Arabic numbers came into Europe through North Africa, but they originated in India. The Babylonians used weighted place numbers (base 60) in third milleum BC. Greek astronomers used Babylonia numbers for performing calculations.
It’s given in the article. Click on the link.
“... consideration of the prominent Arab achievements, both scientific and non-scientific, during 2016.
“First, he said, there is the car bomb tactic, which ISIS and Jabhat al-Nusra excel at, which transforms basic primary materials into a devastating mechanism of killing, without the need to develop inventions and carry out complex scientific research as is done in the West.
“Second on his list: Transforming any device or tool into a tank or lethal bomb, as happened when [ISIS] supporters in Europe, who are usually of Arab descent, ran over passersby in Nice, France and elsewhere. Thus, knives have become tools for carrying out stabbing [attacks] and axes and butcher knives have [likewise] become deadly weapons.
“Third was the concept of the lone wolf.
“No need to plan, he pointed out.
“Then there are the barrel bombs.
If you wish to eliminate an armed uprising, instead of conducting urban combat with precise military planning and directly confronting [the rebels], and instead of using expensive missiles that might miss their targets, all you have to do is use barrel bombs dropped from planes that kill hundreds of people, and terrify the others into willingly emigrating.’
“5. Successes in the field of ethnic cleansing.
6. Refugees.
7. Destroying and blowing up antiquities.
8. Our capabilities in the field of destroying our own people and structures.
9. [Recognizing] the importance of tyrannical regimes in preserving stability.
10. Rediscovering the Shiite-Sunni conflict.
True, but Arabic mathematicians from Iraq and Syria regions, also played a role, specifically with decimals and fractions.
I’m sure there have been a few more since 2006, including Bob Dylan in 2016.
“can you supply a reason for the large discrepancy between the Arab/Islamic populations contribution to the world body and that of the Jew? “
Why yes I can. One of two reasons. Arab Muslims like to kill Arab Muslims, or they are just that damn stupid.
Was that redundant?

That list is racist.../ S
“Sure. It sums up in just one word. Culture.”
CULTURE, yepper, they don’t have it /any ....
Natural endowments? Stupidity with a desire to remain ignorant.
Regarding your “bad Jews” comment. To my knowledge George Soros does not identify as Jewish, even though he is. People like him and Marx are apostate Jews. So what? Stalin and Mao were apostate christians who dropped out of seminary.
>>True, but Arabic mathematicians from Iraq and Syria regions, also played a role, specifically with decimals and fractions.
But that was before the “Moon God” corrupted their minds.
No, Arabic numeric system not “from” the Arabic-Muslim states (culture ) but VIA the Arabic states. They had learned about it from the Indo Hindu No inventors.
Sorry. Don’t know what clickbait means.
Of course there are evil people in every group. But only one “religion” actually mandates evil in its “holy” book.
The rogues gallery that you listed is indisputable, but the people you list are evil all themselves, not because their scriptures command it.
yes. I agree.
Indeed.
First-Cousin marriage for 14 centuries can contribute to that.
LOL!
