Are Japanese People Actually Jewish?

Here’s a clip from a documentary that investigates the numerous similarities between Japanese culture and Jewish culture which lead some to believe that one of the lost tribes of Israel may have settled in ancient Japan:

The full story of this issue can be found over at Oniazuma’s blog!

Do you think it's possible that Jews settled in ancient Japan?

Is this really matters?

Observer

If you knew anything about Israel and its role in governments around the world… yes, it does matter.

sod

can’t really see the japanese caring that much after all they seem to have lost ‘god’ from the culture.hope it doesn’t turn into another excuse for interference in politics of another counrty to benefit israel like in amereica

erika88

I’m glad the majority of us don’t believe in the western “God”. It would be kind of cool if there were some odd connections in Japanese culture to Judaism…though it would be hardly unusual; we were influenced quite a bit by the Portugese as well and the foundations of our culture comes from China.

china? That’s new to me.

The Overthinker

Not to anyone else….

SSgt_erstad

I would not say the Japanese “lost” anything, they gained rational and logical thinking in escaping the medieval mindset of religious indoctrination.

The Overthinker

Oni-azuma’s blog has a link to a PBS page on the issue. I haven’t read the PBS page yet, but at the top of it, I found this:
—————
Daber: in Hebrew, to speak.
Daberu: Japanese for chatting.
Goi: a non-Hebrew or foreigner.
Gai’Jeen: prefix for a foreigner, a non-Japanese.
Kor: cold in Hebrew.
Koru: to freeze in Japanese.
Knesset: Parliament in Hebrew.
Kensei: Constitutional government in Japanese.
—————-
“Daberu”? Is this some kind of dialect for “shaberu”?
I’ll skip lightly over the spelling of “gaijin” and just note that, like “kensei” it is a contracted word made up of kanji that had their sounds set before the word. And hey, there are many words in Japan that sound like “kensei” – one, 賢聖, means “wise men and saints”. Okay, you could say that the word “gaijin” itself dates from the Heian period (where it also meant “enemy”) but since the link here is just the “gai” part, then the link becomes very thin indeed. And are we also supposed to think, since most Japanese on-yomi sounds came from China, that the Chinese are also a Lost Tribe?

“The first known king of Japan, who was named Osee, ruled around 730 BC” Huh? Osee? That can’t even be written as is in Japanese. This it seems was taken from the 19th-century work of one Scotsman, Nicholas McLeod, who published a book in 1878 in Nagasaki called “Epitome of the ancient history of Japan” (cover title: Japan and the Lost Tribes of Israel) and another in Kyoto under the title “Illustrations to the Epitome of the ancient history of Japan,” including illustrations to the guide book.
The thesis of these extraordinary books was that the holy class of Japan is descended from the Lost Tribes of Israel. He claimed that the first known king of Japan was called Osee and came to the throne in 730 B.C., identifying him with Hoshea, the last king of Israel, who died in 722 B.C.

Needless to say, the first king of Japan was not some guy called Osee in 730BC. The Kojiki and the other ancient records agree that the first ruler was Jinmu (I guess that means ex-President Jimmy Carter goes back in time to found Japan…), though no historian actually takes the Kojiki literally any more.

“Several artifacts in Japan have been traced to Assyrian and Jewish sources”
This is quite possible: the Shosoin Repository in Nara houses one of the world’s greatest collections of Silk Road art from a thousand or more years ago. Would not be surprised at all that some Middle Eastern stuff got there.

Here’s some more nonsense from PBS (those Americans who pay for this, I feel your pain): “Among the Samurai sect, there is a tradition that their ancient ancestors came to Japan from western Asia around 660 BC.The name ‘Samurai’ recalls ‘Samaria’. And to which tribe do the Japanese belong? There are those who claim that the Mikado, the Japanese emperor, is a descendant of the Hebrew tribe of Gad. ‘Mikado’ recalls the Hebrew word for ‘his majesty the king,’ ‘Malchuto’.”

Uh, nope. 660BC is the mythical date of Japan’s founding by Jinmu – nothing about arriving out of West Asia. The name “samurai” recalls Samuel too – is Samuel L. Jackson not just a kick-arse Jedi but destined to go back in time (probably with Jimmy) to found the order of knights (ahem ahem) that Lucas based the Jedi (in part) on? That would be irony.

