Available data suggest that genetic and congenital disorders are more common in Arab countries than in industrialised countries; recessively inherited disorders account for a substantial proportion of physical and mental handicap. Several factors may contribute to the high prevalence of genetically determined disorders:
High consanguinity rates 25-60% of all marriages are consanguineous, and the rate of first cousin marriages is high. In addition, isolated subpopulations with a high level of inbreeding exist. Furthermore, in many parts of the Arab world the society is still tribal. This has made the epidemiology of genetic disorders complicated, as many families and tribal groups are descended from a limited number of ancestors and some conditions are confined to specific villages, families, and tribal groups, leading to an unusual burden of genetic diseases in these communities (table B on bmj.com)
The high prevalence of haemoglobinopathies, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, autosomal recessive syndromes, and several metabolic disorders (fig A and table C on bmj.com)
The rate of children with Down's syndrome in some Arab countries exceeds the 1.2-1.7 per 1000 typical for industrialised countries. This may be related to the relatively high proportion of births to older mothers in the region (up to 50% of children with Down's syndrome in the region are estimated to be born to mothers aged 40 or over)
The lack of public health measures directed at the prevention of congenital and genetic disorders, with inadequate health care before and during pregnancy, particularly in low income countries
Services for the prevention and control of genetic disorders are restricted by certain cultural, legal, and religious limitations, such as the cultural fear of families with genetic diseases being stigmatised within their community and the legal restrictions on selective termination of pregnancy of an affected fetus.

And the inbreeding is producing murderous psychopaths.
What are the odds that the chunk attributed to Europe and the USA is largely because of Muslim Immigrants?
These are the filthy, inbred, brainwashed psychotics we're supposed to reason with and make deals with, which they always break.
They are about 1000 years behind in everything and yet they play the rest of the world for fools, and win every time.
These "people" are not our equals, they belong to the largest brainwashing cult in history, it would take 100 years to de-program HALF of the population from their, slaughter Israel, slaughter the west, slaughter the non-muslim mindsets.
Excuse my barbarism, but the only solution is to start killing these people by the millions, which we'll never do, Americans don't do Holocausts.
Which is why, eventually, probably not in my lifetime, we will lose, OR slaughter them by the millions.
FYI.
When you and the guys go out cruisin', looking to get lucky and the best you can do is a Goat, or your sister or first cuz, what can one expect?
Unfortunately they deal in volume of births. Fortunately they deal in crappy behavior that gets them "offed" early in their miserable, non productive lives.
Consanguineous marriage within social/occupational class boundaries in Pakistan.Shami SA, Grant JC, Bittles AH.
Department of Biological Sciences, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad, Pakistan.
Data on patterns of consanguineous marriage were collected from 5340 families resident in eight cities in the Pakistan province of Punjab. To assess whether social and/or occupational class was interacting with consanguinity, information also was obtained on the hereditary qaum to which each family belonged. In the present generation 46.5% of all marriages were contracted at the level of second cousin or closer, with an average coefficient of inbreeding (F) of 0.0286, and the results indicated that in each of the seventeen qaums there was strong preference for marriage to a close biological relative. However, significant differences existed in the distribution of consanguineous marriage by qaum membership, which could interfere with the interpretation of studies into the biological effects of inbreeding.

Quaint native custom. Who are we to judge? We celebrate diversity. We certainly cannot impose our values. Who is to say that one society is better than any other?
Wow.
Is this why they all look alike?
My guess is that you'd be right about that.
I guess it's very difficult for Muslims to figure out who their sister is when all the women are covered from head to toe in a black burka.
They just pick one from the group. No need for silly western practices such as admiring a woman's looks. When they flip up that burka from behind, they all look like the same, even the gay guys wearing burka's. Since Muslim women have no need to shave, there's no way to tell if that hairy butt is their sister, or the gay guy next door..
In practice, the money goes to the girl's father. This can lead to a very bad situation if the girl backs out of a lucrative marriage, and may be the cause of many "honor killings"
Keeping marriage in the family/tribe keeps the money in the family/tribe.
It also explains why Muslim men want to convert Western women to Islam: no bride price required
Do you have a link for that?
Also,is there a chart that includes second cousins?
Now we know "the rest of the story". A'rabs are not suffering from an inferiority complex. They actually are inferior.
