Ahh, yes a "journalist". Is he perhaps, the unbiased, superior egalitarian equal of the sterling American Drive-By-Media "journalists", or just your average Leftist hack non producer looking for the easier life on the dole in Israel, and typical of those "fleeing Russia?
Sadly (and I mean sadly, as there was a time when Radio Free Europe and Voice of America were anti Communist warriors), RFE and VA Enemedia propaganda is significantly worse than Soviet propaganda ever was.
In any case, Jews continue to flee Russia, as they have for many years. I have worked with quite a few in the IT area.
