Traitors? The foulest traitors are those who work in our Courts or Military, or fly F16's, and spit on the high ethics and heritage our Founding Father's granted us by ignoring the Constitution.

Israel is not an enemy, and the Constitution is perverted by secret tribunals without a formal declaration of war.

Hate drives plenty of magical thinking. The reality of OUR heritage is due a higher standard than the smelly, foul mud too many such as yourself and others have carelessly and spitefully dropped it in.

Artcle III, Section 3.

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.

"OPEN COURT" VERY CLEAR WORDS!

The words of the LAW. The LAW that is shat on by haters wearing brass and robes or holding prize Federal sinecures.

[Nachum]

The court obviously realized their initial mistaken notion of "fair" and "justice."

The plea bargain agreement was made with the prosecution. The Judge "decided" at the last moment to violate their own plea bargain and determime his own sentence on "secret" evidence that the defense had never seen.

You have a great deal of trust in this judge. I'm sorry, I don't trust a judge with secret evidence enough to sentence a man to life in prison or death.

[F16Fighter]

Grab yourself part of Pollard's rope. Cowards and traitors deserve only the same eventual fate.

I'll happily tranfer it's weight from his neck, and then use it to relash sanity to our National authorities.

Hey no one can tell Israel what to do. They wanted to release those terrorists, and weren't those terrorists released under peacenik administrations anyway? I find it hard to believe that Israel would risk the lives of its people. If they felt there was some threat, then they would have never done it.

Pollard should rot in jail just like every other spy.

[Nachum]

Hey no one can tell Israel what to do

The state dept. tells them what to do all the time.

[cyborg]

They don't have to listen. What Pollard did was wrong and he should pay... pay with jail time.

[Nachum]

They don't have to listen

Oh yes they do. Without US support, Israel would have huge problems.

[Nachum]

he should pay... pay with jail time.

He did. It is now time to let him out.

[F16Fighter]

"I'll happily tranfer it's weight from his neck, and then use it to relash sanity to our National authorities."

Speaking of "sanity," your (non)sense of any reality as it relates to the security of my country is insane.

Please buzz yor duty nurse for your medication.

[Poohbah]

A lawyer for Jonathan Pollard, a former U.S. Navy intelligence analyst who admitted spying for Israel, argued on Tuesday his 1987 sentence of life in prison should be set aside because he received ineffective assistance of counsel.

Well, there isn't a hell of a lot that counsel can do when there's a gazillion or so classified documents in the guy's residence, tagged for photographing and transfer to Israel...

[cyborg]

Well we are going to have to disagree my friend.

[gaijin]

You don't have to wonder what would happen, were the shoe on the other foot:

There was once a Jewish scientist of Yemeni background who was working on Israel's then-secret atomic bomb project. He merely released 20 or so photos of his work to a London newspaper:

The outraged Israelis kidnapped him back to Israel and jailed him for 20 years.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

His actions were shameful.
I think there are too many people keeping an eye on this case to let Pollard go. I wouldn't mind letting him out when he's 90 or 95.
