NEW YORK (VINnews) — Lawrence Korb, who served as Assistant Secretary of Defense during the 1980’s when Jonathan Pollard was arrested, spoke in an interview Thursday and said that he was happy to see the pictures of Pollard finally arriving in Israel because even though Pollard had deserved to go to jail, “his punishment was too harsh.”

Korb said that it wasn’t appropriate for prime minister Netanyahu to greet him, since “he wLaas no hero” but added that his sentence should have been for 5 or 10 years at most.

Lawrence Korb
Lawrence Korb will have his day in hell together with the other prosecutors
Not that we didn’t know this before, but he waited all this time to say something?
Caspar Weinberger wanted to put in the memo to the judge that if the death penalty had been an option he would have requested the death penalty. However, the agent who wrote the memo removed that language. Weinberger tried to put it back in and it was removed again.
He should have said his comments on “good morning America”
I wonder who asked him.
