Tel Aviv has become a Mecca for contemporary dance and dancers. Folklore has always been an important part of Jewish culture and Orthodox Jews dance a lot. Dance represents an escape from reality and the only thing a man can do without speak- ing about politics directly. It has a universal un- derstanding… you are no longer required to speak the same language. However, the rise of modern dance in Israel only began with those who were born in freedom. Dancing requires liberty and the pursuit of free expression. This is largely thanks to the hard work of Ohad Na- harin with the Betsheva Dance Theatre. He ap- peared at the right time and raised dance to another, higher level. Thanks to him, Tel Aviv’s art scene is more international and open to ex- changes with other cultures.

  • March 31, 2017 VIA ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION the Honorable
    March 31, 2017 VIA ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION The Honorable Dana Boente Acting Deputy Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20530 Dear Mr. Boente: Over the past few years, the Committee has repeatedly contacted the Department of Justice to raise concerns about the Department’s lack of enforcement of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (“FARA”). I write regarding the Department’s response to the alleged failure of pro-Russia lobbyists to register under FARA. In July of 2016, Mr. William Browder filed a formal FARA complaint with the Justice Department regarding Fusion GPS, Rinat Akhmetshin, and their associates.1 His complaint alleged that lobbyists working for Russian interests in a campaign to oppose the pending Global Magnitsky Act failed to register under FARA and the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995. The Committee needs to understand what actions the Justice Department has taken in response to the information in Mr. Browder’s complaint. The issue is of particular concern to the Committee given that when Fusion GPS reportedly was acting as an unregistered agent of Russian interests, it appears to have been simultaneously overseeing the creation of the unsubstantiated dossier of allegations of a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Russians. Mr. Browder is the CEO of Hermitage Capital Management (“Hermitage”), an investment firm that at one time was the largest foreign portfolio investor in Russia. According to the Justice Department, in 2007, Russian government officials and members of organized crime engaged in corporate identity theft, stealing the corporate identities of three Hermitage companies and using them to fraudulently obtain $230 million.2 The $230 million was then extensively laundered into accounts outside of Russia.
