What were the crimes of these Jewish citizens? Merely that they wanted to live as Jews. to leave the country. or to speak and read Hebrew. Mr. President. this trial is now being followed by other trials. And what are the crimes of those on trial? A desire and effort to emigrate from Russia to Israel. a right to emigrate that we in this country take for granted. Let some of those who are so ready to decry justice in the United States look at what is happening to Soviet Jewry today. The repression of Jews in Russia is an international crime.
