On this floor they have beaten their breasts. howled their indignation. and demanded vigorous application of our dollar power on behalf of morality. charity. compassion. and motherhood. Would that their moral outrage for human beings were as strong today on behalf of the Jews of Russia. There are also some who have thumped the tub loudly on behalf of every cause from Tibetan refugees to the plight of the Indians in the Amazon jungles. Worthy causes. to be sure. but not causes where we can have immediate effect. as is the case here. Some here in the United States. however. notable for their radical cast of thought. have taken it upon themselves to wage a personal vendetta upon the Jewish people. turning a blind eye and deaf ear to their plight in Russia. their murders by terrorists. letter bombs. executions of Israeli POWs. and Munich horrors.
