"Broker"? Don't "brokers" sell more than one item in their career?

Yes, they do. And Pollard sold at least 850,000 pages of documents, over half of which were classified Top Secret. He then agreed to a plea bargain in which he was to cooperate fully with American authorities in identifying what documents went to Israel. He then proceeded to renege on that agreement.

You are conflating Pollard's guilty plea with the entirety of his activities.

BS. That's been debunked long ago. That number was arrived at by counting every page of a document, if Pollard gave Israel so much as one sentence from it. They also added in the page count of any document that was referenced by a document procured by Pollard.

His total delivery to Israel consisted of eleven bundles of papers, each of which fit in a briefcase. To take almost a million pages would require an 18-wheeler.

You are conflating Pollard's guilty plea with the entirety of his activities.

You are conflating the activities of Aldritch Ames and Robert Hanssen with those of Pollard, along with some plain-old exaggerations known to be untrue.
