Minister Trump's insult to the Arabs: 500 million Arabs do not produce science! Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services of the United States, made harsh statements about Arabs and Muslims on Monday during a speech at an election rally associated with the Republican Party in the state of "Michigan" and said: "500 million Arabs in the world do not produce science." Kennedy said these words to support Mike Rogers, who is the Republican Party candidate in the upcoming midterm elections. Rogers is going to compete with "Abd al-Sayed", the Muslim candidate of the Democratic Party in this country for the Senate seat. During his election campaign, Rogers claimed that "Abd al-Sayed" was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. "Mike Rogers talked about the Muslim Brotherhood," Kennedy said. That's something I can talk about. Talking about the Muslim Brotherhood is not Islamophobia. There are 500 million Arabs in the world, but they still do not produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize, the Fields Medal or the Wolf Prize, and they don't produce literature." However, Kennedy's claim about Nobel laureates contradicts the Nobel Foundation's official records. Ahmed Zowil, an Egyptian scientist, won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1999, and Geeb Mahfouz, an Egyptian writer, won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1988. Also, Tawakul Kerman, a Yemeni journalist and activist, jointly won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2011.