Here’s a long site on the idea:
http://www.biblemysteries.com/library/tribesjapan.htm
Note that when Alternative History sites say things like “scholars say” they are generally very reluctant to say exactly who these scholars are, what they said, and when they said it. Instead, like this site, they gather a whole bunch of stuff that sorta looks the same, and conclude that it IS the same.

Now, given the fact that there was trade etc all along Asia, some Jewish ideas and artifacts may have influenced Japanese art and culture, probably indirectly via China. But to claim that the Japanese are a Lost Tribe is just a little bit too much to swallow….

Aki

Hahaha, PBS seems to be as credible as NYT.
hoihoi

to take.. toru
to write…kaku
to live ..sumu
to purify..harau harah
to be destroyed…horebu horobu
there are more than 500 words

there are more than 100 words kun-yomi words which are same meaning and same syllables in bebrew

TheTool

As a native Hebrew speaker let me share the real words in Hebrew:

to write:’Lichtov’
To take: ‘Lakachat’
To Live: ‘Lichyot’
To purify: ‘Letaher’
To be destroyed ‘Neheras’or’Neherav’

Any similarities to Japanease???

The video is so wrong in details:
The closest lake to Jerusalem (the only lake in Israel) is about 100 miles away from it.

tony

the hebrew words that you are comparing to japanese

are too much modern! its after aliezer ben-yehuda rebuilted hebrew…
if you compare it with ancient hebrew you will see it matches…
Noa

It’s not about modern, modern and anciet hebrew are based of roughly the same core vocabulary, however, this guy didn’t think far enough, the words that sound like the japanese ones simply aren’t as popular, but they exist. I speak hebrew too.

Kaku – may be “Ktov” which means write (as an order)
Toru – “Tol” means take (as an order)
sumu – not sure what parralels this, neshom means breath (order again)
harau hara – no idea what that can be like. Maybe “Tahara” which means purity.
Horebu – Hurba means a ruin. Lehariv means to ruin.

hoihoi

to The Overthinker
gaijin is a just short term of gaikokujin.

> there are many words in Japan that sound like “kensei” – one, 賢聖, means “wise men and saints

no Japanese uses such word.

>“The first known king of Japan, who was named Osee

who is he?

I think they came to Japan by way of korea peninsula.

The Overthinker

“no Japanese uses such word”

Then be sure to tell the editors of the Kojien dictionary.
http://sleepytako.blogspot.com David

Gaijin and gaikokujin have separate etymologies.
Virgil

Osei was said to be the first king of Japan. Ironically, Hosea was the last king of Israel before they were exiled. Coincidence?

Hello all. I have a background in Japanese culture and history and have been very interested in this subject.

Im new to this conversation but would like to chime in from time to time.

http://www.equinoxio.org/author/julian Julián Ortega Martínez

I agree with The Overthinker. They do believe they’re the “chosen race” and will do anything to ‘persuade’ anyone of it.
mpanzera

In case anyone is wondering about Overthinker’s question, the dictionary has the following entries for “daberu” and “shaberu”:

駄弁る【だべる】 (v5r,vi) to jabber; to chatter; to chat with

喋る【しゃべる】 (v5r,vi) (uk) to talk; to chat; to chatter

Aki

Daberu (駄弁る) is not so old word. That verb was made from a noun, 駄弁 (daben), after the Meiji Restoration.

Although I think that the PBS’s article is just a crap, the links that hoihoi provide here and Oniazuma’s blog are really interesting.

The Overthinker

Well well. So PBS actually got something right. Sort of – the link with Hebrew ain’t even in the ballpark…

Aryeh

Linguistically there are many parallels to other languages. However, combined with other parallels and a match can be found (this is how we in Anthropology trace migratory patterns within sub saharan Africa in order to trace lineage, trade, influence, etc.

While trade can cross pollonate linguistic phrases, artifacts, coinage, etc. Institutions as well can be transfered and many times, larger trade groups establish settlements. Remember this is a non-European paradigm. Europeans tend to maintain residency in their area prior to the modern age. But traditionally all cultures tended to have large migrations in following trade routes.

