Very Briefly. Pollard's sentence is totally out of proprotion with the crime. So was the Rosenberg's---but that is fodder for another thread dealing with a different time and temperment in our land and a judge who (Jewish) did not want to show any favoritism---and more.

None of us are privy to the inner workings of our government, let alone those of other nations (read--Israel). Suffice it to say, though, the destruction of the Iraqi reactor was welcomed by the U S and I can only assume other nations and brethren of the "mad dog".

I would suggest that the destruction of said reactor brought the world more security from nuclear destruction than Geo. W's ill advised and self serving attack on Iraq---which seems to have only exasperated an already bad situation.   I think the hostages, the terror alerts, and the home nations to the hostages will attest to that.
