Pollard should rot in prison....Israel SHOULD have apologized, we are NOT pure as the driven snow in the espionage arena and suggesting that we are is ridiculous...and those that see this as a "semitic" issue, are indeed "anti-semitic".
Well said.

I do believe that Israel should have apologized, or somehow made some explanation but, as you say, the U.S. is not lily white in this arena either.
Israel is our ally. Why would the U.S. not share the information with the Israelis in the first place? I think that if Pollard seems unrepentant it's because he doesn't think he really did anything wrong.
And suggesting that people are suggesting something that no one is suggesting is a straw-man argument.
