Nothing has changed...
The U.S. Government has turned the Pollard Case into a political problem - one that the Government of Israel refuses to address - and for which it will not accept official responsibility for even 13 years later. Political problems require political solutions. Jonathan Pollard has turned to the Israeli High Court of Justice to force the Israeli Government to negotiate in good faith for his release.
