As a Chinese, I say we respect Israel a lot, almost all Chinese do. Not because anything else, but because you Israelis are real tough!!! Not everyone can beat an alliance of 4 to 6 nations single handedly, not to mention all those nations are much bigger than you. You are such a tiny country, but your achievements in warfare, economy, wealth, science and culture parallel even some of the largest empires on earth. BTW, WTF is a CHINESE JEW?!?!?!?!?!?!

The ones in Gaza and West Bank, are unfortunately not, as they pose a threat to the Israeli civilians and mainly Jews. But you have to remember 20% of Israel are Arab and have full rights. In West Bank and Gaza they have their own governments and get lots of aid from Israel.

I htink it's wonderful that Kaifeng's Jews are making Aliyah, but I wonder ifit's right to "convert" them to Ashkenazi customs? They're being taught to eat, sing, dance and say Hashem's praises according to "modern orthodox" which is Ashkenazi-centered. The Kaifeng Jews are thought to have been Persian in origin, but they're not being taught Persian-Jewish customs. Being a Jew doesn't mean dressing in black and eating farfel.

I am a Jew from the Arab country - Iran, now lives in Israel. The Khazars are descendants of the 10 lost tribes, and also the European Jews are a minority of the Jewish people. Today most of the Jews are from Arab countries, but the Jews that predominate in the country are the Jews of Europe. Jews = the tribe of Judah, of if you know that the Pathans are from the tribe of Efraim? Soon the time will come and all of Israel will find, not only the Jews, and we will be close to 50 million!

Why do you need a DNA test? When people go out from Egipt they had different DNA, when they go out from Israel had more different DNA, when they go out from the other countries they were go (because were in war or something) they had different even more different DNA. So jewish can have whatever DNA, what's your problem? In fact, do you know jewish people have at least 3 diferent kinds of genotype? So if their family mixed their DNA with other since a lot of years, they can have even a rare DNA no seen before. Do you are a genetist or something? Do you have test to say who is jewish? Do you decide who is jewish because you found a gene that says how many "jew" or "muslim" or "evangelist" are you? Do you have a quimic reaccion that say who is jewish like a test pregnancy? Please, don't be such a Mengele.

The last Rabbi died in the middle of 19th century, after that they gradually forgot their identity as Jews. And when the fact was discovered after the opening-up that there used to be a Jewish community living in China for 1000 years they have actually been assimilated into the Han Chinese--losing their languages, Seismic appearances and most importantly, their Judaism faiths. They celebrate Lunar New Year but not Hanukah, they eat pork as we do but not the kosher food, and the only difference they knew about was that they do not eat blood vessels without knowing exactly why. Actually they were told that they are Jewish descendants and was then motivated to know about their Jewish identities. Honestly, I doubt deep about their motivation to move back. Is it truly because of their Zionist dreams and Judaism faiths, or simply because Israel is a more developed nation than China is? Though I believe the first factor does matter to some extent, but should they be, say Ethiopian descendants, would they consider the option to be move back? I am suspicious of this--especially when I heard their mutual greetings in Henan accent, which was very similar to me, in an expression unique to us--"Comrades, we have finally made joined our forces"

This is really a beautiful story and I think it has the potential for something more. Unfortunately, based on Zionist racial hatred, I fear these people will have a difficult time being accepted and assimilated. I must add that not all Jews are racist or Zionist and I believe those whose belief is Orthodox do have a very strong spiritual character and great compassion for others deep down. With that aside, this is still a beautiful story. Thanks for posting.

@Juggernaut788 Jews have been living in China since at least the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The Kaifeng Jewish community first arose sometime during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127). There is plenty of information on this. See 1) "Survival of the Chinese Jews" by Donald Leslie 2) "Mandarins, Jews and Missionaries" by Michael Pollak 3) "Jews in Old China" by Sidney Shapiro 4) "The Jews of Kaifeng" by Xu Xin , etc. These are only a few of the books and papers on the subject. Interesting reading.

Rarely foreigners have converted to Judaism and Jews were isolated in many places especially Europe. There is no surprise that without a distinct country, the Jews are confused to be part of the local populations to where their ancestors were exiled. Thanks for your fervent enlightenment.

Kaifeng-Chinese Jews are very close to ethnic Chinese or Chinese speaking muslims neighbors. Many of them integrate into muslim community, the rest are extremely hard to be distinguished from ethnic-Chinese. Local people used to call some Chinese Jews as "Blue Cap Muslims". Chinese Jews mension their ancestors as "Israeli", not "Jew". Nowdays Chinese Jews are either classified as "Han" (Ethnic-Chinese) or "Hui"(Chinese Speaking Muslim) depends on whether they practice islam

A Jew born in Canada would be Canadian by nationality. Their religion is Judaism, and possibly they could be ethnically Semitic as well. In this example you see Chinese Han who become Israeli (nationality) citizens. Learn about what nationality is please.

