So you're focusing on a minor part of what I said and using that to discredit the rest? The FACT is that Israel sold U.S. intelligence data it had gotten from Johnny Pollard--a HERO in Israel--to the Russians in exchange for exit visas. That's a FACT. Go and read the detailed background, including the remarks by Cap Weinberger.
Why do you think that, despite CONSTANT hounding by our "friends" in Israel, the U.S. has ADMANTLY refused even to discuss Pollard's release, and has denied his parole in each of the two times he's come up for hearing?
That guy was, until the Hansen case, the absolute WORST catastrophe to strike the U.S. intelligence services in history.
And your smarmy, disgusting "friends" in Israel are STILL swarming all over the case trying to spring him.
I thought Netanyahu was a decent enough guy until (1) He continued to harrass the U.S. for Pollard's release, and made a one million dollar payment to Pollard's wife a couple of years ago, and (2) sat and LIED to a Congressional committee trying to make it sound like the U.S.' enemies are all operating in Palestine right now along with the PLO.
The Israeli Likud party are NO friends of the U.S., and as long as those thugs are in power over there, I don't care if Israel never gets another dime from us.
To tell the truth, I could care less one way or another whether Israel lives or dies.
They have been absolutely SH*TTY friends to the United States, the ONLY nation consistently willing to take the heat for them, and they've blown it, big time.
That government is a travesty, and the chickens are coming home to roost for them, right now.
You found out he was an Israeli? Can you name one Israeli leader that you like? Past or present.
