Trump against foreign students: A self-defeating move
AS PART of its proclaimed anti-Semitic policies, Nazi Germany took steps to “cleanse” its institutions of higher revolution from Jewish students and professors in the 1930s.
Many of these Jewish academicians and scientists – including theoretical physicist and Nobel laureate Albert Einstein – had no choice but to leave Germany and to emigrate to countries that were willing to accept them, including the US where they landed in top positions in the country’s most prestigious universities, including Harvard.
In fact, some of these Jewish immigrants ended up working for the so-called Manhattan Project, to develop the atomic bomb that helped the US and its allies defeat Nazi Germany and win World War II.