Persians and Jews were like brothers, going back to biblical times. In fact, a lot of the Persians who escape Iran, are friends with Jewish people and Israelis, today and they are not proud of what their government has become. A lot of them even reside in Israel now. Amazing what Islam has done to Iran. I hope you guys will be free one day.

Takes a lot of courage for these young people to leave their homes and come to Israel. I wish them lots of luck; we need all the good people here that we can get.
I'm proud I'm jewish and even more proud that i live in israel. G-d bless all the religions over the world

If a government is bad the people is bad? No, just the government and the people who chose and support his actions. If your words define who is parasite, then catholics are, because kill a whole continent when came from Europe. So, don't be such an ignorant, please.

I read about Kafeng Jewish, but from what I read they had stopped recognizing themselves as Jewish a long time ago and became a part of Chinese people. Anyway, nobody is going to stop them if they want to go back, just like nobody stopped them when they came to China.
Welcome My Chinese Brothers and Sisters! Shalom!
With inter marriage eastern jews are not going to look semitic anymore. That's natural & to be expected. Glad to see that their aliyah is accepted.
Torah rabah for posting this beautiful documentary about the return of the Remnant of 12 Tribes of Yisrael back home to Eretz Yisrael. The ending is truly very moving.
I find this very touching! I believe that any one who wishes to become a part of our religion is more than welcome. It just shows how powerful and influencial the religion is and how it can touch people of other ethnicities. Its pretty cool!! ^-^
I think this is a terrific video. I'm not Jewish but I really admire those in Israel who open their arms to those who want to be Jewish in their land of Israel.
I myself am Korean Chrisrian and having found out there's Chinese origin of jews in the mainland China is just unbelievable but at the same time it shows how Israel (in this context, Jews) accepts everyone regardless of gender nationality ethnicity... wow homecoming aliyah
My last EX BF was American Born Chinese. Chinese People are easy to absorb into other cultures because they contribute alot to the people around them. Also many Jews leave Europe for Shanghai because there is no anti semitism in China. But I am proud that Chinese people are becoming Jews. Your people will strengthen us because Chinese people are a great people and greatness have no Ethnicity or Skin Color.
Congratulations Shavei Israel, this is a wonderful struggle you managed despite all the criticisms and bareers of the immigration process. These people are enhancing the diversity and rainbow of the people of Israel. This does not exclude other tribes to do as well.
I`m touched to tears....almost. Very impressed as to how Hashem has His strong hand on us all... No matter what other Jews say about the Chinese Jews or Black Jews or French Canadian Jews. We are ALL coming Home to greet Messiah Yeshua who is on His way back to Yerushalayim! This time, as a conquering King...of the Universe. He will destroy Israel's enemies once and for all.
@austpers Like I said, Arabs or who you call "Palestinians' are treated like human beings. They are in the Israeli government. The ones in Gaza and West Bank, are unfortunately not, as they pose a threat to the Israeli civilians and mainly Jews. But you have to remember 20% of Israel are Arab and have full rights. In West Bank and Gaza they have their own governments and get lots of aid from Israel.
I htink it's wonderful that Kaifeng's Jews are making Aliyah, but I wonder ifit's right to "convert" them to Ashkenazi customs? They're being taught to eat, sing, dance and say Hashem's praises according to "modern orthodox" which is Ashkenazi-centered. The Kaifeng Jews are thought to have been Persian in origin, but they're not being taught Persian-Jewish customs. Being a Jew doesn't mean dressing in black and eating farfel.
Almost brought tears to my eyes.
Bizarre in some respects but also astonishing. Good luck and a happy future to them all.
"In April 1920, the Republic of China’s founding father and first president Sun Yat-sen wrote a letter in support of the Jewish resettlement of Palestine."

Whether or not these young men has any Jewish roots or choose to convert to Judaism its their choice. Same as few hundred years ago and WWII we welcome Jewish immigrants chose to stay in China, it only represents a needle in a haystack not the mainstream of China and Israel.

There is nothing surprising about Chinese Jews appearing just as there is nothing surprising about Chinese Muslims due to the Silk Road.
I am a Jew from the Arab country - Iran, now lives in Israel. The Khazars are descendants of the 10 lost tribes, and also the European Jews are a minority of the Jewish people. Today most of the Jews are from Arab countries, but the Jews that predominate in the country are the Jews of Europe. Jews = the tribe of Judah, of if you know that the Pathans are from the tribe of Efraim? Soon the time will come and all of Israel will find, not only the Jews, and we will be close to 50 million!

