Like, say, burning US flags really helped those poor Iraqis. And burning Israeli flags (again and again and AGAIN ad nauseum for the past 60 years) has done wonders in alleviating the misery of the Palestinians. Well, burning flags always helps, I guess.

What a great Jew. And why does this part of the obituary sound sadly familiar: He tried to engage the local Jewish Federation Council to take an activist role in the name of Soviet Jewry but was met with resounding silence. He was told not to rock the boat as the U.S. was trying to achieve a level of rapprochement with the Soviet Union. - - - - - - - ... hey middle, that paragraph is all you need to know about Obama and Bibi... and American Jews. Wow. What a great Jew.

He was a hero to all who knew him. Si knew how to do what it took to get the need for helping Soviet Jews (and Christian Pentacostals also)known. He was a great thinker of ways to accomplish this. He wasn't above driving the Soviet officials crazy at the same time. May he rest in peace. He was a great man. I was a friend of Si’s and knew him well. He was a hero to all who knew him.

I didn't know about him before, but if he brought the Soviet Jewry cause to national U.S. attention, then big kudos to him. Double points for burning the USSR flag WITH sunglasses on.
