I've not followed this case that closely, but it's my understanding that there were no immigration charges, those were hung on underlings. So it's bank fraud, a serious crime. I understand the concept of making an example, though I admit it makes me a bit uncomfortable in the context of American jurisprudence. Life in prison? No, that's disproportionate. And in the real world, I doubt one in a million of les Autres has a clue who this guy is. Mabye one in a half million. I love Candide.

The senstense may be disproportionate, but Rubashin is a shondes. Those people trying to help him may as well be antisemites or Iranian agents. There is nothing to be gained helping this SOB and we have only so much moral capital. Given that Iran is building a bomb, wasting it on this man is the equivalent of murdering Israelis. Those Jewish leaders supporting Rubashin and the Pollard brigade are too stupid to look beyond there own nose.