Kaifeng in China has a documented Jewish settlement over 1000 years old. Torah and Megilah of Esther scrolls were kept in its Shul, and Chinese government documents verify the dates of residency there. However, people can accept Blonde hair blue eyed Jews but not asian ones. It is outside of a paradigm. Like Ethiopian Christians…who have a longer chain of unbroken observance than the Catholic Church and yet the latter is seen as more “legitimate”. Interesting.

Finally the pieces that made it interesting for me are not the ones non Jews will really understand, but Jews will. Tzit Tzit and Teffelin. Shinto Priests and the legendary Tengu both have Tonkin….Teffelin in appearance and use. No other culture has these types of phylactaries in use, even those surrounding the Jewish settlements throughout the centuries (Central Asia to Europe, Tunisia, Morocco, etc.). The Tzit Tzit on the end of the Shinto robe is another indicator when combined with the other aspects.

And remember, within populations the exponential increase. Even if 10 families were in Japan 1500 years ago. By doubling their population every 20 years (mean child bearing age in modern times) the genetic trace will be within over a million people within an island nation.

J-ude

Hmm, it’s either that or the Japanese simply copied some traditions from some foreigners, but that’s highly impossible right? *rolls eyes*

Even the Portuguese, who simply traded with Japan, have currently over 400 words that have been borrowed into Japanese, the most common being ‘arigato’. In some towns, a festival is thrown on June 13th, same as Saint Anthony’s, does that make these people long lost Portuguese? Let’s also ignore the fact that there are thousands of Mandarin/Cantonese words and uh, a large portion of kanji, and the kimono, and farming attire, etc., and the fact that many Japanese look like Malaysian islanders rather than Je-wish people.

Nothing to see here, just the ol’ once a year, “We’re actually white, not asian!”

http://eleclutier.blogspot.com Elec

The “arigato” coming from “obrigado” thing is actually nothing more than a coincidence and is certainly not true.

The evidence is compelling.

I was sceptical at first, but now I have no doubt in my mind.

I believe the Japanese are Jews.
Luke

Jewish?

I don’t think so. The Jews come from the family of Judah. They are not part of the lost 10 tribes. But there are many other tribes of Israel that are gone. I do think it’s one of the tribes.
Mitch

The Japanese are great imitators and adopters. Japanese people came from China. In all probably they adopted some rituals from some lost Israel tribe, but are not themselves jewish.

none

Japanese people didn’t come from china maybe part of it but not all. Japanese mainstream culture is not chinese either.

The Overthinker

While it is not Chinese, there are of course Chinese influences, from architecture to Zen.

There are various schools of thought about where “the Japanese” came from. An influx through the Korean peninsula coupled with an earlier influx from southern or central China is one prominent theory. This is reflected in the so-called “Jomon faces” and “Yayoi faces,” the former being wider and squarer, the latter being longer and slimmer. Interestingly, the Yayoi face was the ideal of beauty in the Edo period (check out Utagawa’s prints) while currently the Jomon face (being rounder and cuter) is more popular, apparently.

none

Come on are you saying all Yayoi people had wide and square faces? If so then you are offending people where Yayoi people came from in making such ignorant and direct assumptions.
The Overthinker

I am just paraphrasing a Japanese documentary on the subject I saw a few years back.

See this page:

Japanese have many influences simular to Americans. You can not state that Americans come from Europe so there are no Africans here. Same with Japan. The language is Ural Altaic which came from the Ural Mountains (Russia) through Monglolia, Korea, and into Japan. Aside from the Kanji writen letters, Japanese language is NOTHING like Chinese. Ural Altaic is also used in Finland. So Finnish is closer in structure, many words, and consonant vowel combinations to Japanese than Chinese is.

I think the evidence in this video is pretty compelling that there may have been some Jewish settlers, and by that thought, probably some Jewish blood that probably ended up in Japan. Some of the cultural and linguistic similarities (the kana, the middle eastern paintings for that one festival) that seem pretty hard to not at least come to a conclusion that there is a possibility that Jewish people settled in Japan at some point in the past.

