JERUSALEM -- The wife of convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard says
President Bush is willing to release him if there is a formal request
for it from Israel.

Ester Pollard told Channel Two's Monday morning television talk
program that "someone close" to Bush told her he would be ready to
release her husband immediately if Israeli Prime Minister-designate
Ehud Olmert made a formal request.

"Someone who is very close to President Bush came to me last night
and said that Bush is ready to free Jonathan even in time for the
upcoming Passover holiday (Thursday) as long as Olmert makes an
official request," Pollard said, according to a report by Arutz-7 news
agency.

She added that her source is "known very well to Mr. Olmert as
trustworthy and having close ties with the U.S. President. I am willing
to meet with Olmert even today if he invites me, in order to give him
the information I have."

A member of Olmert's staff speaking to Arutz-7 on condition of
anonymity said that such a meeting "would be considered" if Pollard
requested it.

Pollard has been serving a life sentence -- with a recommendation
against parole -- since being convicted on one count of espionage. in
1986.

Before his sentencing, Pollard estimated that the documents he
provided to his Israeli contacts would create a 6-foot-square pile 10
feet tall.

During the trial Assistant United States attorney Charles S. Leeper
in a publicly filed sentencing memorandum wrote that Pollard was known
to have received $50,000 in cash from his Israeli handlers.

***as a supposed ally, spying for israel may not seem so bad....until
you realize the extent of the intelligence stolen, much of which had
little or nothing to do with israel...and how israel then traded this
intelligence to the soviet union in return for among other things the
soviet's promise to release to israel millions of soviet jewish
non-jews, many of whom had long since abandoned the archaic, tribal
jewish religion.
