Description:

A top-secret plan to create an "Israel in Asia" under Japanese control offered a safe haven in Asia for European Jewish refuges during WWII, in exchange for which their economic and technical skills would be put to work modernizing Manchuria. While the plan foundered in 1940, the lives of thousands of Jews were saved by the transit visas they had been given by the Japanese.