I’m quite shocked by the number of people who outright refuse to see it as a possibility. Of course it could all be something else, but to flat our write off the idea is absurd.

The Overthinker

The idea is not impossible, but you need to first consider and dismiss more likely scenarios before you get to the unlikely ones (Occam’s Razor idea):

1: It’s all coincidence.
Hard to prove this one way or the other, but it’s probably the default stance.

2: There was influence, but it was indirect.
As I noted, this is quite possible, and doesn’t require a huge leap of faith.

3: Jewish people from the Middle East actually settled in Japan.
This requires some pretty impressive proof, that not only the ideas and culture arrived, but so did the people.

4: A Lost Tribe of Israel founded Japan.
This is the extremist position, and is going to require some pretty damned amazing proof.

Karisu

Well, I agree, that by pure luck some of this could be coincidence or just some indirect influence that got passed along, but my shock stems from the poll question; “Do you think it’s possible that Jews settled in ancient Japan?”

The question asks if it’s possibly, yet more than half of the people responding can’t imagine this possibility. That’s what I’m finding so hard to swallow.

http://mushi-kun.tumblr.com bug

Heh. This is probably because most who answered the question interpreted it in a way that would ensure that a difference in opinion would arise. While I know that anything’s possible, and I agree that the theory may have some element of truth, I interpret the question in this context to mean to ask, “Do you think that the theory is a rational explanation for these similarities, given the evidence?”

Mitch

Furthermore, the comment in the video about the jewish guy who came to collect DNA samples…and then nothing further was mentioned of it. If there were a blood connection that would have made front page news in most countries.

I still say they adopted it.

Think about it..Buddhism is from India and yet it is the religion in south east asia, china and to a large degree Japan…and are they all Indian? No. Are people scrambling around trying to identify japanese as some long forgotten indian tribe? No.

They adopted buddhism from india.

The cynic in me says that some japanese people would love to have some real connection with jewish people since Japan erroneously believes that jews rule the world.
Sensorium

It is more probable that any Jews in Japan, pre-European contact, were of Chinese extraction. There has been a universally recognized Jewish presence in China for a very, very long time.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_China

But it must be admitted that even though a Jewish connection in Japan is possible, it is hardly unusual for a migrant group to cause wide-ranging change. The Roma of Europe (gypsies) are known now to be migrants from India, for example.

I think the most important aspect of this situation, both as an American and a person with some Hebrew heritage, has got to be in allowing us to recognize the interconnectedness of history. In school, I was taught world history in a haphazard, geographic way, downplaying inter-cultural exchange. It probably never occurs to many people that, say, Vedic Indian culture influenced other civilizations, let alone that they even exist in the same chronology.

The Overthinker

One of the best classes I took as a undergrad was on this very subject – the interconnectiveness of Asian cultures, and how there are things in Japan that can trace their ancestry back to even Europe (and I mean long before the early modern era). Things like the connection between Roman Empire folding chairs and the chairs used in Buddhist temples, or the connection between the poses of Fuujin (IIRC) in Japan and Hercules in Helenic art. That’s why I am perfectly prepared to believe there is some influence, in terms of art and culture. Though probably not as much as some theories have….

TP

My take: there is a possibility of some sense of Aryanism, Semitic-style, in that video. The last thing I wanted to hear is the Japanese saying, “Oh, we’re the chosen people!” and chose to be high-and-mighty about being Asian, and their relationship with her neighbours.

This kind of video, while opening up an avenue for a plausible theory (that the Japanese are related to, somewhat, the Jews), also exposes the hidden dangers of interpreting the message wrongly. It’s interesting, yes, but as I said, there are movements in Israel that wishes to move these “lost” tribes to back Israel.

The last thing to add fuel to an already fired-up Israeli-Palestinian conflict, is more influx of “lost Jews” by way of “settlements.”

The Overthinker

Ideas that the Japanese have Jewish/Israeli roots and/or have Aryan blood were first started, I believe, by early Westerners in Japan. For example, William Griffis devotes an entire chapter of one of his books to his idea that the reason the Japanese succeeded in modernization where the Chinese and Koreans did not was due to the Aryan blood in their veins, courtesy of the Ainu.

