Soviet Jewry Gains Self-Respect Out of Israel's Victory
to The Jewish News)
(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
BOSTON--A dramatic increase
in the pride and self-respect of
many Russian Jews in spite of
enormous recent pressures on
them arising from last month's
Middle East war has been found
by the expert on Russian affairs
of the Christian Science Monitor.
In a lengthy analysis of Jewish
life in the Soviet Union, Paul
Wohl, who spent many years liv-
ing and working in Russia, said
that while Russian Jews have
ample grounds for worry over the
fact that Israel has become a
hostile country in the eyes of
the Kremlin, "They have not
demeaned themselves."
In spite of an intensive cam-
paign against Jews, Wohl declares,
"Soviet officials still have not
been able to produce a declara-
tion of rabbis and Jewish intel-
lectuals condemning Israel." The
writer notes that since last March,
officials of the few remaining
synagogues in the Soviet Union
were urged by state security or-
gans to start a letter-writing cam-
paign denouncing Israel, but that
such a campaign had not come
off.
"Only in Dushambe, Tadjikistan,
did a Jewish congregation—a con-
gregation without a rabbi—issue
an anti-Israel statement. The large
Jewish communities of Moscow
(285,000), Leningrad (165,000),
Kiev (120,000) and Odessa
(250,000) remained silent," Wohl
declares.

The writer also raises the pos-
