Israel Matzav: American 'justice': Spying for Iran, 10 years, spying for Israel, life

How ridiculous is it that Jonathan Pollard continues to sit in jail? An Iranian engineer who works with US defense contractors has just been arrested and could be sentenced to ten years in jail for spying for Iran. Meanwhile, Pollard, who turned sensitive documents over to Israel, a US ally, has served 28 years in jail... and counting. 
Mozaffar Khazaee, an Iranian engineer who worked with US defense contractors, was arrested Friday at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey as he attempted to fly to Tehran via Germany.
He was charged in Connecticut with “transporting, transmitting and transferring in interstate or foreign commerce goods obtained by theft, conversion, or fraud.”
A statement by the US attorney’s office in Connecticut said the maximum sentence for such a crime is imprisonment of 10 years and a fine of up to $250,000.
“The Iranian’s maximum sentence raises the question yet against why Pollard was given life in prison and why he still has not received clemency from the president of the United States,” said Shai, who heads the Knesset’s Pollard lobby. “Pollard has served more than 28 years for spying for an ally. Spying for Iran is much worse.”
Deirdre M. Daly, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, said Khazaee attempted to ship to Iran proprietary material relating to the US Air Force’s F35 Joint Strike Fighter program and military jet engines that he had stolen from defense contractors where he had been employed. The US intercepted numerous boxes of documents consisting of sensitive technical manuals, specification sheets, and other material.
I wonder which is the bigger problem for Obama: The fact that Pollard is Jewish or the fact that he 'spied' for Israel.
