I never questioned whether or not it was genetic, I only mentioned that it was so, however in the case of Jews it may very well have become hereditary after 10,000 years of persecution and virtually impossible to eliminate without taking away their religion.

Hence, further segregation policies only exacerbate the problem.

An exacerbation of the problem is not a concern; so as long as they are segregated it will not affect the majority.

The disparities are due the way they are treated in communities and have nothing to do with their cultures, genetics or religions.

That simply is not true.

So by instituting racist policies and segregationist ideals the problem only gets worse. So people from majority communities should not complain about a system created through their own agendas.

For them it does, for the majority it is no longer a problem. It's ultimately their right to be segregated, as once there is no one around to discriminate against them they can recoup and build the reality they choose for themselves. Integration via slavery and trade was a crime against humanity for everyone on all sides of the spectrum, although one must take in to account the disproportionate suffering minorities have faced in society. It can only get worse as the two try to interact with one another.
In that very link it mentions "the majority of the Arab countries adhere to Sunni Islam. Iraq, however, is a Shia majority country (65%), while Lebanon, Yemen, Kuwait, and Bahrain have large Shia minorities." Iraq is no typical Arab nation, it really shouldn't be considered one, but the fact remains that the war was a result of integration and competition between cultures. You can see now the dangers of communication between cultures.

A deep discussion would emenate from this. It is highly debateable. In today's society does a 12yr old girl have the mental faculties to be able to understand the consequences of sex, love etc. Is she mature enough to decide on whether it is suitable to have sex with an older man. The primary reason why people in older times married and had sex at younger ages, is because life expectancy in those times was half of what it is now. This point lacks the credibility it would have had 200years ago. Not the topic of this thread. Try the sex and affection forum, might achieve succesful debates there.

I don't believe it's the authority of the people to legislate what is and what isn't necessary to understand before engaging in sexual relations, after all we live in a society controlled by people who couldn't even understand the consequences of their own economic irresponsibility so it's clear that they're in no place to do something like that. I don't believe you can prescribe a reason for why people had sex at younger ages back then, but the reason people aren't doing it now is most certainly because of the feminization of society.

The point I was illustrating is that everyone will be negatively affected by a global nuclear war. Your house may not be destroyed, but food supply logistics will. Communication systems will. Economic systems. and so forth. You may have your house with a well, and a small subsistance farm, but everything you know now and take for granted will be lost for thousands of years.

That's true but does it matter ultimately? Everything we take for granted will be destroyed upon the expansion of the sun as it transitions to red giant phase, the entire planet will be vaporized, even if man can find a way out of that the universe will ultimately exist in a state in which matter cannot exist, albeit in an incomprehensible time period.
