# LionsDen I can hear the screaming at a old Russian couple trying to make Aliah loud and clear in the waiting room. No closed office door makes it better to broadcast your voice and set the tone for the next client. The same lady I’ve been facing and will face in few minutes time. Because of the ‘E’ designation of their take-a-ticket number, one member of the couple is not Jewish by birth. At 70 plus how much of a national threat could they be? Or if your mother tongue is Russian and Hebrew is difficult at best when did screaming ever make a foreign tongue easier to understand? I hear the authority saying ‘when I tell you to be quiet you be quiet’ but the person who was being reprimanded had spoken so softly I couldn’t hear what they said. The dazed look of stress and hulimation on their faces when they walked out of her office was heartbreaking. The Russian lady sat beside me in a chair when they left the office. In a minute the authority left her office to another location. I leaned over and softly said to my fellow victim “Hi lo b’seider ciy halev lo b”seider”…. She is not in order because the heart is not in order. All I could offer was a simple statement of truth to offset the sting of injustice. One of the many burdens of Israel. It’s so wrong.Updated Jan 27, 2018, 2:54 PM
