[H. Paul Pressler IV]

Your Honor:

Mr. Pollard Can Leave Prison only if he is in a Pine Box.

[bvw]

Just for the record, Pollard has served *far* more time than in any comparable case. He spied for an ally, not an enemy. That makes this not Treason. The Consitution is specific in defining Treason -- it can only be charged for those who spy for an enemy.

To the irrational, the record doesn't matter.

[MinuteGal]

Justice Rubenstein should resign and go back to selling face cream.

Pollard, like all spies, should have been shot. Period

[JoeGar]

Pollard ought to be dead. From the Toronto Sun: "A number of key CIA agents in the East Bloc were allegedly executed as a result of Pollard's spying. The KGB likely gained access to top-secret U.S. codes - either directly from Israel, or through spies in Israel's government. In short, Pollard's treachery caused one of the worst security disasters in modern U.S. history."

[Lancey Howard]

I agree with Caspar Weinberger - - Pollard should be hung.

[atomic conspiracy]

What? Is there a sudden shortage of terrorists for the Israeli legal system to deal with?
Rubinstein should confine his comments to his own jurisdiction.

Spies are vermin. If the integrity of the classification system can be violated for political reasons, then it is worthless. If it is worthless, our country is in mortal danger, because we have to have some secrets, from friend and foe alike. We trusted Pollard, he swore an oath, he knew the stakes, yet he still betrayed us.

He should have been put against a wall and shot. With such an example on the books, the next PC conformist who decided to spy for Cuba or Red China or Ghana might have had second thoughts.

[rcocean]

Fine, lets offer Israel a deal.

Cut aid by $1,000,000,000 this year and you get Pollard.

Any takers?

[dfrussell]

...request to recognize him as a Prisoner of Zion

And this stupidity is why he needs to stay locked up until 1 day after his demise.

[cynicom]

Hang an extra tenner on him for good measure.

[dfwgator]

I support Israel, but Pollard should fry. Some of those secrets got to the ChiComs.

[Diddle E. Squat]

The traitor Pollard should be put to death.

Takes a lot of gall to bite the hand feeding you $3 billion per year.

[reelfoot]

The only way I would be in favor of Pollard leaving his cell is to be escorted to the electric chair. Otherwise, the traitor should stay there until he rots.

[DoctorMichael]

DoctorMichael: U.S. should hang convicted spy Pollard

[ArrogantBustard]

Piss off.

[Gang of Five]

Pollard is a traitor. He's ours, we're gonna keep him, and he's gonna die of old age in a US prison. The Israelis need to move on to a more worthy subject.

[Trajan88]

Not this again.

Burn in hell Pollard... you P.O.S.

[irons_player]

They gave Burger a pass.

[ZULU]

He should be hanged. The usual antidote for spies and traitors.

[Little Ray]

Yup. They should release him. The should the release him though a trap with a noose around his neck. *CRACK* He can plead his case with God.
