If true this is a huge mitigating factor and Pollard should indeed be released immediately. Ames should be executed.
Dear jackass Caroline Glick,
Even if Israel is an ally, Pollard betrayed his country, and if there was any justice in this world, such as he would be hung by his neck until dead.
Go to hell,
TB
Pollard is damn lucky he hasn’t gotten justice.
At least, not yet.
Not surprised at the inaccuracy of the statement which, by the way, I gleaned from the article. Every article I’ve read on Free republic about this clown has been sympathetic toward his plight.
I agree. Hang ‘em all.
Pollard should have been shot as a traitor to his country.
Don’t do the crime if you can’t do duh time....
or
if your risk isn’t acceptable...
Next month, convicted Israeli agent Jonathan Pollard will begin his 27th year in prison...
John Anthony Walker began his 26th year in prison for espionage earlier this year. Should we let him out, too?

There is no way we should have been paying for the upkeep and well being of these two clowns for a total of 53 years.
Seems 2 bullets would have stopped a lot of problems.
Hate to admit it, but I finally found something I can agree with Biden. Of course his reason for keeping him is probably not quite the same as mine.
Tired of some conservatives apologizing for this traitor. Pollard deserves to die alone and miserable in prison.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
I don’t agree that Pollard (and J Walker) should die alone, they should be free to roam about and be housed with the General Population and be allowed to make friends with all sorts of ‘nice’ people.
“Repeatedly referring to Pollard as a “traitor,” Biden said, “It would take the Third Coming before I would support letting Pollard out.” “
Biden is a proven liar, coward, and bully. He is a liar because he said the man who killed his wife in a car accident (in which police found no evidence of alcohol involvement in either driver, and apparently not even a moving violation by either driver) a drunk driver. In other words, he falsely accused a man of a felony (killing somebody while driving drunk). The falsehood matters because the man has a daughter who had to hear and see her father being falsely accused of a felony by a public figure.
He is a coward because he made this accusation after the man died, and it is not possible to legally libel a dead person (not legal advice, I am not a lawyer).
He is a bully because he used the resources of the U.S. Senate, specifically his Senate Web page, to propagate this falsehood.
An analogy would be somebody who loses a family member and then calls the doctor who treated the person a quack (in complete absence of any proof that the doctor was negligent or did anything wrong). The person’s grief is understandable but that does not entitle him to levy a false accusation of that nature against another without evidence, and Biden has no evidence whatsoever that the driver who killed his wife committed so much as a moving traffic violation let alone drunk driving. If anything, his wife was at fault because she pulled out from a stop sign and did not see the oncoming vehicle, although she did not actually run the stop sign.

It seems that Israel does not have much cause to complain here. “After his partial confession, Pollard was surveilled but not taken into custody. He and his wife then attempted to gain asylum at the Israeli embassy, only to be rebuffed by the Israeli guards and taken into custody by FBI agents who swarmed the perimeter as soon as Pollard set foot off embassy property.”
Where was Biden lying or being cowardly or bullying when he referred to Pollard as a traitor?
Agree.
He stole the secrets of the KH11 spy satellite and gave them to foreign governments. Secrets which eventually found their way to Russia after that.
Anybody else would be lucky to get life out of this. No reason he should be any different.
If Israel is an ally, why then are they spying on us? The author is living in fantasy land and wants it both ways.
Even if you want to go with ally angle, Pollard did not know the info was going to Israel. False flag recuitments exist.
You guys act like you never heard of Roosevelt, or Clinton.
How many people died when we gave half of Europe to papa Joe, we have yet to know the full effect of Clinton’s dealing with China. To reserve so much hate for a low level traitor is unnatural.
” low level traitor “?
Perhaps you are ill informed.
And yes I agree Clintons giving the Chi coms info on MIRV and other rocket technology should have earned him a hanging.
As for FDR, about as big a joke as is the current president.
I agree —the Pollard situation shows how much trouble these things can be: next time just throw the guy into a furnace —alive.
He was paid.
He also spied for Pakistan.
Pollard's sentence contradicted his plea bargain agreement. It was based, among other things, on an impact assessment report of his crimes that was authored by CIA officer Aldrich Ames. At the time of Pollard's arrest, Ames had been spying for the Soviet Union for two years. Ames was arrested for espionage in 1994. He was responsible for the deaths of at least 10 agents working for US intelligence in the USSR. Ames reportedly blamed Pollard for some of the agent deaths caused by his own espionage.
