Answer:
Jewish history is very old and dynamic, tracing back to over 3,000 years.
A common theme in Jewish history has been the persecution that has been suffered by the Jewish people.
The Jewish people have often hold their ancestral homeland: Israel, but they have also been expelled from these lands several times.
Jewish history is also the history of the Jewish diaspora: for centuries, there have been Jews living all over Europe and the Middle East, even in other areas.
Finally, Jewish history also includes the history of the Holocaust, the genocide in which over 5 million Jews were killed during the Second World War.
For these reasons above, Jewish history shapes Jewish culture. It makes the Jewish people cohesive and protective of their own people, because of all the suffering they have been through.
The Chinese decided to enter the Korean War on November 25-26, 1950. This was an enormous shock to the American forces, as well as to the United Nations. The United States, and in particular U.S. Gen. Douglas MacArthur, believed that the Chinese would not openly enter the war.

Re: Umbra Applied Technologies Group, Inc.
2018 Chairman’s Letter
(UATG:PK) Year 2018
Chairman's Letter
“UAT Group and its subsidiaries, operate with the understanding that what we do matters and as such our decisions bear consequences.”
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
First, I would like to wish everyone a prosperous New Year and I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.
As the Chief Executive of a publicly traded company I am the fiduciary for all shareholders, many of whom have invested in UAT Group based on long-term goals such as retirement or to pay for a childs higher education. As such, I advocate and otherwise direct corporate governance practices that are in keeping with long-term value creation for our shareholders and clients. Last year I asked my executive team to help me outline a new strategic frame-work for long-term value creation that could be completed within the year. I am pleased to report that we have been successful in our execution and were so against significant odds.
Over the course of the past 12 months, many of the assumptions on which our plans were based, including low interest rates on capital and an expectation for continued globalization, have failed to sustain despite indicators to the contrary. With U.S. reflation, increasing rates, renewed growth, the increasing turbulence in Asia as a catalyst to geopolitical tensions, the prospective withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union reshaping Europe and the United States undergoing a fundamental reformation of long held fiscal strategies; the economic environment has been and remains quite volatile. This does not mean that this company or the market at large is expected to be impacted negatively but it is a factor when crafting a long-term execution strategy.
