In a letter dated November 18th, 2010 addressed to US President Obama and signed by more than 30 democratic members of the House of Representatives, clemency is being sought for accused and confessed spy Jonathan Pollard. The letter arrived yesterday in an email from the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs accompanied by background information on the Pollard case. According to the WRMEA, this letter was initiated by Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) in coordination with the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, National Council of Young Israel, B'nai B''''rith International, the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, the Zionist Organization of America, Agudath Israel, and former presidential candidate Gary Bauer, a Christian Zionist whose non-profit organization “American Values” seems to be more concerned with Israel than the United States. added by: Aimee_Kligman
