  1. "What is it about Jews that makes them so successful?" One generalization one can (surprisingly) safely make about Jews, is they have more of a tendency than other cultures to hold bar mitzvahs. This is when a teenager is hauled up in front of everyone his parents want to impress, to prove that he's literate. (And can maybe sing a bit.) Compare this with other cultures, with rites-of-passage into manhood that involve successfully hunting a gazelle with a silver knife. (Where the gazelles get these silver knives, I'll never know.) Literacy is an incredibly important cultural asset -- you can learn from people you've never met, without taking up any of their time beyond an initial investment. There are probably other cultural assets you can point to, but this one has the advantage of being rather uncontroversial.
