I've seen a lot of this where I live in NYC metro area. Soviet Jews who came here thinking they would become rich. Some did become rich, many ended up doing menial work, or going on welfare. The saddest part of the story is that many are highly educated. Despite the 'repression' many of the these Jews were professionals in the former USSR. Engineers, doctors, college professors, etc. In the US many ended up driving cabs, working as janitors, etc.

I was one of those olim who came to Israel in 1991 from the Soviet Union at age of 13 . Left Israel for US in 2003. About 40% of the soviet Jewish immigrants who came to Israel in the 70ies 80ies and 90ies left Israel for the West. Especially those who came as kids or teenagers. The majority are now in Canada, Australia , New Zealand and the U.S. Israel was not prepared and therefore many ended up not being able to realize themselves , unlike in the United States eventually many soviet jews were able to develop and integrate and become very successful. Israel is just too small. The dreams are very limited.

Idk what's worse for Soviet Jews in 1991, staying in the USSR and witnessing its collapse and being stuck in completely new countries making the brutal and painstaking transition from communism to capitalism (during this time, crime soared/inflation was terrible/healthcare was decimated, but it did calm down in the 2000s); or moving to Israel and being forced to start over doing menial labor until you learn new skills/credentials in a country where your Soviet degrees/job skills are not necessarily accepted.

No instant gratification possible. What happened was what normally happens when you emigrate to a country and have no money and don't speak the language: namely: it will take time for you to get on your feet and you will have to make do with a lower status for some time. Later, things get better. Same happened in the US to most immigrants. Takes at least about a decade to get established. Tens of millions moved to the USA. And , for some time, they had to take any job. Then, later, things got better and they had a good life. In Israel now, the Soviet Jews are doing very well. It just that they did not become established overnight. It took them some time.

I went straight to the comments when I saw this title

[@MaksimLevinskyMusic]

What is this? the English subtitles, partly, at least, don't match what they're saying in Russian (i speak and understand russian), and it's particularly felt when the man speaks in Russian, where, who ever is responsible for the subtitles goes completely "off script". Why would the video's creators deliberately falsly translate what the russian speaking interviewees are saying? If you got an agenda to this video (which the video's creators do, obviously), if you got something to say, narrate it yourselves or find someone who actually says it, but don't put false and/or very inaccurate english translation subtitles, as a supposed translation of what they're saying, to better suit your needs, even if you think that it's what the interviewee actually meant, even if the renegade words in the subtitles make perfect sense, conceptually...it's not what the interviewee said in the video, and thus shouldn't be presented as such. It just makes the video more untrustworthy. Regardless of this discouraging outdated video (made almost 30 years ago, practically, at the beginning of the 1990's "Russian" Aliyah, when it was, generally, especially difficult), The Russian / (former) Soviet Aliyah (Repatriation) of about 1 million people (Majority of whom Jews, but with a considerable minority of non-jews with blood or marriage ties to Jews, i.e. mostly, children of jewish fathers, husbands and wives of Jews, and non jewish older parents), despite the (especially) initial hardships of it's absorbtion, assimilation and integration in israel, has actually been, and in fact, still is, one of the most successful, productive and contributing repatriations, in the 70+ years history of the modern country of Israel. Though, many, regretfully, indeed, did not find employment in their previous USSR professionss, still, many professionals from this Aliyah, who wanted it bad enough, worked their butts off to get it, learned the language well enough, and, yes, often, worked in menial labour, blue collar jobs, too, to support themselves and their families, like most of the others from their Aliyah, in the beginning, at least, AND who were resourceful, and studious, and MOTIVATED enough (and luck is probably also a factor, though much of our luck we create ourselves, i believe), eventually, DID get to work in their previously chosen professions, in israel, as well. Teachers, doctors, journalists, Artists, engeeniers, scientists, etc... The 1990's russian speaking Aliyah's contribution to israel in the fields of science, medicine, art, sports, culture... is very considerable. It's inluence is in all walks of israeli life. About a fifth of the population in israel, are either themselves from former USSR countries, or are israeli born children and grandchildren of those from the former USSR. And the Olim children, especially, and the children already born in israel, for the most part, assimilated, into israeli and hebrew society quite well. Though it's hardly all roses, all in all, israel has changed much for the better, because and thanks to the 1990's Aliyah of the soviet/russian jews.

