My loyalty is absolutely to the US, but this case puzzles me. Here is why. The Pollard case centered on information that the US was required to pass onto Israel but hadn't. Additionally the information was not only used by Israel but was beneficial to the US that Israel have it. To top it off he got a sentence that was harsher than a spy who killed his own countrymen. That to me is puzzling and there are theories that there is more involved in this case than what people know.
Methinks Pollard was made an example pour encourager les autres from the sentence handed down by the court. Moreover, it came on the heels of the ultimate act of treason: the Walker family spy ring. (IMHO, the Walkers, along with Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen, should have been summarily executed - after we extracted all the information outta them.)