Why do you need a DNA test? When people go out from Egipt they had different DNA, when they go out from Israel had more different DNA, when they go out from the other countries they were go (because were in war or something) they had different even more different DNA. So jewish can have whatever DNA, what's your problem? In fact, do you know jewish people have at least 3 diferent kinds of genotype? So if their family mixed their DNA with other since a lot of years, they can have even a rare DNA no seen before. Do you are a genetist or something? Do you have test to say who is jewish? Do you decide who is jewish because you found a gene that says how many "jew" or "muslim" or "evangelist" are you? Do you have a quimic reaccion that say who is jewish like a test pregnancy? Please, don't be such a Mengele.

Something too amazing to imagine! Praise God! That's all I could say.
this documentary is amazing!!!
The last Rabbi died in the middle of 19th century, after that they gradually forgot their identity as Jews. And when the fact was discovered after the opening-up that there used to be a Jewish community living in China for 1000 years they have actually been assimilated into the Han Chinese--losing their languages, Seismic appearances and most importantly, their Judaism faiths. They celebrate Lunar New Year but not Hanukah, they eat pork as we do but not the kosher food, and the only difference they knew about was that they do not eat blood vessels without knowing exactly why. Actually they were told that they are Jewish descendants and was then motivated to know about their Jewish identities. Honestly, I doubt deep about their motivation to move back. Is it truly because of their Zionist dreams and Judaism faiths, or simply because Israel is a more developed nation than China is? Though I believe the first factor does matter to some extent, but should they be, say Ethiopian descendants, would they consider the option to be move back? I am suspicious of this--especially when I heard their mutual greetings in Henan accent, which was very similar to me, in an expression unique to us--"Comrades, we have finally made joined our forces"
Wow, It is realy amazing, The jews people is in all the bloods and races in the world. Thinking in my grandmother was from China and decided to live in Peru with her Father and brothers.
It doesn 't matter how you look like, but your heart is more important. Jewish and Chinese people are the greatest people all over the world. I love the Jews because they are the chosen people of God, and their descendants are all over the world, and in many races.
This is really a beautiful story and I think it has the potential for something more. Unfortunately, based on Zionist racial hatred, I fear these people will have a difficult time being accepted and assimilated. I must add that not all Jews are racist or Zionist and I believe those whose belief is Orthodox do have a very strong spiritual character and great compassion for others deep down. With that aside, this is still a beautiful story. Thanks for posting.
Judaism is a religion. Why do people act as if its a race. Jewish roots? what Jewish roots. Anyone can be a Jew and have no blood tie with the ancient Israelite. Only god knows
Brought tears to my eyes.
"conversion process??" Judaism is not a missionary religion, no converting unless requested .
is there any japanese jews?
Welcome home
Growing up, I was very frugal since I had little money. My Wasp friends called me a Jew. Is this the same?
I think this is wonderful. welcome home you guys!
i knew one of my friends was a jew from kaifeng, a chinese. of course back then we laughed at him even he was so seriously making the claim. that was late 70s and early 80s.. we were kids and didn't know better. honestly back then, the word jew didn't mean anything to us...
@Juggernaut788 Jews have been living in China since at least the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The Kaifeng Jewish community first arose sometime during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127). There is plenty of information on this. See 1) "Survival of the Chinese Jews" by Donald Leslie 2) "Mandarins, Jews and Missionaries" by Michael Pollak 3) "Jews in Old China" by Sidney Shapiro 4) "The Jews of Kaifeng" by Xu Xin , etc. These are only a few of the books and papers on the subject. Interesting reading.
There are Chinese Muslims too. So what?
This should be expanded in length - maybe to a feature or have at least a follow up.
Wo ai ni zhong guo. Welcome home brothers!!

@smukase dude, the jews that u see in antwerp are orthodox jews (haredim in hebrew=fearful people). like all 3 monotheist religions there are very religious people, moderate religious and even atheists. anyway, it's nice to hear a muslim man like u, who is willing to learn about jews without expressing any hatred. salaam dude, peace on earth inshaalla
Chinese and Jews are quite similar, old people. and face discrimination around the world, be killed in Europe and South East Asia, especially Germany and Indonesia. respect intelligent people than strength. And of course , the similar situation of Singapore and Israel
I saw a doc. about them, they are not pure Jews. They are descendants of mixed Jews and Chinese. BUT they look more Asian and grew up as Chinese. I guess the temptation to be God's chosen people are just hard to resist.

