Israeli Vs. Palestinian Advances

[JStone]

Israel is one of the most advanced, inventive, innovative countries in the world as a global leader in information technology, biotechnology, nanotechnology, pharmaceuticals, solar power, electric transportation, agriculture, scientific research and medical technology. Most Microsoft software programs and Intel's Pentium and Centrino microprocessors, for example, have been invented in Israel.

Israel has produced 5 Nobel Prize winners for important advances in science, mathematics and economics.

Several examples of Israeli medical innovations are below.

Which begs the question: Besides the suicide bomb belt, just what significant inventions and advances have the so-called Palestinians developed? More broadly, what great inventions have the Arabs, in general, innovated? Anything, at all? Oil doesn't count as it's a natural resource stolen from the Earth.

The FDA recently approved a groundbreaking new non-invasive, radiation-free lung imaging system created by Deep Breeze, Ltd, an Israeli company in Or Akiva. It is viewed by some as the most important medical imaging technology since ultrasound. It is being marketed by GE Healthcare in partnership with Deep Breeze.

Israeli biotech firm BrainsGate has developed some groundbreaking advances in the field of neurology. Two of their most exciting inventions are a device which controls blood flow to the brain from inside the mouth and another one which allows doctors to introduce medicines to the brain.

SMART, an Israeli medical technology firm, has developed a new way to identify infections in the body. Extremely helpful for hepatitis and HIV cases, SMART's ingenuity allows doctors to minimize the time between exposure and detection, enabling the body to defend itself with antibodies earlier than ever before
