Items related to Hunting Horse: The Truth Behind the Jonathan Pollard...
In 1987 former Naval Intelligence analyst Jonathan Jay Pollard was sentenced to life in prison for passing classified information to the Israelis - the only person ever to be so severely punished for spying on behalf of an American ally. Many have asked why the federal government chose to punish Pollard so severely. Why was his sentence so harsh? What, exactly, did he know? And why was he really so dangerous?
The Hunting Horse reveals for the first time why Pollard had to be silenced. The harshness of his sentence was not the result of any damage he may have caused to the security of the United States. His greatest crime, author Elliot Goldenberg insists, was that he inadvertently stumbled upon - and exposed - America's secret arming of Iraq with biological and chemical weapons.
Based on numerous interviews with top intelligence operatives, Goldenberg provides a rare glimpse into a world of secret agendas and covert operations that is too often kept hidden from congressional oversight and public scrutiny.
