I believe I used the word “traitor,” not treason.

traitor
Main Entry: trai·tor
Pronunciation: ‘trA-t&r
Function: noun
1 : one who betrays another’s trust or is false to an obligation or duty
2 : one who commits treason

Pollard betrayed a trust. He failed in his duty to protect U.S. secrets, willingly handing them over to Israel. His actions had repercussions, endangering (and costing) lives of Americans, and setting back U.S. intelligence. You may call that “chump change.” I call it traitorous.

Frankly, I don’t care what country it was. Those who would betray their country deserve the harshest of punishment. Your attempt to turn my comments into “hate for Jews” and calling others “blind” is disgusting.

Frankly, I bet you DO care which country it was. The only disgusting thing, young lady, is for you not to see or acknowledge the Jew hatred that infuses the case.

Let's change Pollard's name. Let's call him Chu Wei, stealing guidance system secrets for China. Or John Smith, stealing sat intel about the region around South Africa for DeBeers -- just to make up a tale. Feel the same way?
