.

President Bush officially leaves office and turns the mantle of the US Presidency over to Barrack Hussein Obama on the 21th of January.

In the meantime, efforts aimed at Presidential clemency are being redoubled on Jonathan Pollard’s behalf.

Please note: The legal term is not “pardon” as pardon denotes expungement of charges or conviction. The correct terminology is to ask for clemency — to commutation of prison sentence to time served and Jonathan’s release from incarceration. read more

Call for Anshe Chabad to Speak Out on Pollard Clemency

.
Commentary;

These two items hit my email log on Monday and Tuesday and on Wednesday, I started connecting dots.

Rabbi Nahman Holtzberg, father of slain Mumbai Shaliach Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg z’l penned a letter to Olmert pleading that they not evict the Jews from Beit HaShalom. (Monday, 1 Dec 2008)

President Bush penned a condolence letter to the “Chabad-Lubavitch movement.” (Tuesday, 2 Dec., 2008)

Firstly, that Rabbi Nahman Holtzberg, amidst his mourning, saw it urgent and important enough to plead on behalf of his fellow Jews at Beit HaShalom and that the Israeli media — Yediyiot Achronot saw fit to print the letter despite it’s anti-religious, anti-land agenda. read more

Jonathan Pollard, Beit HaShalom: On Our Minds, in Our Hearts, Prayers

.

The title speaks to 2 of THE major issues (if that’s the most appropriate term to use) very much on the mind of religious Jews in Israel, and hopefully in the US as we approach the end of Chodesh Mar-Cheshvan and Rosh Kodesh Kislev. The other two issues are, of course, the election campaign and the economy — in Israel, the US and internationally.

Firstly, Jonathan Pollard.

For Jonathan Pollard: Is it Now or …?

.

Commentary;

There is a big push on to bring about Jonathan Pollard’s pardon, release and liberation from US prison as President George Bush’s term in office draws to an end.

Below is a video and letter of urgent appeal to temporary Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, as he pays a farewell visit to President Bush as the latter’s term comes to a close, to plead for Pollard’s release.

And as we have long ago learned not to put trust and reliance on duplicitous Israeli prime ministers and functionaries, those seeking Jonathan Pollard’s liberation have called upon all who seek his freedom to call Washington DC phone numbers; 202-456-1111 or 202-456-1414 daily in a show of public support for pardoning and releasing Jonathan from incarceration. read more

Pollard Moves to Expose Regime Lies About Compensation

.

Commentary;

It seems that successive Israeli regimes have institutionalized MSM (mainstream media) dissemination of blatant lies and deceit regarding not only the extent of compensation actually paid to former Gush Katif residents and businesses, but also regarding bogus and deceitful representations of financial support for Israeli agent Jonathan Pollard and his wife Esther Pollard.

Pollard’s suit against the Israeli government, which is being handled by Nitzana Darshan-Leitner, seeks to flush out the truthful facts concerning the regime’s false representations about Israel’s [non-existent] support of her imprisoned agent and his wife. read more

Beggar Livni on Knees to Nations for Captives, Ignores Pollard

.

Commentary;

Frankly, this author finds rather demeaning that the Israeli foreign minister, in her broken, barely understandable English, can do nothing more than beg the Nations for release of soldiers Schalit, Regev and Goldwasser.

Tzipy, we haven’t forgotten your indignant crying tantrum at Annapolis when none of the Islamic men would talk you or even enter or exit the room through the same exit as you because you are of the female gender when you, your staff and the prime minister should have known that elementary fact. read more
