The White House is looking to release American citizen and Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard just a week after agreeing to the controversial Iran nuclear deal that’s drawn the ire of the Israeli government, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The American-born Pollard has been jailed since 1987 on a life sentence for passing classified information to Israel.
He’s eligible for parole in November, but theJournal reports that “some U.S. officials are pushing for Mr. Pollard’s release in a matter of weeks.”
The White House and the Justice Department both declined to comment to the Journal.Anonymous U.S. officials disagreed on whether the alleged push is an effort to ease tensions with the Israeli government that is livid over the Iran nuclear deal that it believes could threaten its national security.

Where are all the Bush worshipers? Obama’s doing what Bush didn’t.
Much too late. They’re only doing it, if they even do it to pacify us so he can get his “deal” with Iran through Congress. Please let’s not fall for his nonsense. Obama and the Democratic Party deserted us long ago. That includes Chuck Schumer
Hope he’s released and then the izzys blow Iran to bits.
Most definitely a loli pop/pacifier approach for a dumb, stupid deal. They’ve sanctioned Iran and allowed tyranny to develop and it will destroy the whatever tranquility the world may have aftet Imam Hussein leaves office and Kerry goes back to making Keychup for his wife!
