And Pollard sold at least 850,000 pages of documents...

BS. That's been debunked long ago. That number was arrived at by counting every page of a document, if Pollard gave Israel so much as one sentence from it. They also added in the page count of any document that was referenced by a document procured by Pollard.

His total delivery to Israel consisted of eleven bundles of papers, each of which fit in a briefcase. To take almost a million pages would require an 18-wheeler.

You are conflating Pollard's guilty plea with the entirety of his activities.

You are conflating the activities of Aldritch Ames and Robert Hanssen with those of Pollard, along with some plain-old exaggerations known to be untrue.

Which was made necessary because he refused to assist in a damage assessment that was a necessary condition of his plea bargain. The assumption was that if he checked it out, he sent it.

He was taking pictures of many of the documents. He specifically denied having done so, despite the FBI seizing large amounts of exposed film with images of documents on them. He was taking so much material, he had to use a handtruck each time he visited the repository. His apartment was full of documents. The agents investigating the case ended up with seriesly stuned beebers.
