Having been in Hong Kong and Japan, they do seem to like Jewish people because we are “also” an ancient people.
I get credibility in Hong Kong just by being Jewish; probably the only place in the world.
Try going to India. Jews are considered mythical “Super Warriors” who are also Doctors in their spare time and make millions and can kick Islamist asses.
India has a weird funky hero worship complex of the Jews. Israel is considered a “wunder” country by most non Islamist Indians.
Just mention any military hardware India is making, and if you sound dubious, the Indian person will helpfully mention “it has Israeli technology” as if that statement SHOULD END all discussion
I was like “Dude! American military technology is better!!!”
