"Today the Center for Policy and Law Enforcement releases
a Defense Intelligence Agency video obtained under a multi-year Freedom of
Information Act process. Jonathan
Pollard was sentenced to life in prison in 1987 after he was caught selling
large amounts of highly classified documents to Israel. The 14 minute video
"Jonathan Pollard: A Portrayal" produced by the Threat
Countermeasures Branch of the DIA emphasizes that "eighty percent" of
the documents obtained by Pollard were DIA files. The video encourages American
government employees to overcome inhibitions and proactively report suspicious
activities.

Policy and Law Enforcement obtained release under the Freedom of Information
Act.
------------------------------------
As it happened, I was on the JCS damage assessment board convened after Pollard's arrest. This guy had "flags" hung out all over him. He should never have been hired or cleared for employment in naval intelligence. He had a clear record of telling people things like "Israel is my real home." The material he stole at the direction of the Israelis was mostly concerned with Soviet affairs. The Israelis wanted it for barter with the Soviet government. pl
If he should never been hired or cleared
to work in Naval Intel,were some higher
echelon people in the FBI and or ONI vetting
process that either became aware of his
allegiances or disregarded them because they
had similiar sympathies?

Thank you to Grant Smith for using the FOIA to get this video. Should have been released to the public years ago.

PL,
I fully agree with MRW, DIA should have produced such Video
in 1987 and publicized it widely in USA. This comes 35 years
late...
