The Obama administration is preparing to release convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard, according to U.S. officials, some of whom hope the move will smooth relations with Israel in the wake of the Iran nuclear deal.
Such a move would end a decadeslong fight over Mr. Pollard, who was arrested on charges of spying for Israel in 1985 and later sentenced to life in prison.

Scorched earth:
1. Black reparations
2. Release of all black inmates from federal prison
3. “Safeguarding” of all 401k’s
4. Confiscation of all privately owned firearms
5. Termination of all tax breaks for churches
6. Full amensty for all illegal aliens
7. Destruction of all USA nukes
Remember how the Administration explained why Snowden needed to go to Prison?
“Snowden’s actions endangered the lives of US assets in the field..”
That is Exactly what THIS guy they’re releasing did.
Same thing.
One guy got thrown into a furnace, alive.
He’s 60 now and spent the last 28 years in prison.
And committed treason against his country
Should we let out all 60 plus year olds who have spent decades in prison?
Just wait until Hussein’s last day pardons.
It will make Clinton’s abuse of the power of pardon look tame.
As if releasing a dying spy after decades can possibly make up for Israel’s future destruction at the hands of Imam Obama Al-Husseini
Aldrich Ames did FAR more damage to U.S. security and he wasn't executed
Obama scores a twofer, first betraying Israel and then betraying the US

Pollard is a traitor and should not be released.
Release Pollard - to Gitmo. Tell the other inmates who the new guest is, and let them take exercise time together.

One person’s bad behavior does not justify the bad behavior of another. Both should have been executed.
Must be time to start raising money from Jews.
Too bad Bush didn’t release him. HE HAD 8 YEARS TO DO SO...but he left that weapon for Obama, along with many other weapons.
I like it!
It’s a two-fer-it doesn’t give Israel anything substantial in the way of theor security concerns, and it’s a slap in the face to Americans.
He was an American spy!
That does not make any sense. You must be from a different universe.
Send him back to Israel—and Russian we have—the guy who sold out the uSA for cash—send him back to Putin’s welcoming arms like we did Anne —The Russian fem fatal. Let the ruskies and Jews feed em. What ever knowledge they have is out of date by now. Maybe we can trade em for some guys they hold.
