Friendly countries spy on each other. This is normal. When it is uncovered or becomes too blatant the spies are usually quietly told to go elsewhere (back home, get another job etc.)

The Pollard case is unusual in that he has served 2X to 3X the amount of time that a citizen/double agent of another friendly country would serve for the same crime.

There is still a lot of Jew hatred in the upper reaches of our society. I think Pollard is a manifestations of that, and the current case may be manifestations of that.

And its not like Israel has anything to worry about when it comes to Iran and American policy towards Iran. Right…..
