But there is some indication that a brain drain was involved in this and they didnt realize the uproar that would happen. Im not sure whether thats true or not. but. as you well know. there is a substantially greater percentage of the Jews who are in high scientific positions than the percentage of Jews in the population. And it may be that doesnt sound very consistent in some ways. because when a man. a Jew scientist in Russia. applies for a visa. hes taken off his job. I was told that was done in order to stop other people from applying. I was told also that this was because they were afraid that if they wanted to go to Israel. they were no longer trustworthy.
Identified stereotypes
Jews are overrepresented in high scientific positions.
