Huckabee Meets Pollard: White House Unaware

Unscheduled Meeting: U.S. Ambassador to Israel Meets with Convicted Spy Jonathan PollardThe White House recently acknowledged its lack of knowledge regarding a private meeting between U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee and Jonathan Pollard, a former U.S. Navy analyst who served 30 years in prison for spying for Israel. The meeting, which took place in July at the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, was not on Ambassador Huckabees official schedule and caught U.S. officials off guard. Pollard requested the meeting to express his gratitude to Ambassador Huckabee for his advocacy during his imprisonment. This encounter has raised concerns among U.S. intelligence agencies, as it deviates from the usual practice of avoiding contact with convicted spies and may signal a shift in the U.S. stance on espionage by allies.
