#4 The IAIS must not provide very good job opportunities for prior State employees.

#5 Well,B,there are now ten openings. This probably reduces the staff to half or less. The IAIS at University of Exeter in the UK has a full time staff only ten. I couldn't find similar information on IAIS in the US. But I'll bet that 'Sciences' in the name does not refer to hard sciences.

#6 "The US State Department has not clarified the issue yet,"

That State is quiet means they might have been forced to face something rather unpalatable.

Still, any bets that the visas will be very quietly reinstated over the few months or so?