Two items:

1. Japanese do have two distinct and documented traces to Areas farther afield than the Mediteranean. Their language is Ural-Altaic, not Chinese in origin. Meaning, in pronunciation Japanese is closer to Finnish than Chinese. Migratory patterns 2 to 3 thousand years ago moved through Mongolia, Korea, and into Japan bringing the language with it. And of course the Ainu are Caucasian in appearance and genetics. Japan is not so distant as Europeans tend to believe. In Roman and Greek times movement from the Mediteranian and Europe was easier than during the Middle Ages and up to modern times.

2. Kaifeng China has a shul (synagogue..Greek term so I don’t like to use it.) that is 1500 years old. There is an inscription there thanking the Jews (Ivrit) for settling there and establishing a silk production facility. The shul has Hebrew scrolls, Torah, and Megillah of Esther. At the beginning of this century no one could be found in Kaifeng that could read Hebrew, but they kept the scrolls nonetheless. And to this day many in Kaifeng do not eat pork (very strange for Chinese!)

So it is extremely easy to see how Jews could migrate into Japan. There are many other parallels. Modern Westerners tend to accept “Ashkenazic” looking Jews all too easily (with detrament to Israel from the waves of so called lost Russian Jews that are really nothing of the kind in many cases, yet have a hard time with Asian looking ones. Jews of two thousand years ago looked like modern Arabs, yet over time, adaptation and assimilation can bring physical characteristics simular to the area….Caucasian or Asian. No one would dare think of believing that Einstein, Rabbi Schneerson, or Frued were not Jewish because they looked so European, and Germany is sooo distant from Israel. Yet we accept that easily. But Asian looking…..”Funny, they don’t look Jewish.”

And I am still looking into it. But the “Cohen Gene” was detected in Japan, but I will not comment until I can get the article with the information.

The Overthinker

“And of course the Ainu are Caucasian in appearance and genetics.”
What is your source for this?

ainu are genetically caucasian. this is established and accepted fact. please read:

The Overthinker

You mean read Wikipedia where it says “Many early investigators proposed a Caucasian ancestry, although recent DNA tests have found no traces of Caucasian ancestry”?

before Japan make korean colony, Korean always memorize Dangung period’s age and ancestor. But when japan administered korea, Japanese upper person said japan have to change korea’s history because Korean nation have pride as a descendant from Dangun. So that period, Japan brunt most of korea’s history books. only the number of books that is about Dangun(korea’s ancestor) is over 200000. Nowadays, by historical material it is more making clear and clear the Fact korea is lost tribe of Israle (Dan). God pursuit True. Not fake. even though Japan took out Most of Korea’s material and make history dostortion. but God will judge them. Korean go missionary Work most many in the world (according to Rate-Korea1, as the number of people-USA 1, Korea2) how about Japan? only 1~2% japanese are christain, There was holoy spirit in Korean peninsula in 1907. God chosen Korean nation. Korean got suffering For 100 years currently. Japan never accept their fault that They Genocided so many Korean even Japan was colony of Korea for 1500 years in the past.

“Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy. You will again have compassion on us; you will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea.” Micah 7:18-19

“Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.” “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him.Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt. The servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded. “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.’ “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. When the other servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed and went and told their master everything that had happened. “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”

Never knew the day would come, an Asian Jew?

Han-
There are Asian Jews.
I for one am an Asian Jew (Indian). A mix.
My father being a typical American Jew with Ashkenazi (European Jewish) decent.
My Mother is a pure Indian Jew, from Ahmadabad, of the Bnei Israel. There was a few large Indian Jewish communities in India for ages now… It has gotten smaller, because most of the Indian Jews have left for Israel. I was born, and raised here, in the US. A lot of Americans, American Jews (that have easily assimilated into American culture), foreigners, people who do not have such a knowledge on Judaism, and the Jewish people find it shocking to hear of an Indian Jew, or simply put it an Asian Jew.
I can tell you that there are most defiantly Asian Jews out there (a lot of them over the years, assimilating into their Asian brethren’s culture and moving on… But, now a lot of young Asian Jews are rediscovering their Jewish heritage). The known Asian Jews (that I know of, and read about) consist of Chinese, Indians (that of which I have a heritage), Burmese, and Thai.
I am very interested in this topic about Japanese and Jews.
I have read many articles about such, and seen many videos.
There just isn’t enough research to prove so.. Though it seems so close to being true. I am waiting for the day to when this topic is disclosed as either; Fact, or Fiction!

