The things that I see happening today sometimes induce me to reiterate this statement of yours, but putting the verb of the sentence into the past tense.

The problem lies in the fact that what matter is the average intelligence of a population: and our has proven during centuries to have obtained the best results in science and art.

Hmm... you are partly right here, but I'm not sure that the differences in achievement between Europeans and black Africans can be attributed to some innate differences in the average intelligence between the two racial groups.
What we have here as a mere established and unquestionable fact is the European better achievement in absolutely every conceiveble field. That alone is an unquestionable fact and the statement that this fact is due to some higher average intelligence, isn't an established fact, but merely one of the hypotheses that might be proposed to explain the above noted evident discrepancy in achievement. It is one of the possible interpretations.
I am not too sure in the probability and veracity of such an interpretation, first of all because the very concept of intelligence is a very vague one and cannot be easily grasped or defined. There are different types of intelligence and there are sometimes highly intelligent individuals who tend to be destructive to the community. It could be argued that it's not only intelligence that matters, but the way the society/community uses it.
On the other hand, all the studies and researches done by the American racialist (quasi?)scientists/geneticists of the past don't convince me too much, because they are all, almost without single exception, founded upon the premise of the American theory of the IQ as the sole indicator of intelligence.
Some argue that the European civilization is to be credited for all these achievements, a fruitful combination of Greek philosophy, Roman law and Christianity, which gave birth to a cultural climate in which intelligence could be used in the best way for the advancement of the community.
While in Africa, on the other hand, it was the policy of sheer and brutal force that solely mattered: the one who had the bloodiest club or sabre (or sword), who succeeded to kill the biggest number of enemies and impose himself forcefully upon others, was considered the most respectable member of the community. Sheer violence and power were the only criterion for the social advancement. The only "intellectuals" were sorcerers and medicine-men. It was thus a conjuction between power and magic that ruled Africa for millennia. Only the regions in which earlier Islamic and later Christian powers penetrated, were those that obtained some veneer of higher civilization.

If we for a moment made disappear all the inventions of europeans, we would be losing not only electricity and the other modern inventions that make our life easier and our work tremendously effective: we would be losing also the wheel and the horse, who were an indoeuropean invention. Obviously the U.S., having been populated with europeans of any social strata, with different backgrounds and motivation for leaving Europe, are not representative of the more refined european cultural traits for sure. A lot of bandit mentality still exists there, a lot of violence coming from the fact that many european immigrants were just bandits or losers. And a certain neglect of the public sphere leads to the State leaving important state matters abandoned to charity. Taking care of deranged individuals who are time bombs is an exquisitely european conquest. The Wild West still has to learn it.

There is a danger of large sections of European population descending on the level in which Africa has been living for millennia, even without the immigration. The trends have started. Glorifying of power and violence above anything else (the "cultural" pattern that can be found in rap muzac and in many other products of the entertainment) can be viewed as a sign of European decay, of a white-trashization of the continent.
