The opening paragraph should be:

Anatoly (Yitzhak) Rubin was a survivor of the Holocaust and later of the Gulags.[1] Born in Minsk, in what was then the USSR, he survived the German invasion of the USSR in a remote village and was almost killed while trying to join the Partisans. In 1947 owing to anti-Semitic libel at his work he was falsely accused of being a deserter. Sentenced to 5 years imprisonment in the labor camp in Kemerovo, he was released after an appeal the following year. Thereafter he persistently engaged in Zionist activity and spreading Zionist literature that were considered anti soviet Propaganda. He was sentenced again to six years of labor work in the gulags.[1] When he was released in 1964, he once again resumed his Zionist activity. In 1969 was among the first to get a permission to emigrate to Israel. Once there, he campaigned for the Israeli government to do more to assist others who wished to migrate from the USSR to Israel. He also wrote published memoirs of his earlier experiences. He died in Mevasseret Zion, Israel in 2017.

The expression "sympathetic to Zionism" is weird to say the least. He spread literature and articles that were considered anti soviet Propaganda because the advocated Zionism. Karny.rubin (talk) 18:40, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
