Ida Nudel Thanks
Reagan For U.S. Help
Jerusalem (JTA) — Ida
Nudel spoke with two presi-
dents last Sunday, starred in
a festive concert in Tel Aviv,
and considered ideas for a
coast-to-coast lecture tour of
the United States, which
billionaire Armand Hammer
wants to arrange for her.
"I was a little nervous: he is
only the second president I
have ever spoken to," Nudel
said after her four-minute
phone call to President
Ronald Reagan from Jeru-
salem to the hospital in
Maryland where his wife,
Nancy, is recovering from
surgery.
With Secretary of. State
George Shultz at her side,
Nudel thanked the President
for his personal involvement
in her case and wished his
wife a full recovery.
Earlier, she lunched with
President Chaim Herzog —
and sat in a chair bearing her
name that had been kept
symbolically vacant at the
president's residence for the
past five years.
In the evening, escorted by
Tel Aviv Mayor Shlomo
Lahat, Nudel joined the Her-
zogs and other dignitaries at
the Israel Philharmonic's
festive concert in Tel Aviv
marking the 13th anniver-
sary of the opening of the
Mann Auditorium, the city's
main cultural center.
Nudel spoke to the audi-
ence briefly from the stage —
and was greeted with sus-
tained applause
Nudel, who proclaimed, "I
am a free person among my
own people" when she arrived
from Moscow, spent a gruel-
ing first weekend in Israel
after being reunited with her
sister, Ilana Fridman, whom
she had not seen for 16 years
The seemingly endless round
of official visits and media in-
terviews was physically and-
emotionally exhausting for
diminutive 56-year-old former
refusenik and Prisoner of
Conscience.
Her first visit to the
Western Wall was an emo-
tional experience where, com-
forted by her sister, she
pressed her face to the
massive stones and wept.
Every step on her way has
been dogged by reporters and
television camera crews since
she landed at Ben-Gurion
Airport board the private jet
provided by American in-
dustrialist Armand Hammer.
Shortly after her arrival, she
called on Prime Minister Yit-
zhak Shamir, Foreign Mini-
ster Shimon Peres and former
Prime Minister Menachem
Begin. She also has met with
President Chaim Herzog and
Secretary of State George
Shultz whom she telephoned
earlier in Washington before
his visit to Israel.
Nudel spent her first night
in Israel at the Tel Aviv
Hilton. She told reporters the
next morning she was
amazed by the color of the sky
— Mediterranean blue, not
Moscow grey — and the
masses of food available.
Asked what she had
brought with her from the
Soviet Union, Nudel replied,
"My faithful dog, Pizer, who
has been my constant compa-
nion since she was brought to
me in Siberia as a five week-
old puppy; my books, and the
very warm blanket which I
cannot do without."
She said her immediate
plans were to learn Hebrew
and continue working for the
freedom of other Jews seeking
to leave the USSR.
Nudel's most moving words
were spoken when she de-
scended from her plane and
set foot for the first time on
Israeli soil. "A few hours ago
I was almost a slave in
Moscow. Now I'm a free
woman in my own country. It
is the moment of my life. I am
home at the soul of the
Jewish people. I am a free per-
son among my own people."
On hand to embrace her
were her older sister, Ilana; Il-
ana's husband and son;
Shamir; Peres; and Holly-
wood screen star Jane Fonda,
who has worked hard for the
cause of Soviet Jewry in re-
cent years.
Also on hand was Hammer,
the head of Continental
Petroleum, who told of his
part in effecting Nudel's
release.
