Pollard Freed for Passover? How cruel is the american administration?

[muman613]

This is cruelty of the worst kind.

All week the administration has denied it will use Pollard as a bargaining chip in the suicide peace plan but now reports are coming out that they will offer to free him on Passover (of all times)...


I hope that Israel stands strong in the face of this slap... 1st Pollard should not be a bargaining chip for blood-thirsty murderous arabs... Pollard was guilty of a minor crime of passing secrets to a friendly nation (which would normally carry a 4-10 year sentence) but he has rotted for 30 years already... He should be let free out of simple decency. 2) To suggest that he be freed on Passover appeals to the Jewish soul because Passover is the holiday of freedom and redemption. It would be incredible to be let free on such a day.... But it is cruel because Mr Pollard has stated he does not desire to be freed in order to facilitate the freeing of terrorist Jew haters.

I am so ashamed of America for this...

Sources close to the White House told Reuters Monday that the US is offering the release of Jonathan Pollard in exchange for the fourth batch of terrorists that were set to be released Saturday night - and a possible release date has been set for mid-April.

If true, the long-hoped-for freedom of Pollard - who has been held captive in the US on spying charges since 1987 - will fall out around the Jewish holiday of Passover (Pesach), which falls on April 15 this year. Passover is the traditional holiday marking Israel's redemption from 210 years of slavery in ancient Egypt, - a fitting date for Pollard's release.

The news contradicts reports earlier this week, when the White House restated Wednesday that it has no intentions to free Pollard, after reports suggested the US was offering to release him in order to pressure Israel into going through with the last terrorist release and continuing peace talks. The report Monday night by the Reuters news agency was denied by the White House, which said that "nothing had changed" in its refusal to pardon Pollard.

Jonathan Pollard has recently been subject of a high-profile campaign for his release. He is now in his 29th year of incarceration in a US jail for passing classified security-related information from America to Israel. He was arrested by FBI agents in 1985 and has been held ever since, in harsh and sometimes inhuman conditions.

He has been held captive since 1985. This past November was 28 years. The article says 1987 but then gives the original arrest date.

Chaim was freed Erev Pesach also. Friday, 14 Nissan, 5751, was the day Chaim was released.

Netanyahu agreed to the Wye River Memorandum in 1998 in exchange for Clinton freeing Pollard. Clinton lied and then Netanyahu still signed the agreement with the Arab Hitler Arafat.

Tell this to the 70% of American Jews that support this beast.

Tell this to the 70% of American Jews that support this beast.

I surely doubt that 70% of American Jews support him now.
