Lawyers for Pollard ask U.S. Supreme Court to reopen case in appeal against life sentence

"Lawyers for Jonathan Pollard, sentenced to life in prison as a spy for Israel, have asked the Supreme Court to reopen his case.

Pollard is in the Butner Federal Correctional Complex in North Carolina for selling military secrets to Israel while he worked at the Defense Department's Pentagon headquarters. A prison Web site says his projected release date under federal sentencing guidelines is Nov. 21, 2015. He was arrested in 1985 and convicted in 1987.

Pollard's appeal asks the Supreme Court justices to overrule a decision by a federal appeals court last summer that the court had no authority to review Pollard's request to see classified documents the administration of President Ronald Reagan submitted to the judge who sentenced Pollard in 1987."

"The Israeli government denied for years that Pollard was its spy but finally acknowledged it in 1998 and has pressed for his release."

1. Nope. Dems need to hang tough on Nat. Security, stop being wimps.

(BTW, where's that little Douglas Feith? What's he up to these days? I wonder if he still thinks it would be a good idea to bomb a South American country in response to 9/11? Probably.)

That pic of Pollard at the link looks like a 'tenured Marxist' to me. Better call Campus Watch.

:sarcasm: :evilgrin:

2. I think he may get a pardon from junior.

3. Possibly. That would be a horrible injustice.

4. There's a word for people like him

There's a word for people that spy for other countries. It's called TRAITOR. He can f*cking die in prison as far as I'm concerned.

5. If nothing comes of Israeli spying in any of the cases then the US

may as well stop wire tapping and all else. During apartheid, Israel sold, gave and otherwise supported the S. African government with weapons, secrets, and other resources. Nothing ever came of this and nothing will. We are fast becoming the United States of Israel at the expense of the economic future of and the blood of our own children and grandchildren and i for one am sick of it!
