      I was thinking more along the lines of the German Democratic Republic or North Korea - Israel at least lets its Jewish population emigrate, but in many dictatorships, absolutely no one is allowed to. Not sure which it’s going to be, Apartheit-style or North Korea-style, but if you’re not part of the ingroup, the difference probably doesn’t matter.

        I remember meeting a guy from East Berlin soon after the Wall fell, he was super excited at getting to travel outside the GDR (we were in Kenya).
