The Sublime
Esther Pollard's moving piece on the continued sellout and false blood-libel against her husband, Jonathan Pollard (see below).
The Public Lynching of Jonathan Pollard.Again By Esther Pollard - November 14, 2006
No matter how many different ways the same lies about my husband, Jonathan Pollard, are repackaged, they are still lies. Whether as a well-orchestrated series of "leaks" to the media by unnamed American officials; whether deliberately leaked to a Jewish writer for recycling in New Yorker Magazine; or whether repackaged in a slick new book by a "retired" American intelligence officer ---they are all lies.
For 21 years, the government of Israel has turned its back on Jonathan, enabling hostile elements in the American intelligence community to use his case as a weapon against Israel and the Jews. These enemies of Israel continue to point to Jonathan as "proof" that Israel cannot be trusted as an ally, and that American Jews are not loyal citizens. Ever vigilant, lest this valuable weapon against Israel be released from prison, the American intelligence community continues to lobby fiercely to keep Jonathan in prison forever.
Hiding behind a veil of secrecy which denies Jonathan's attorneys access to their own client's sentencing docket, American intelligence officials are able to make the most outrageous claims against Jonathan, knowing that they will never have to substantiate them, or be challenged in a court of law.

The Ridiculous
In an interview that has to be read twice to be believed, regarding the rocket attack yesterday in Sderot, Kadima MK Gideon Ezra discusses his strategy for dealing with the Kassams.
Minister Gideon Ezra: Israel should not respond to fire for 10 days
Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 15 November, 2006
In a live interview broadcast during the afternoon news magazine of Israel Radio, Environment Minister Gideon Ezra (Kadima) proposed that Israel declare that it will not respond to Palestinian rocket attacks for a period of ten days.
"We have tried everything else and it hasn't worked," Ezra explained.
Ezra conceded that it would have been easier to promote the proposal if he had come out with it before a woman was killed and a man seriously wounded in Sderot by a rocket today (Ashkelon was also hit by four rockets this afternoon).
See www.imra.org.il/story.php3?id=31596 for the full story. The man sounds like a Kadima candidate for Prime Minister.
The Answer
See below for Manhigut Yehudit's press release on the attack in Sderot
On the heels of today's deadly Kassam attack in Sderot, in which a woman was murdered and the Defense Minister's bodyguard lost both legs, Manhigut Yehudit contends that the bodyguard protected Defense Minister Peretz, but Peretz did not protect his bodyguard. Only Jewish leadership unstained by the crimes of Oslo, Wye and the Expulsion can forge a comprehensive and fundamental solution to Israel's problems.

whats wrong is pollard is in prison u give away secrets of the sovereign country of united states and u got caught ok we might like the guy but sometimes its what happens why is it a injustice
ezra
No Ezra, actually he gave Israel secrets that they were supposed to have but were held back by people like Weinberger and Innman. He was sold out by Israel, who threw him out of their embassy, and had his plea deal renegged on by the Justice Dept. He has spent 21 years in prison for the crime of being a Jew while others who did far worse got far less.
