@steve it's important to mention that these nations weren't solely motivated by high ideals. Scientists from Germany were also welcomed to countries like the US and Australia *after* the war. These weren't the ones fleeing from the nazis though, these were the ones that had been at least happy to work for the nazis, or actual nazis themselves. In Australia it was called the Employment of Scientific and Technical Enemy Aliens Scheme, but the same thing went on in Britain and the US, famously in the case of Werner Von Braun.
