does your average japan person dislike

your average china person? and vice versa?

I ask this as an anglo American with no real sence of the history between the 2 countries..

I know china did'nt like some ww2 stuff japan pulled, and that tawian is a big hot spot, and that china are commies...but besides all of that..are there other instances in the past that have casued friction between the 2 peoples....

is this like a jewish / palistinian grudge match that has been going on for thousands of years?

From my experience they don't have many problems on an individual basis, but my experience is more with higher educated people of both sides.

china are commies

Not really. The ruling party is only nominally communist.

Thousands of years? Less than a hundred years, I think. For most of the time most of the Jews lived in diaspora without much consideration of leaving for Palestine/Israel.

well ya dont ask jarvis to proof intellectualy, or even logical, why communism failed. china utilizes so called "socialism", and that's pretty much not the same. indeed, the current label (i read it in a 15 year old book) is socio-economic sphere. i assume from that, that operations are determined if they are "economic"

and tawian is indeed a "hot-spot": if you buy a digital camera, the memory is most likley "made in taiwan". you need a digital camera...come on, you may have a better life, and you support taiwan as well

That Palestine derives from Phillistine is no news, but you wrote

Which is quite exaggerated, since the vast majority of Jews didn't live (or considered moving) there during the last 2000 years.

Edit:
What's more, for most of the time the "Palestinians" didn't have much say in Palestine.

yaya. about japanese person? no easy answer, as there are companies like casio/fuji, who manufacture in china.

for them, this does not read too canny.

fuji/casio aren't "jewish/palistine commies" :sorry:. now, if you have a problem with those, let us know...but please tell explicitly.

china vs. japan does not quest relating to palistines. and, when the invasion occured, china was not marxistic/socialistic. so, leave it out talking about china vs. japan.

you need three different threads, probably.

"jews/palistines"
"marxism/commies"
"japan vs. china"

or even another one:

"the average chinese / japanese you personally know". this requires to know at least 5/10 of those, to make assumption about average.
