These peoples only crime is that they are Jews. they want to practice their religion. and some of them want to live in Israel. The plight of the Soviet Jews is a human rights issue. Refuseniks are prisoners of conscience within the country. victims of persecution and religious intolerance. Jewish heritage within the Soviet Union is endangered by Governmentled attacks on Hebrew education programs and traditional religious training. The Soviet Union is engaged in an active campaign to wipe out Jewish life. As we support and defend our ally Israel. so must we fight for the rights of Jews everywhere to live as Jews. and to emigrate to Israel if they so desire.*
