The plight of the estimated 3 million Jews in the Soviet Union has worsened in recent years. It is time for the world to speak out in upposition to the growing repression and persecution of the Jewish citizens of the Soviet Union. Lest the world forget. the authorities in Nazi Germany initially undertook similar measures. restricting the right of Jews to immigrate. increasing political and economic repression of the Jewish community. and other measures of persecution. The efforts of Nazi Germany culminated in the Holocaust. whereby an estimated 6 million Jews were systematically exterminated. What is happening in the Soviet Union is an all too familiar pattern.
