.... is also dominated by people who emigrated from Brazil. It's a lovely kibbutz, located two kilometers east of Tzomet Megiddo.

Jewish Brazilians are really good people. They always help each other. They are reliable and honest. If you are a Brazilian oleh, like them, they never try to entrap you asking for a money loan and then - don't pay. They don't do this. They don't want to trouble you at ulpan, speaking Portuguese all the time with you; they are not invidious of your learning. That's why I love Brazilians abroad and that's why I never run away from them.

I was being ironical at my last comment, of course (I was talking about fake Zionists that go to Israel, for any suspected reasons) - BTW, Mr .Aranha, (it means spider) - he was an antisemitic. During Vargas regime, they refused visas for Hungarian children that perished at Shoah. There was a secret document stating Jewish refugees were "undesirable people" here in Brazil - on the other side of history, there was a great woman, Aracy de Carvalho GuimarĂ£es Rosa, who is a Righteous Among the Nations. She was wife to GuimarĂ£es Rosa.

I love Brazil and I love Brazilians.
I travel a great deal to Brazil. Yes, Rio can be dangerous -- but so can New York. It's a question of reasonable caution.
While I love Rio, and Sao Paulo, and Recife, I spend most of my time on business, in Santos and Itajai.
The cuisine, the people, the warmth and the friendliness are unsurpassed. Brazil is a wonderful country.

My father and mother arrived from the concentration camp , direct to Brazil , and the only condition to get into Brazil was a payment of $2000 by person . The Jewish Agency paid for everybody .
This was a pure business , and have nothing to do with antisemitism . I lived in Brazil for 27 years , and NEVER got any problem . I still have great Brazilians friends .
In Argentina , the story is totally different ..... they receive also Nazis AND Jewish . Yes , in Argentina you do have antisemitic people ....
