All foreigners in Soviet Union today are undesirabe, though in varying degrees. Even Communists from Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, or Poland are not considered 100 per cent proof: for all one knows, they may some day go abroad and change their minds. The new cult, "pride in being a Soviet citizen," is more universally touted than ever before. All contact with bourgeois civilization or with people from bourgeois countries is evil. At a public lecture on Palestine, a Jew in the audience asked whether he could go to Palestine.
