I'm not calling Israel shameless. I'm calling the coterie of Pollard's supporters, some within the Israeli government who are simply placating a vocal constituency, and some Americans who don't have the same excuse, shameless. Sharon and his predecessors, and those who will come after Sharon, know perfectly well Pollard will die in his U.S. prison cell; they're just giving lip service because it serves their interests in their own country to do so. Americans who excuse Pollard's treachery, on the other hand, are particularly shameless.
