Moors and Saracens are historically ill-defined ethnic groups. Anglo-Saxons were a cluster of tribal groups and clans that existed centuries ago in Northern Europe. What has this got to do with the biological concept of species and the none-too-scientific concept of race? There are more differences, and more important differences, between individuals than there are between so-called racial groups. On that basis it is important to judge people according to their individual qualities of character rather than superficial racial qualities like skin colour. As for Jews, surveys of their intelligence in the States show that they tend to be above average. That would explain why in the fifties an American university had a count of 40% Jewish amongst its students against a local urban population of 5% Jewish. That's pretty good (allowing for other factors influencing enrolment rates in a mixed population). I have often wondered if the reason some Middle Eastern types resent Jews is because the Jews tend to be smarter. The Israelis have certainly made better use of the land than Arabs ever did. Here in Australia Jews are a quiet living, industrious group, no trouble at all. They are welcome on "our" land. But then it's their land too. They have been here since the nineteenth century and are completely blameless as a group.