Although people commonly associate Japanese with eating fish, many of them also eat PORK. They even have their own kind of pig. I am American Jew (by birth, not current faith), but am married to a Japanese, and I also live in Japan. I see nothing that Jews and Japanese have in common. This video is bull. Actually, if you called my wife or 95% of the Japanese I know Jews, they would be highly offended. Jews are not very popular in Japan.

Similarity Between the Biblical Genealogy and Japanese Mythology

see at http://www5.ocn.ne.jp/~magi9/isracame.files/israca18.gif

let’s see
the lost tribes said to be walking around one and an half year
i try to calculate ( not in exact way )
let’s us said that in a 3 second a human can walk for 2 metres
2 metres multiply with 20 so we get 40 metres in one minute
then multiply again with 60 so we got 2400 metres for 1 hour
then we multiply again with 6 ( but why six? cause people in israel work in 6 days and on the seventh day they rest , in 6 days God created earth and on the seventh day, He rest)
because in every sunday they don’t walk
so we calculate 365 + 187 – 78(many of sundays) = 474 days
calculate the result with 474 days and we got 6825600 metres = 6825.6 km

the lost tribes were taken to a assyria near the black sea
if we count the distance between the black sea and japan
we got approximately 6600 km

this is only my theories
i’m not a professional

don’t forget ephraim is a mix between jews and egypt
so they have a different look with the other tribes
they also have gone for a long time, i think there’s a possibilty of assimilation between jews culture, asian culture and egyptian culture
ephraim also said to worship baal
and Shinto god “Susanoh” resembles Baal in several aspects
the bible also said that the ephraim will forget about his tradition

i’m here not to claim japanese are jews
but there’s a big percentage

explanation
Jason

Japanes are an ancient form of judaism. From jove maybe. Whites dont like the truth of judaism. White jews or christians. Jacob made races and each race was assigned a planet the father the sun was black man. The last son white man was the moon. Joseph implies this in his dream. Japanese and arabic are similar jinn in arabic for whiteman and gai jin in japanese. Whites hate this history and even dynamite tombs in egypt that proove this. They are lycaon the wolf
Jason

Someone commented gai jin means enemy. Fascinating in muslim quran jinn were enemy. Does japanese myth mention a bad person like as wolf. That was covered. Could not speak or kicked out of society for a crime against the sun god. Read lycaons revels. Asante are remnant of the sun god. Whites enslaved them to america also we consider them devil
Jason

White jews hate the reality and truth. Also explains why whites made emperor deny he was a god. Since it had nothing to do with the war. Sure he was a god. Just not the one to be whorshipped. When japanese bow it is in quran. God told all races to bow to black man. All did but white man. Its why the white man is in power and has nuke he, is enemy to all life. He is a fun guy though. But just an enemy that cant be trusted
Jason

I just read on time.com about the convert to judaism. Circumcison is not done in japan which may refer to the fact that they rebelled along with the other races because the sun gods were opressive at all the wrong times. See rehoboam. But if white jews seek wholesale conversion by japanese it will be warped. They will never accept shinto mythology which is the part of judaism white jews hide because of their true low rank. Black man is king of jews. The sun god birthed all the races just as sun birthed all the planets in our solar system. They will always deny it. They are the enemy
Jason

Its not just japanese. Israel was 4 main races in 3 sub groups. The leader may be the chams of vietnam who also have jewish customs. The 3 original sub groups divided even further. But japanese seem to have been isolated enough to maintain an identity. They may have been the front men for the chams until they were all cut off. Races were created by the sun. The darker being more related to the sun but also suffered much because the objective of the black man was to create blonde and blue eyes. Thus each lighter stage was showered with praise. And material wealth. He created white race to either as weapon against black black since he was brown blac, to get into space use white as work horse cause his arrogance leads to high aspirations thus facilitate motion with the whiteman as thrust.