lol, this is ridiculous, chinese people saying they're going "home" to palestine. I don't think the term anti semitic applies anymore. modern jews are not semites.
@boliusb, The diaspora is responsible for all this confusion. I agree with you, the Jewish religion has preserved an ethnicity and a way of life. Rarely foreigners have converted to Judaism and Jews were isolated in many places especially Europe. There is no surprise that without a distinct country, the Jews are confused to be part of the local populations to where their ancestors were exiled. Thanks for your fervent enlightenment.
so inspiring, i see the ingathering right here! but in tiny baby steps, slow and steady or fast and furious, just get back to your land!!
@brabon1 Which bible is this you've read? This still doesn't make "Jewish" a nationality.
Kaifeng-Chinese Jews are very close to ethnic Chinese or Chinese speaking muslims neighbors. Many of them integrate into muslim community, the rest are extremely hard to be distinguished from ethnic-Chinese. Local people used to call some Chinese Jews as "Blue Cap Muslims". Chinese Jews mension their ancestors as "Israeli", not "Jew". Nowdays Chinese Jews are either classified as "Han" (Ethnic-Chinese) or "Hui"(Chinese Speaking Muslim) depends on whether they practice islam
Isaiah 49:12 Behold, these shall come from far; and, lo, these from the north and from the west, and these from the land of Sinim.

Interesting Yellow and Jew mixed
@austpers Actually, this is not true. Egypt is not a collaborator. If anything, the people living in Gaza are pons for Egypt and the people living in the West Bank are pons for Jordan. Yassir Arafat was born where? Egypt.
I know that conversion makes one Jewish but how does the claim "returning to a land that their ancestors' land" fit it with the converts. This nationalist ideology is causing so much problem. Of course, I know there is a history behind this and how the Tulmud came into existence.
Just because their English needs a little work gives no ground to call them stupid. Jews are from all over the world, as Hashem (blessed be he) declared.
I asked before, which one of the twelve tribes of israel do these guys come from? please enlighten me from your book
I am officially confused.
@boliusb Are you sure they (European converts) are still the original Jews? "Genetics studies show common heritage and israelite origin" ---Please give me more proof on that--- But even if they did have those "genetics and heritage", they are still mixed with European blood. So they are mixed Jews?
同志们!胜利会师啦! victory for meeting up our units (in Israel) sadly, they still use communist language from Soviet Union.

@austpers Actually let me correct myself. Some of the people living in West Bank and Gaza DO have Israeli citizenship.
never heard of it. is that near Tibet?
Chinese should make friend with Israel rather than the dangerous muslim... Look how Israelis fought the entire Arab world, for the land for the soil given by their GOD, I sincerely respect them
man that cool... i didn't knew there is Chinese Jews... welcome to Israel and i wish to you good luck in everything you will do.
interesting, where can I apply for immigrantion to Israeli
@gigidimoobert69 No, Jews are NOT a nationality. You seem to be confused about ethnicity, religion and nationality. Nationality is tied to your nation/state. A Jew born in Canada would be Canadian by nationality. Their religion is Judaism, and possibly they could be ethnically Semitic as well. In this example you see Chinese Han who become Israeli (nationality) citizens. Learn about what nationality is please.
It would seem that Chinese Jews are more honored that African Jews.
So? Not all Jews look the same. You think Chinese Jews can't be accepted but there is so many Black Ethiopian Jews in Israel
@MsArabidopsis, Judaism is not a race but the Jews are a ethnoreligious group. People who convert to Judaism assimilate with Jews but this is so rare that the Jews have preserved their genetic origins as a western Semitic ethnic group.
Jer 23:7-8 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that they shall no more say, The Lord liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; 8 But, The Lord liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.
Yes I know. That's the racism going on in Israel right now. Dark skinned Ethiopian Jews who went to Israel are now suffering because they are not "the ideal jew" if you may. It is sad.
PLEASE go to your home forever. We Han Chinese are not subordinate to Jewish, and we are also great people. When I heard those guys with possibly 1/10,000 jewish kinship feel so happy to claim Israel is their home, I really get disgusted. All you guys can believe that if they are told they were actually from some poor or so called not intelligent races, they will claim:" WTF, I am Chinese!"
amazing , He ( God ) has truly gathered all of Israel back to its Land !
...coming from the fellow who didn't even remotely understand my prior comment. I said these people are not ethnically Jewish and are Han Chinese. What was your response? "These people are not ethnically Jewish. They are probably >95% Han Chinese." If you can't see why such a response would be so utterly idiotic, you need to take my advice about learning English.
How absurd, where is their mtdna proving that they are from ancient Israel?????
That's the best logo for israel... well done. I'm going to past this everywhere... Good Job Bro.

@minase0906 why do jewish ppl have german names?
@austpers I see you're also from Iran. Did you know that prior to 1979, before the Islamic revolution hit Iran, Israel and Iran had very close ties? Persians and Jews were like brothers, going back to biblical times. In fact, a lot of the Persians who escape Iran, are friends with Jewish people and Israelis, today and they are not proud of what their government has become. A lot of them even reside in Israel now. Amazing what Islam has done to Iran. I hope you guys will be free one day.
