Mimi,
OK, so now we started with insults.
My grandmother was able to stay in her house, was not evacuated to the ghetto, was able to keep her business in the Kuczurmarerstrasse and did not have to wear the yellow star and all it took was a very heavy gold chain which she gave to a Czernowitzer official.
My father with his lofty, K.u.K principals would not do it, he kept on saying that his high position which I have no idea what it was, will save us.  Well it did not and we ended up in Transnitria where I lost my mother.  He was “el a fost un jidan prost fără creier”. (He was a stupid dirty Jew with no brains).

A good scientist can get a job in Berlin without having EU citizenship.
And how is a job in Berlin better than one in Israel?
Personally, I object to paying Bakshish.
I would pay it, if my life depended on it, or if it was for a worthy 
cause,
but not for other reasons. Your friend is your friend, but to me he is
"Un Jidan fara principe", who gives all of us a bad name.
