Russias totalitarian state practices an atheistic philosophy without regard for human rights. or indeed. for human life itself. Yet the Soviets do sign the many multinational documents that promote human rights. the Helsinki Final Act. the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other agreements. Now. all we ask is that they comply with their signed pledges. It is time we ask the Soviet Union to loosen its restrictions on Jewish emigration. It is time we ask the Soviet Union to stop harassing the "refuseniks" and denying them access to their culture and religion. Time to end the arbitrary arrests. the internal exiles. the social isolation.
