Once again, I respectfully disagree, while I do appreciate your opinion. Pollard sold American secrets, with which he was entrusted, for a few pieces of silver. If he gave them away for the sake of Israel, or if he became an Israeli citizen, when he did the deeds, I could be a bit more sympathetic, however, in my history book, he is on the same page as General B. Arnold. Thank you.

I usually refrain from using the term "Israeli spy" in reference to Pollard. He was born in Texas, raised in the Midwest, and educated at Stanford. He didn't become an Israeli citizen until almost a decade after he was originally prosecuted.

I have to wonder about a nation that grants citizenship to a person who is serving a life sentence in another country.

Maybe the Obama administration is ready to grant U.S. citizenship to every Palestinian in the West Bank -- and in Israeli prisons -- as part of this deal, eh?
