Jews are forbidden their own schools and the teaching of Hebrew and Yiddish is severely retricted. Since the 1940s the world famous Hebrew and Yiddish theater has been almost completely closed down. Jews are the victims of strict quota systems in the universities and more advanced technical schools. They are forbidden to exercise any degree of cultural autonomy although other nationalities are permitted to do so. Many older Jews are being discharged from their jobs and young Jews are finding it much more difficult to secure suitable employment. In addition. police surveillance and harassment have risen markedly and a significant number of raids on Jewish homes have been conducted. Those seeking. to emigrate to Israel and other countries are particularly singled out and suffer many severe forms of discrimination and persecution. A tragic example of that oppression has been the case of Prof. Alexander Lerner.
