(Shahran Tabari, London)مهدي خلجي (راديوآزادي): محمد خاتمي رئيس جمهوري ايران گفته است در حال حاضر درصد کثيري از شرکت کنندگان در المپيادها، نخبگان و متفکران در خارج از کشور به سر مي برند و بايد براي جذب آنها تلاش صورت گيرد. آقاي خاتمي راه اساسي جذب و نگه داري نيروي انساني را تأمين امنيت و زندگي آبرومند دانسته است. آقاي خاتمي گفته است ما نيروهاي متخصص زيادي در سراسر دنيا داريم که بسيار هم علاقه مند هستند براي خدمت به ايران بازگردند اما ما بلد نيستيم آنان را جذب کنيم. در عين حال روزنامه ايران در شماره امروز خود تيتر اصلي را به گزارشي با عنوان فعاليت شبکه هاي شکار مغز در ايران و ماجراي باند استقلال اختصاص داده و مدعي شده که خروج 101 دانش آموز و دانشجوي طراز اول کشور از مجموعد 350 نفر نشان مي دهد که شکارچيان مغز در ايران شبکه گسترده اي را تدارک ديده اند. روزنامه ايران نوشته برخي از افراد فعال در اين زمينه با همکاري گروهي از فعالان دانشگاهي با برگزاري سمينارها و شناسايي نخبگان علمي در اين امر فعال هستند. روزنامه «ايران،» سمينارها و کنفرانس هاي علمي و هم چنين المپيادها را راهي براي جست و جوي مغرها و فراري دادن آنها توصيف کرده است. روزنامه دولتي ايران از کسي با نام دکتر محمود سين نام برده و او را رابط يک سفارت اروپايي معرفي کرده که با برگزاري و حضور در چنين سمينارهايي نخبگان را به طور دسته جمعي، جمع آوري مي کند و آنها را به کشورهايي مانند آلمان صادر مي نمايد. بحث فرار مغزها در ايران، از سال ها پيش مطرح شده، اما طبق آمارهاي رسمي، روند مهاجرت ايرانيان تحصيل کرده، در سال هاي اخير کاهش نيافته است. کارشناسان اجتماعي و اقتصادي، فقدان بازار کار، نبود امنيت شغلي، آزادي بيان و آزادي هاي فردي و اجتماعي را از عوامل اصلي مهاجرت ايرانيان تحصيل کرده مي دانند. طبق پاره اي از آمارها بيش از نيمي از فارغ التحصيلان رشته هاي علوم انساني در ايران، کار متناسب با تحصيلات خود را نمي يابند. اين مسأله تا آن جا پيش رفته که خود دولت جمهوري اسلامي در حال انديشيدن تدابيري براي صادر کردن نيروي کار و حتا فارغ التحصيلان پزشکي به خارج از کشور است. در چنين شرايطي، معلوم نيست که متهم کردن عده اي به عنوان شکارچي مغز، چه اهدافي را دنبال مي کند؟ در محافل گفته مي شود که در ايران عده اي دوست دارند سرنخ هر مشکلي را در برنامه اي توطئه آميز و پنهاني و احياناً هدايت شده از خارج کشور پيدا کنند. احتمالاً با طرح شبکه شکارچيان مغز، خارجي ها مقصر و سياست هاي آموزشي و اجتماعي تبرئه خواهند شد.

بنا به گزارش روزنامه «ايران،» دلالان و شبكه هاي شكار مغز، كارشناسان و متخصصان ايراني را از طريق برگزاري سمينارهاي علمي شناسائي و سپس براي كار به خارج از كشور، از جمله آلمان منتقل مي كنند. بحث فرار مغزها در ايران، از سال ها پيش مطرح شده، اما طبق آمارهاي رسمي، روند مهاجرت ايرانيان تحصيل کرده، در سال هاي اخير کاهش نيافته است. کارشناسان اجتماعي و اقتصادي، فقدان بازار کار، نبود امنيت شغلي، آزادي بيان و آزادي هاي فردي و اجتماعي را از عوامل اصلي مهاجرت ايرانيان تحصيلکرده مي دانند. اين مسئله تا آنجا پيش رفته که خود دولت جمهوري اسلامي در حال انديشيدن تدابيري براي صادر کردن نيروي کار و حتي فارغ التحصيلان پزشکي به خارج از کشور است. در چنين شرايطي، معلوم نيست که متهم کردن عده اي به عنوان شکارچي مغز، چه اهدافي را دنبال مي کند؟ احتمالاً با طرح شبکه شکارچيان مغز، خارجي ها مقصر و سياست هاي آموزشي و اجتماعي تبرئه خواهند شد.
