The Israeli FM appealed to the Russian government for the return of David Ginzburg’s collection of 14,000 Hebrew and Jewish manuscripts. Bolsheviks confiscated the collection—the largest of its kind—and it is kept now in appalling conditions, with a number of manuscripts having been stolen and hundreds damaged.
Israel returned to Russia a part of Sergiev Courtyard, a prime real estate in Jerusalem, but Russians insist that confiscated Jewish property is theirs forever.
Livni’s FM refused calls to condition the transfer of Sergiev Courtyard on the return of the Ginzburg collection.
Besides the collection, Russia holds hundreds of synagogues and thousands of houses confiscated from Jews murdered in the Holocaust and political repressions.
Russians must give back the Jews everything that belongs to them! http://www.jewish.org
