In 1993 Secretary of Defense Les Aspin reported that Pollard had tried 14 times to disclose classified information in letters written to various recipients from his prison cell.

Also....

then Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger said, “It is difficult for me...to conceive of greater harm done to national security.”

By his own estimates Pollard passed to his Israeli handlers more than 800 classified publications and more than 1,000 cables, probably the largest cache of materials ever passed through espionage. At one point, when Pollard's new wife was hoping to clinch a job interview at an international public relations firm with branches in China, he brought home five secret studies on China. Her presentation was assessed as brilliant.

Me again....

Pollard also tried to sell/trade secrets with investors, revealing classified information that he thought could aid them in their investments, and for which he hoped to be rewarded later.

In short it seems that there wasn't much that Pollard wouldn't steal, and nobody he wouldn't sell it to.

Citation for what? Pollard or Schultz?

Pollard is an unrepentant traitor who continued to try to pass secrets to the Israeli's even while in prison.

A campaign for clemency by convicted spy Jonathan Jay Pollard, an American who admitted passing intelligence secrets to Israel, has taken a sudden turn with a charge by Defense Secretary Les Aspin that Pollard tried 14 times to disclose classified information from prison.

Aspin's allegations came in a confidential letter to President Clinton, who must soon decide on a Justice Department recommendation of clemency for the convicted spy.

Washington Post - December 29, 1993


If you believe Pollard's lawyers, many US officials have to be lying about the damage Pollard did to America -- this list includes:

1) CIA Head James Woolsey

2) Clinton Defense Secretary Les Aspin

3) Reagan Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger

4) United States Attorney's Office

5) Department of Defense
