That was an open city for many years, that is BB>>anyone could enter without papers - thus filled with white Russians BB>>and Jews. LL> China had been carved up by foreign powers thus making it LL> suitable for outsiders. Furthermore, entire countries were LL> carved out of what once was China. In a way, Chinese and LL> Japanese are the same people, given the Japans were settled LL> by Chinese runaways. Were they? Or were they Mongolians? Or Koreans? Well, since we all trace back to Africa, they were settled by Africans. Though I long ago learned, the original inhabitants of Japan were Caucasian. BB>>But the story about not turning over their Jews can be traced to BB>>a very wise Jewish Rabbi, that found out that the Nazi's were BB>>indeed asking the Japanese to round up the Jews living there. BB>>He went to the Japanese commandant and said the only reason BB>>they're asking for us is because they believe we're inferior just BB>>like they look at YOU!
