  • Let My People Go: the Untold Story of Australia and the Soviet Jews 1959–89 Sam Lipski and Suzanne D
    MEDIA RELEASE – HYBRID PUBLISHERS April 2015 “… an inspiring and fascinating story” —John Howard, former Prime Minister of Australia Let My People Go: The untold story of Australia and the Soviet Jews 1959–89 Sam Lipski and Suzanne D. Rutland For 50 years, until the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, the Soviet Union ran a campaign of repression, imprisonment, political trials and terror against its 3 million Jews. In Australia, political leaders and the Jewish community contributed significantly to the international protest movement which eventually triumphed over Moscow’s tyranny and led to the modern Exodus of Soviet Jews to Israel and other countries. Lipski and Rutland make this largely unknown Australian story come alive with a combination of passion, personal experience and ground-breaking research. “The struggle for the freedom of Soviet Jewry was one of the most powerful displays of strength and solidarity by the world Jewish community … even those intimately familiar with the Publication: April 2015 struggle will be surprised to discover in Let My People Go how ISBN: 978-1-925000-85-6 the Australian Jewish community and its leaders were among RRP: AUD $29.95 the campaign's initiators, and how they saw it through to its Binding: Perfect bound successful conclusion.

  • Ro'i Jewish Movement.Indd
    13 How the Movement Was Funded Michael Beizer On January 2, 1986, the aliya activist Vladimir Lifshitz was arrested and imprisoned in Leningrad. Reacting quickly to the crisis, the family of the late Academician Vladimir (Yerahmiel) Yoffe, who had often supported Jewish causes in the past, offered to provide a living allowance to the wife and children of the accused man. The response, to their surprise, was: “Thank you so much—but they are already receiving aid.”1 The Yoffes did not know that by that time an effective support network had been estab- lished for Soviet Prisoners of Zion and aliya activists. The Sensitivity of the Topic No meaningful movement can be sustained without funding. Already in the movement’s early stages, in the late 1960s, activists in at least three cities—Moscow, Leningrad, and Riga—had a kitty at their disposal. When its “treasurer” received an exit permit, he would transfer the money to a successor. David Khavkin received his exit permit in July 1969 and con- signed to Meir Gelfond the money that he had accumulated for purposes of Zionist activity. Gelfond also had a small sum in his possession from be- fore the Six-Day War, and he received a further sum from Yosef Khorol who brought it with him when he left for Israel in 1969 (money that had reached Riga from Israel via Poland). As early as 1957, a number of former 1. This is how Boris Kelman, another Jewish activist, related the incident to the author in January 1986. On the Yoffe family, see: Berta Yoffe, Semeinye zapiski (Haifa, 2003).

Contesting Israel’s exceptionalist security narrative, it identifies, through an extensive examination of the writings of Theodor Herzl, the overlapping settler colonialist and ethno-nationalist roots of Zionism. In doing so, it contextualises Herzl’s movement as a hegemonic political force that embraced the dominant European discourses of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, including anti-Semitism. The thesis is also concerned with the ways in which these ideological foundations came to bear on the Palestinian and broader Ottoman contexts.
