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.

The way so many people within the Jewish community and the Israeli lobby tried to paint this man as a victim of circumstances added insult to injury, since no one goes into the intelligence field without being made fully aware of the consequences of violating the trust placed in you. 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.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
