and shared values. I even commend your mentioning of how Jewish people supporting each other. However, I am not seeing the trend here, and I am uncomfortable reading your previous post towards another poster. I knew many Jewish people, from all over the world, and some of them were from Ukrine and Russia. By the logic or view presented here sometimes, Jewish people from South Africa, Isreal, and America, have all the reason to look down upon them, no matter you pick their habits, manners, things they did to stay. Surprisingly, I don't see those negativities, and I only saw sincere help offered by those more fortunate or successful ones.

I have been mistaken for ethnical groups all over the places, but Mainland. I wouldn't feel insulted necessarily. Let's be honest here, even ourselves, we are always somewhat biased towards different people from various background or race. It's our duty to educate people, and help people understand Chinese people and culture. Some of them are ignorant and biased, some of them are simply not very informed. Action weighs more than thousands of words. Maybe it would be a good start to respect and at least tolerate fellow chinese a little bit more, even though you consider his/her words/actions very very wrong. ON the end, nobody is perfect, and our own judgement could very well be misguided. Just my 2 humble cents.
