RFK Jnr, also known as "The Brainworm" for well-known reasons, has recently addressed an issue that is seldom a vote-changer in US Midterm Elections, namely the thorny question of Arab under-achievement.
Speaking on or around October 26, 2026, alongside Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers, while campaigning for the Trumpublican ticket in the state, Kennedy said:
"There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."
It is interesting that a prominent Trumpublican is so willing to denigrate a race that has expressed its intellectual vacuity in recent years mainly by dumping shitloads of bribes on Donald Trump and his extended family.
Just recently Dutch intelligence uncovered the fact that Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, of the well-know Kushner crime family, had access to a slush fund of $700 million dollars provided by two Arabs, namely the rulers of the UAE and Saudi Arabia. While the money may be intended for certain "political purposes," it is clear that the method is bribery and corruption, and it would be glaringly naïve not to suppose that Kushner and Trump were not getting a taste. In fact it might all be for them!
But never mind that, what about RFK Jnr's "big picture" claims of Arab inferiority that are not based on their propensity to bribe an orange shitbag and his son-in-law? While factually not entirely correct—some people of Arab descent have indeed won some of the prizes mentioned—it is nevertheless true that, as groups of roughly 500 million go, the Arabs have underperformed in the sciences, at least since the Mongols destroyed Baghdad in 1256. Not sure American academic institutions would be in such a great place if they had to put up with frequent incursions by hordes of genocidal steppe nomads.

Mongols fucking up the chances of Arabs winning Nobel prizes
But if RFK Jnr is so worried about getting those Arab numbers up in the sciences, what would be the best way to go about it in the modern day?
Number One would be to remove the destabilising influence of Israel in the region.
Since it was injected into the Middle East like a toxin in the 1940s, Israel has served as an extreme irritant on Arab societies and culture, pushing them into extremes of Arab nationalism, which mainly ensured corrupt, brutal, authoritarian elites, or else jihadi-style movements, which led to terroristic subcultures, while also bolstering theocratic regimes like the Saudis. None of this seems particularly conducive to winning the Fields or Nobel prizes on a regular basis.

Some would say that removing the destabilising influence of Israel in the region could be done by a "good, old-fashioned" two-state solution, but that seems extremely naïve now. Also, an avid Zionist like RFK Jnr would hardly favour such a solution. Anyway, it should be blatantly clear to most people that the time for that has come and gone, probably in the 1980s or early 90s, certainly pre-Netanyahu. Now there is only one solution: Israel has to be relocated to a less toxifying location.
Israel or a Jewish state is not inherently toxic as Anti-Semites think. Indeed, even in chemistry toxicity is not an inherent characteristic of individual chemicals in toxic compounds. Typically they only become toxic in combination.
This is exactly what we see in the case of Israel. Not only does it irritate and toxify the Middle East around it, but it also becomes more toxic in itself. Unlike the early Jewish state, the Likudnic state of Bibi Netanyahu has thrown morality and common human decency out of the window. There may even be a logic to that, which seems to make sense in a certain realpolitik way. But the ultimate logic may be for that state to become so toxic that it poisons itself out of existence and this solves the problem by its demise. Only an anti-Semite would want that.

But where can Israel be relocated to without causing similar geopolitical toxicity issues?
As the logic of the foundation of the state of Israel was always the German Holocaust, it has long been my view that Israel should originally have been founded on former Nazi territory and that the ideal position would have been and still is the former territory of East Prussia, the more considerable portion of which is the Kaliningrad Oblast. This territory, which is similar in size to Israel, is also close to the places once occupied by the East European Jews who drove the foundation of the Zionist state, erroneously as a bastardized attempt to colonize part of the Arab World.
Also, thanks to the way in which it was acquired by the Soviets in 1945 and ethnically cleansed, it has no deeply-rooted population (rather like the vast majority of Jews in Israel-Palestine). Furthermore, due to the imminent collapse of Putinist Russia, it may soon be on the market again at a bargain basement price!
Yes, the planets truly seem to be aligning on this one.

The only question would be whether all the Mizrahi Jews who have zero connection with Europe would be allowed to relocate to such a state. Personally, I would oppose that, as their inclusion would hinder the re-Europeanisation of Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews, and thus create a new toxicity dilemma. I would recommend instead that they tried to reintegrate into the Arab world as they once did, in the best ways possible.
The home of Immanuel Kant and the future Jewish state?
