3 Russian Jews Touring U.S. Tell
e ,-otiPlight;, Stress Peaceful, Protest
Friday, Jamary 22, 1971-17
TIE INTROIT JEWISH MRS
NEW YORK (JTA) — Three
Soviet Jews who emigrated to Is-
rael in November told a press con-
ference here that "bombing is not
the right method to use in protest-
ing against the persecution of. Jews
in the Soviet Union."
The three were among the 10
signers of the first collective ap-
peal addressed by Moscow Jews
to their fellow Jews outside the
Soviet Union in September 1969.
Dr. Esther Aisenstadt, a former
professor of language in Moscow;
her husband Leizer Napomnyasty,
a Russian-English interpreter; and
Mark (Mordecai) Elbaum, 25, all
former Moscow residents, had
come to the U.S. to lecture through
out the country on behalf of the
American Conference on Soviet
Jewry.
In response to questions, Dr.
Aisenstadt, speaking for herself
and her husband, said "the right
way of protesting is to rouse
world opinion, governments and
leaders to speak up on behalf of
Soviet Jewry." She said that
public opinion "really helps" and
"has an influence on Soviet pol-
icy" as shown by the results of
the Leningrad trial.
There Is no way of knowing how
many Soviet Jews want to leave
the USSR, Dr. Aisenstadt said,
"But if Jews knew that by' apply-
ing for exit visas they would be
allowed to leave, many more would
hand in applications than have
done so up to now." She admitted
that "If I had relatives in the
USSR, I would not speak as freely
as I do now."
Elbaum said the growing interest
in Israel that is found among
Soviet Jewish youth was "part of
the general feeling among Soviet
youth for a free life." Soviet soci-
ety had tried hard to assimilate the
Jews, he said, "but we have al-
ways felt like strangers and this
has helped us in our approach to
Israel and Judaism."
Asked about the reaction in the
Soviet Union after the Six-Day
War, Elbaum said: "The Russian
people don't like the Arabs very
much. Life there (in the Soviet
Union) is not comfortable, and
everyone knows the money is being
spent to help the Arabs."
Many Russians admired the Jews
for their strength during the war,
he noted, and added that "anti-
Semitism lessened in the Ukraine
and Lithuania after the Six-Day
