usually move into areas that were populated by Jews. Why? Because the Jews are the one group who always accepted diversity. Up until the 1980s this was absolutely the case but relations have been poor the last few decades.

When did I ever justify violence against any group?
Top pushers of anti Muslim propaganda in USA in recent years:
Pam Geller, David Horowitz, Daniel Pipes come right to mind.
