JERUSALEM — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering a public plea to the White House for the release of Jonathan Pollard, an Israeli spy jailed 25 years ago, an official said Tuesday.

>>nothing that he released harmed America or even was intended to harm us.
That’s an absurd formulation that you have created in pimping for Pollard.
The first one is irrelvant as is the second.
Whether it harmed America or not is YOUR opinion. The military doesn’t think so. So, where’s your confirming info? Right, none.
The second, heck, we nail drunk drivers when they kill regardless of their intention. Pollard’s intentions mean as much as a bucket of dogpoop.
No goal.
NO WAY is he getting out.
“Techsical Information that Pollard gave to Israel went directly to the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union would then let Jews immigrate to Israel.”
That was actually admitted to be false.
He was tried, convicted and sentenced, he’s shown no remorse and noone questions that he’s guilty. What has he done to deserve a pardon? Why is this even an issue?
He doesn't realize that he has enraged quite a few Israelis as well as Americans.
