The deteriorating conditions of the Jews of Russia behooves us to raise our voices in anguish and protest. We must convey to them our heartfelt feelings that America does care about them. and let them know that their human rights are of fundamental concern to us. We must continue to tell the Jews of the Soviet Union that their desire to emigrate and practice their religion and culture are not purely internal matters. but issues that concern freedomloving people everywhere. We have seen in the last few months the rise of the ugly spectre of government sponsored antiSemitism. in the guise of antiZionism. But let there be no mistake about it: The Soviet propaganda against Israel and Zionisms is just another method for persecuting and harassing the Jews of the Soviet Union and for inciting feelings of hatred and jealousy between the Jews and nonJews of the Soviet Union.
