Forward.com: Push To Repeal Cold War Measure Splits Chabad.

Let me take the stand here. Lazar is the court Jew, we know that. Now that the dark cloud of the totalitarian KGB rule is over Russia, Lazar is not going to take a moral stand of any sort. He is a willing obedient slave of the regime. But what a chutzpa for Cunin and company to tie the Jackson-Vanik Amendment to the books. The amendment was about the emigration of Yidden from Russia, not the emigration of the books. To equate the two is an affront to the lebedike nechoma of every single yid!
