#1 The Saudi family tree looks like a ball of yarn.

#2  Islam and Arabic spread hand-in-hand.

Islam, Arabic and polio.

#3 It's got a nice race based historical identity and "hooray for us" built into the project. All in all, just about what I'd expect from them.

#4 Excellent. Thanks for the information necessary to target a virus to kill the lot of you when we get fed up with your Arabia-supremacism.

#5 That is one possibility but other possibility is to make a virus for killing everyone but Arabs.

#8 Lets hope the research exposes the DNA predisposition for LAZY!

#9 Why, Besoeker, do you think any confirmation is necessary?

"Saudi project puts Arabs on genetic map"
I'm more interested in dealing with the Saudi project that they have never been appropriately repaid for: 9/11.

#10 No, personally I do not. But a respected, professional medical opinion might convince doubting others.

#11 my thoughts exactly JFM. I predict this is how the wars of the future will be fought.

Little merit on that. In the weeks after 9/11 I skimmed over a book who contemplated seval end of world scenarios. First one was Saudis using renegade western and japanese scientists to produce a virus targeted at everyone else.

#12 They'll discover they're all going to have to marry non-Saudis in order to get rid of all the problems they've bred in over the centuries... and the dowries/brideprices will be high because nobody else wants to bring such problems into the family line. There is a peril in actually knowing; hence the penalty for eating that apple from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, back in the day. ;-)

#13 I think they're mapping the genome of the Master Race.

#14 Apostasy!!! If Allan had wanted them to know these things he would have put it in the Koran.

#15 I would think that unearned wealth is all the nurture required to explain epic cultural Saudi laziness. And that probably is a significant contributor to the diabetes thing, too. Why bother bringing genetic predisposition into things?
