But all of Gorbachevs smiles and expressions of good will cannot erase the truth. Make no mistake: The Soviet leadership remains committed to the perpetuation of a dogma that substitutes the worship of God with the worship of manthe idolatry of the Soviet state. The truth behind glasnost is revealed by the fact that in 1986. the year when socalled openness was introduced in the Soviet Union. only 914 Jewish people were allowed to emigrate from Gorbachevs workers paradise. That is the second smallest 1year total since 1968. Moreover. the Statesponsored antiSemitism that has been accelerating since the waning years of the Brezhnev regime shows no signs of abating.
