That brings up another subject. With the invention of the pill in the 60s, double X chromosome intelligence has become a self-limiting trait. I don't think men with Ph.Ds father significantly less children. The pill hasn't been around long enough to have had a major genetic impact but it will be significant in the future. Before the pill, highly educated women had many children.
If you don't think wars have had a significant genetic impact, look around. How many Native North Americans do you see? Thinking that world wars have ended is a bad bet. It's just a matter of time before the terrorists get a nuclear device and kill millions of people, setting off another revision to the gene pool.
99% of Native Americans that were wiped out by the Europeans died as the result of diseases they had never before encountered. Wars with the colonists killed relatively few in comparison.

A nuclear terrorist attack would have absolutely no effect on evolution. Survival is dependant on distance from the blast, and nothing to due with genetics. The only way you would be correct is if mulsims were exterminated in retalitation.
