Chinese jews

Yes they're here .... finally the chinese Jews from Kaifeng have finally arrived. It was an ancient jewish community from the Tang Dynasty that has lasted to this day. And they've immigrated to the Promised Land. Wow this is a big thing, ok? They're ancestors came from Persia or Syria to China a thousand years ago and now for the first time, some descendents get to actually enter the Promised Land. http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1256150030852&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull

Meantime Christians supporting Israel get their fingers burnt. Each year they offer millions of dollars to help Jews but the rabbis, after accepting the money, condemn christianity. http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1256150032346&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull

Weather report: still cold in the evenings. The sun sets by 5pm and things get pretty dark.
