Quote TEL AVIV — Jonathan Pollard, a former U.S. Navy analyst who served 30 years in prison for spying on behalf of Israel, landed in Tel Aviv early Wednesday with his wife, ending a tense chapter between the two countries and adding to the list of departing gestures from the Trump administration to the Jewish state. People of a certain age will remember this case. Essentially, Pollard gave US military secrets to Israel who them to the USSR, at the height of the cold war. in turn the USSR allowed Russian Jews, remember people had to defect at this time berlin wall etc, to immigrate to the state of Israel.

Pollard did deep indirect harm to his country and direct harm to a number of people by what he did, and should never have seen daylight again.
