I've read the papers on those statistics, and some of the countries were never actually tested, they just had their IQ's "guessed" by averaging surrounding countries. Syria was one such example.

Furthermore, notice how Israel has a lower than average IQ compared to other countries, hence they segregate the results into different Jewish ethnicities, something not done for all countries, It's almost like idea IQ superiority is something they are desperate to protect.pic.twitter.com/xvqOtz5Lzt

Even amongst Specifically the Ashkenazi ethnicity, the IQ in US is higher to that in Israel. If IQ is not affected by the economy or situation, then the same ethnicity should have the same IQ no matter where it is. That is not the case. https://pumpkinperson.com/2015/06/12/jewish-iq-in-israel-vs-america/ …pic.twitter.com/aPurKnI1gu

Yes, i agree there are differences, but to assume those numbers are purely a reflection of genetics is not accurate. Far East asia tests highest on IQ tests,yet East med & near easterners ,brought phonetic alphabets, algebra, & sewage pipes to the world.https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/motivation-may-influence-iq-scores …

Boring strawman, no one says intelligence is 100% genetic

I actually agree with your conclusion about different ethnicities having different IQs, I'm just saying that the data out there is not reliable because in some cases it's politically motivated.

I pointed out two specific examples that showed a selection bias, based on politics not genetics. I'm not attacking your point, I'm bringing another point forward. I thought u might be interested in details instead of the surface level argument we have all heard a million times.

Thanks for your point, but It's irrelevant to the point I'm making.
