It is obscene that he was allowed to leave the US before dying. He really should have been left to rot in jail. Better yet, he should have been immediately executed upon conviction.

Glad he is finally going home. Like today’s debacle of a vote, few have heard why he did what he did and our shameful treatment of our allies.

But now I see much greater treason being done by our own countrymen in Pelosi and Schumer and their Shiffty friends.

Yeah he broke trust, but the Democrats are destroying our Nation.

You sound like you defend this traitor?! He should have rotted in jail or been executed. At most, his cold dead carcass should be sent home to Israel. And if I recall, didn’t he sale or give data to other countries as well?

Israel’s October 1985 raid on the Palestinian Liberation Organization’s Tunis headquarters that killed around 60 people was planned with information from Pollard, according to CIA documents declassified in 2012.

HE SPIED ON AMERICA. That should have resulted in his execution. Never should he be forgiven or excused.

He sold USA secrets for money, and got people killed.

He should have gotten the electric chair.

I don’t think we execute spies anymore. It’s much more useful to keep them in prison, and suck them dry.

Whatever.

I don’t think that a man nearing 70 - locked up in jail for many years - is going to do much more harm.

Let him live with himself. That’s the ultimate punishment.

according to CIA documents

You say that as if it added credibility to your argument. It does just the opposite.

It is not what he could do, it is what he did.

I have to wonder if this is some sort of goodwill gesture or payback for something from the Israelis — now what that could be??

Defending America and demanding death for treasonous traitors is on the wrong side?! And on the wrong side on FR of all places? Wow.
