This is a complex matter, but the fact that "Pollard hadn’t meant for this to happen" provides little in the way of mitigating his treasonous acts against the US -- especially in light of the terrible fact that "the result of the "false flag" mistake was mass murder."What you are missing is that the point of the whole article is that the assertion "the result of the 'false flag' mistake was mass murder" is false. The mass murder had nothing to do with Pollard or any "false flag" in Israel but with Aldrich Ames.
If Pollard is not guilty of that particular result, then he is not guilty of it. His crime was spying for a friendly country and he should have received the same punishment as other spies for friendly countries.
So if Pollard's sentence was based on damage perpetrated by someone else, where is the justice?
You're wasting your time.
Most everyone brings their prejudices into this.
Those who hate Jews and Israel will see a matador's red cape and nothing else. No need for reason and justice.
Many Jews bring their fears. Don't want to look disloyal so many are more then happy to leave him to his fate.
Loftus is a Catholic.
Like others who are neither Jew nor anti-Semite, just looking for answers.
I care because justice is important and because finding justice here may shine a light on real dangers as the article implies.
