(1) In Israel such a soldier is known as a refusenik , which is also the name of a recent book compiled by Kidron about this movement.(2) I found myself preferring the informed histories of Michael Zand, a member of the Soviet refusenik movement, who provides terrifyingly factual accounts of the fate of Russian Jewry.(3) You do not have to be a UKIP refusenik to recognise that these tensions are becoming intolerable.(4) Leeds Coalition Against the War held an inspirational meeting on Monday 18 November to hear 18 year old Israeli refusenik and peace activist Tal Matalon.(5) He himself had made aliyah from Russia, after years as a refusenik and three and a half years doing hard labor in the Gulag.(6) The modern return to Jewish tradition began slowly after the Six Day War, which fanned the latent spark in Jews worldwide, giving rise as well to the refusenik movement in Russia.(7) The director of Aish HaTorah's Russian Program is Rabbi Eliyahu Essas, a former refusenik from the Soviet Union.(8) The rally had been organized by Natan Sharansky, the Soviet refusenik who spent fourteen years in the gulag and is now a Knesset member and the head of the largest Russian immigrant party.(9) As a reservist, as a refusenik , what message would you offer to the Palestinian people?(10) Natan Sharansky, former refusenik and Soviet prisoner, current Israeli cabinet minister, is one of the great men of our time.(11) The refuseniks have insisted on their loyalty to the state of Israel and commitment to Zionism.(12) In that sense, I think the refuseniks have been the biggest inspiration to the Left in Israel because they're taking a clearly noble and moral stand and it's resonating in Israel.(13) The poll, conducted by Intellect, a British IT, telecoms and electronics suppliers' trade association, found that the main reason quoted by the broadband refuseniks is ‘lack of business case’.(14) He is, of course, one of the great media survivors, or counterpunchers, or refuseniks , of our political age.(15) This may induce more Tory refuseniks to vote against the scheme, but even if the party line was to oppose rather than abstain, it would still be approved because of Labour's large majority.(16) Thank god for those refuseniks and some modicum of level-headedness in this insanity.
