Pollard is in jail because he is a traitor to the United States of America. Let him rot in prison as an example to others. Its called deterrence. If his head could be mounted on a pole for all to see under the U.S. judicial system, I would have endorsed it.

... So, if Jews will not do what is necessary to liberate Jonathan Pollard, perhaps the "goyim" may be prompted to do so ...
This particular gentile wants Pollard to remain in prison forever and ever and ever. Not for our benefit, but for his benefit, that he may have many years to consider the enormity of his treacheries against his country and to meditate upon the souls of those who died because of his misplaced loyalities.

Sorry, he spied on the U.S. Israel is our ally (and I am very pro-Israel) but nobody - NOBODY - gets to spy on us. He did a lot of damage and he's lucky he didn't get death, frankly.

Israel has used spies against the United States in the past and are currently doing so. Israel has in the past attacked american ships knowingly. In the future Israel will do what is in Israels best interests.
Mr. Pollard knew the consequences of his deeds before he committed treason against "his" country.
Mr. Pollard should have been shot. Baring that he should spend the rest of his natural life in an American prison.

Bill Clinton. This flamboyant president let Jonathan languish in jail yet pardoned an escaped felon, Mark Rich, who had contributed to a Clinton campaign fund.

So Clinton shouldn't have pardoned Marc Rich. Two wrongs don't make a right. Pollard should not be released.

I think sometimes you have to temper justice with mercy. He's been punished greatly, far greater than most other spies. It would be merciful to release him befor he dies in prison. I say release him with the proviso that he can never step foot on US soil again.

Pollard is my great grandmother's maiden name. Tidewater Virginia family, long line of professionals. Except she married a Texas dirt farmer. Oh well.

Pollard is a traitor. The only reasons the Israelis want him back are (1) he has additional secret US material that is of value to the Israelis or can be sold by them to others and, (2) as a signal to other Israeli spies in the US that, if they get caught, they won't serve a long sentaence.

Israel is not our ally or our friend. They look only to themselves for their survival. We give them 25 to 50 billion a year in cash (that is the core of the current governmental crisis, "we want a biiger piece of the US pie and if we don't get it, we walk") and they tolerate us.

Never, never believe that Israel would jeopardize it's continued existance for an instant to do something for the US. There is nothing wrong with self-interest. But, don't imagine anything but from the Israelis. Pollard must die in a Yankee prison!! And no "let him serve his time in his own land" BS. If the Israelis had him, they would find some justifcation to release him within weeks. Just, as they justified refusing to send the muderer back to the US, the kid who cut his buddy's head off.

If Pollard only gave the stolen information to a friendly state, then what member of the Israeli leadership can we stick in jail to replace him since Israel traded the stolen information to the soviets. So much for friends. The Israelis are only for the Israelis.

Pollard is a shit eating traitor of the worst kind. This asshole was unpatriotic. If his dutiful wife needs a little, send her my way, Im not too picky.

Rudy Giuliani has said as much.

Paul Eidelberg rants:   "So, if Jews will not do what is necessary to liberate Jonathan Pollard, perhaps the 'goyim' may be prompted to do so."

They have become so desperate to free this traitorous dog that they now feel no compunction against using racist epithets like "goyim" to describe Christian Americans. I would caution Eidelberg, et al, to be very careful what they demand. If they continue to insist that Pollard be released they might just get what they ask for. Only release might come just one body part at a time.

Ask the Rosenbergs if thats true. LOL.

Okay under proviso that you are willing to take his place.