This land has been the jewish/hebrew/israelite ( all synonyms) people's historic national home land, for more than 3,000 years. if there is any people that is native to this land, it is the jews. The longest continual phyisical presence in the land is also jewish, whether many or few, and even through out all the different occupations, after the destruction of the second jewish temple by the romans and the destruction of jerusalen and the Hashmonsim Kingdom, close to 2,000 years ago. As for "Invaders"...who ARE the actual invaders??? Are you aware of the origin of the names "palestine"/"palestinian"? Look up "Pleshet", from the hebrew word "polshim", which litrally means *invaders*. Do you know why the romans changed JUDEA's name to Palestina/palestine and under what circumstances? Also, though through religious conversion, one can become part of the jewish people and throughout the millennia, converts have indeed joined and assimilated into the base ethnic jewish people and contributed geneticslly to some degree, most genetic research done on jewish populations (including ashkenazi jews, to which a majority of soviet/russian jews belong), shows that *most* known and researched jewish populations today, including Ashkenazi jews, have definite genetic ties to the midfle east, and are gentically closer to each other, than to the people's that surounded them in their host countries. In short, The jews cannot be occupiers and invaders in their OWN homeland. They're not invaders but rarher repatriots, coming back home.

Regardless of this discouraging outdated video (made almost 30 years ago, practically, at the beginning of the 1990's "Russian" Aliyah, when it was, generally, especially difficult), The Russian / (former) Soviet Aliyah (Repatriation) of about 1 million people (Majority of whom Jews, but with a considerable minority of non-jews with blood or marriage ties to Jews, i.e. mostly, children of jewish fathers, husbands and wives of Jews, and non jewish older parents), despite the (especially) initial hardships of it's absorbtion, assimilation and integration in israel, has actually been, and in fact, still is, one of the most successful, productive and contributing repatriations, in the 70+ years history of the modern country of Israel. Though, many, regretfully, indeed, did not find employment in their previous USSR professionss, still, many professionals from this Aliyah, who wanted it bad enough, worked their butts off to get it, learned the language well enough, and, yes, often, worked in menial labour, blue collar jobs, too, to support themselves and their families, like most of the others from their Aliyah, in the beginning, at least, AND who were resourceful, and studious, and MOTIVATED enough (and luck is probably also a factor, though much of our luck we create ourselves, i believe), eventually, DID get to work in their previously chosen professions, in israel, as well. Teachers, doctors, journalists, Artists, engeeniers, scientists, etc... The 1990's russian speaking Aliyah's contribution to israel in the fields of science, medicine, art, sports, culture... is very considerable. It's inluence is in all walks of israeli life. About a fifth of the population in israel, are either themselves from former USSR countries, or are israeli born children and grandchildren of those from the former USSR. And the Olim children, especially, and the children already born in israel, for the most part, assimilated, into israeli and hebrew society quite well. Though it's hardly all roses, all in all, israel has changed much for the better, because and thanks to the 1990's Aliyah of the soviet/russian jews. Also, the English subtitles, partly, at least, don't match what they're saying in Russian (i speak and understand russian), and it's particularly felt when the man speaks in Russian, where, who ever is responsible for the subtitles goes completely "off script". Why would the video's creators deliberately falsly translate what the russian speaking interviewees are saying? If you got an agenda to this video (which the video's creators do, obviously), if you got something to say, narrate it yourselves or find someone who actually says it, but don't put false and/or very inaccurate english translation subtitles, as a supposed translation of what they're saying, to better suit your needs, even if you think that it's what the interviewee actually meant, even if the renegade words in the subtitles make perfect sense, conceptually...it's not what the interviewee said in the video, and thus shouldn't be presented as such.

@@syaschmidt7060 The three religions are invented in the 16th century. They are about 400 years or so and more than that, they have nothing to do with the middle east, they are created elswhere. the 3000 years is no more than an invented fairytale.

Moving to Israel is an option for any Jew but that doesn't guarantee a job or a better life. Perhaps people should look into consequences before making life changing decisions. Job qualifications, language, savings, all factor into moving to a different country.

No they need to become like Europe. More inclusive and more diverse.

I moved to a foreign country to live and work (China) and here I learned. If you aren't prepared to work 3x harder than normal. You won't make it. And without an education and real job skills you are useless. No one cares what happens to you and they owe you absolutely nothing. If you want something, work for it. These people want the government to give them whatever they need as in old Russia. The real world doesn't give you anything. If you were a doctor back home. Guess what? You will end up a janitor if you are lucky.

KZbin just recommend this today!! Where is this video hiding??

that's the real question!! 2011 first recommendation... only this morning!!

[@vladimirz3301]

I suspect there is a censprship on KZbin of videos which are not favorable for Israel. I know a guy here who is uploading humorous satiric videos in russian about his experience in Israel, and a bunch of his videos have been removed. He uploaded them again and they've been removed again

[@hayabusa1092]

@@vladimirz3301 Of course KZbin or its employees are always removing videos which make the case "israel" problematic and indefendable! especially when it comes to their propaganda or the myth "Israel"

[@rushdiahmad2435]

@@vladimirz3301 I have no comment on that, it's "suspected" but so far no hard evidence although any videos on anti semitism is most likely to be taken down, you just try upload any anti-Semitic video and we see how KZbin will react.
