“Among other things, Pollard will be banned from flying to Israel and forbidden from accessing the internet”
Might as well put him back in jail.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
OUTRAGEOUS. Until and unless it is his dead cold carcass, this traitor should remain in the deepest and darkest prison.
Throw him back in jail.
30 years.. wow..
his autobiography should be interesting..
Sorry, no sympathy here. He betrayed his country. If I had been the judge, immediately after the guilty verdict was pronounced I would have given him one hour to put his affairs in order to be followed by the offer of a blindfold and cigarette.
I put the over/under on him turning up in Israel or Russia at 6 months.
I’d love to see Bibi come to America, drive him to the embassy and grant him asylum on live TV, Make him an official Likud advizor, then drive him in the diplomatic limo to an Israeli diplomatic jet and dare Obama to stop it.
“Pollard is the only American ever to receive a life sentence for passing classified information to an ally of the U.S.[2]
In defense of his actions, Pollard declared that he committed espionage only because “the American intelligence establishment collectively endangered Israel’s security by withholding crucial information.”[3]”

Few people will understand that this is Obama’s passive-aggressive way of screwing Israel.
Pardon my ignorance but in 1985 I was 8 years old so I have no clue who this guy is or what he was convicted of. Thanks for the ping though. I’ll try to educate myself

The Case Against Johnathon Pollard

Just passage of time. Under the sentencing guidelines in effect at the time of his conviction he was eligible for parole after 30 years.

Sounds like the Democrats need some JEWISH MONEY. I guess this is supposed to make up for giving Iran nukes (or at least the ability to make them).
Is Pollard considered a hero in Israel?
Pollard should have been executed thirty years ago.
And yes, I know exactly how much damage that treasonous putrid SOB did to the USA, and am aware of the continuing repercussions that are still reverberating to this day, worldwide.
Both ISIS and Israel will “celebrate” his release.
The former USSR would declare a national holiday, if they still existed.
Despite Pollard’s and Israel’s attempts to prop them up...they (USSR) were still defeated.
Israel never admits that they traded Pollard’s information to the USSR,intentionally, to the detriment of the USA.
But stupid people think they are reliable allies.
The same stupid people think France and Germany were not actively undermining USA sanctions against Iran.
Are we all having fun yet?
