Too bad the "risk of mental and physical disabilities increases significantly when cousins marry each other" bit of this guy's statement is a widely held misbelief. There must be some other reason the "Muslims" keep churning out retardeds. Keep searching Jihad Watch; I'm sure the real answer will be there somewhere.
You do realize the original news story is from a widely circulated Denmark Newspaper. The link is in the story. Oh maybe you decided not to read it. I thought liberals were the scholastically superior ideologues?
ETA: they are not saying the results are statistically insignificant between the 1st cousin and control groups. They are merely saying it's not "as bad as perceived"
Oh, and thanks to the OP for keeping it classy classy. Nice use of the r word and a link to Jihad Watch.
You're so right. The correct term is "retards", not "retardeds". Bad grammar and misspellings are rife here! Do you feel better with the proper term now in place?
Edited to add: Opps, that misspelling was in the second post... The OP did use the term correctly!
ah yes, the typical, knee jerk liberal deflection whenever a Muslim is painted in a bad light, complete with the politically partisan jab at the hated republicans.
It is a legit question, the man is a mental miget among normal men
The problem is not with first or second cousins reproducing for the first time in a gene pool group. The problem is the multiple reproductions of several generations with in a small gene pool group.
The odd cousin marriage here and there isn't going to hurt a group's gene pool, but when you have averages of 50% cousin marriages that's a serious problem. Cousin marriage is also, arguably, one point that keep immigrant muslim communities from integrating into their adopted societies, as it causes them to remain more insular.
I have also scratched my head about the redneck jokes (when cousin marriages are extremely low in the US) but no one blinks when they see statistics upward to 70% in places like Pakistan.

How about from just one gene pool? Started with Adam and Eve for many. They belong to that pool.

It's the aggregate case. This particular group shows that in the long run, it produces more retarded children. There also may be a higher propensity for muslim children to become retarded from 1st cousin mating, perhaps an external stimulus?
