Vladimir. is still in school. It is extremely important that we who enjoy such abundant freedom continue to express our outrage at the persecution of Soviet Jews who want nothing else but to join family members in Israel. Only 182 Jews were allowed to leave the Soviet Union in June to emigrate to Israel. while nearly 4.500 Jews received exit visas in June 1979. As long as Soviet authorities continue their current campaign to smother Jewish emigration. we shall be hearing about other families forced into these same tragic circumstances by the conflict between Soviet oppression and an individuals pursuit of his or her basic human rights.
