It is difficult. however. to realize the pain felt by Anatoly Shcharanskys wife. who has been waiting for over 4 years for her husband to join her in Israel. It is also difficult to realize the sadness shared by the many Soviet people who fear their future may hold similar injustices. I call on my colleagues to join me in protesting the case of Anatoly Shcharansky. His unjust imprisonment by Soviet officials and their refusals of his requests to emigrate are in gross violation of the Helsinki agreements. We cannot stand silently by and allow these unreasonable acts to go unmentioned. We must voice our opposition to such practices and help keep the spirit of Anatoly Shcharansky alive with the Soviet community.9
