Naur and Inna Meiman are an elderly. ailing couple who want desperately to leave the Soviet Union. Inna is seriously ill with cancer and requires medical treatment Soviet technology cannot provide. Naum is 74 years old and he. too. is not in good health. The Meimans deserve to live out the rest of their lives together in peace and free of pain. They desire to emigrate to Israel. They have applied for exit visas several times. but the Soviets repeatedly refuse their requests. The Meimans are one example of the tens of thousands of Jews who have been denied their passport to freedom. This denial by the Soviets is mockery of international law.
