Welcome back everyone, Lhasa Montgomery, here once again with another CHP episode,

the 2008th in a series going all the way back to mid-2010.

Sorry for the recent disappearing act but I believe I warned

you last episode. It's hectic here to say the least and there hasn't been the usual amount

of CHP time as in years past to churn out these episodes.

Sorry I can't give you any details.

Interesting though they are.

You may end up getting much more than you bargained for in this episode at no additional charge whatsoever. I thought while we were all here discussing this subject to the Jewish refugees in China? Why not fly our balloon at Bilek's Bomegartner Heights

one more time and get a free overview of some of the history of the Jews, and why it was much later on that many Jews were fleeing

in such great numbers from their cities, towns and villages during the first half of the 20th century,

and heading in the direction of China. You know, when Jews and Chinese get together, sometimes there's this banter about how the two

peoples have so many shared values. The main ones I here are the parallels

between confusion and Judeo-Christian values, love of education and learning,

closeness of family thriftiness entrepreneurial

skills this tendency to stick together good in business a worldwide diaspora who achieved so much in their adoptive homes,

a history of persecution and a lot of places where this diaspora ended up,

a shared suffering during World War II, and a few others that attest to the notion that, indeed, Jews, Chinese,

yeah, there sure is a lot you could say they have in common.

I found that, although you can

rattle off these similarities,

that didn't necessarily mean

they're exclusive to Jews and Chinese.
