= Biography:      =

Jonathan Pollard was born on August 7, 1954. . Pollard was married to An Henderson but he divorced a little time after she freed of the prison. He became newly religious and married to Canady Jewish of name Alien Zaith that changes her name to Ester Pollard. He was a Jewish American citizen and a former intelligence analyst for the U.S Navy, who revealed information connected to Israel. The Americans held back this important information from Israel, although they should have passed it over to Israel. Pollard claimed that he did this because he thought that if he had not passed this information to Israel, Israel would be in danger. The Americans did not pass the information to Israel, therefore, Pollard secretly passed this information to Israel. In 1985, the people in charge of Pollard started to suspect him. They discovered documents that were not related to his job and they called the FBI to investigate. On 21 November 1985, the FBI agents burglarized Jonathan's house. He and his wife escaped to the Israel embassy, however, it did not give them shelter and the FBI caught and arrested them. Pollard was charged, sentenced and condemned for espionage for a friendly country, without meaning to harm America. The prosecution wanted to throw him in prison for 20 years (although usually the punishment is on average 2-4 years). In the end, Jonathan was given a life sentence with advice not to free him forever. The theoretical date is on 21 November 2015, exactly 30 years- but the prison service does not have to agree to this. Pollard has difficulty keeping his Judaism in prison. The Americans do not allow him to do something that is connected to Judaism and they make it hard for Pollard to keep his Jewish religion. Pollard's wife, Ester, was sick with cancer and her economic state is really not good. Ester makes a lot of efforts for her husband. Today there exists in Israel an association for Pollard, which is named – freepollard. There are demonstrations in front of the Israeli government for the Americans to free Jonathan. Many civilians in Israel are working to free Pollard and really want the Americans to free Pollard now.

= Speech: = Ladies and Gentlemen, and every person who cares about making Israel better:  We are here  tonight to relate and to remember a very special and important person, who we owe a lot to him. Who is Jonathan Pollard?  He is a very special and important person to Israel. He has been living in an American prison for more than 20 years, for us. What was Jonathan Pollard doing? He was helps for Israel. Really. He passed important information that Israel had to know. Who can know what would happen to Israel if he did not do this? The Americans was being obligate d to pass this information to Israel, but they did not do this. Pollard sea that and he decided to do something. He endangered his life and passed the information for Israel. We remember, however not enough, really not.  We need to do something, great and big something for him!!! It is not logical that who was very helped for Israel, will sitting in the prison so many years, in shameful circumstances and Nobody not liberator him.  He is a person that care for the country but for country not really care for him. Remember this amazing person; learn from his ways; doing everything for frees him. 

 =   Interview **: **    = I am a Jewish American civilian and a former intelligence analyst for the U.S Naval who passed information to Israel. My job was to operate on intelligential raw material. In one stage in my life I see sorted information connected to Israel, and the Americans were preventing some of the importation that Israel was spouse to get. In 1985 in charge of me start to suspect me. They were discovered documents are not about my job and they called to the FBI to investigate. In 21 at November in 1985 the FBI break into the house of Jonathan and his wife, Ester. When the FBI discovered them, Jonathan and Ester escape toward the Israeli embassy, there the FBI can not to stop them. They arrived to the embassy, like the responsible, Eliakim Rubinstein say them but the embassy refuse to insert them inward and the FBI prevent me and my wife. I think if I'm done not pass this information to Israel country, this endanger the life of Israeli. And that why I'm trying the American massage the information, and also because this to be decided between Israel and America. But the American does not massage this for Israel, so I decided to I pass in myself directly for Israel. In first for no charge, and later Israel pay for my job. Today existent in Israel association for me, them name is- freepollard, and they are demonstrator for the Israel government and the America free me. They distributor the stickers for me, and they ascent the subject of free me on the agenda. Many civilians in Israel worker for my free and very want to the American free me. My wife, Ester, is making a lot of efforts for me. She was a prisoner for 5 years. She was sick with cancer and her economic state is not good. She is very angry at the Israel government. They do not allow me to wrap oneself in a prayer shawl, to lay phylacteries or even to pray from a prayer book. Many people sent me biblical books, but I do not get them. I'm careful to eat only high standard of kashrut, but I get food at a poor kashrus level. My friends send me money for prison, so I buy canned tuna and sardines, and it is very expensive. Last year, on Seder night they forced me to clean the prison toilet! When I wear a skullcap it symbolizes that I am afraid only of god. This is what I feel. We are in a hard situation now and we need to save the Torah, and to behave according to the Torah. All the Jewish people need to believe in god who will redeem us. I am battled and to succeed to get an official recognition like agent. But my name is not registered in a prisoner list of confidence office and that why I have not credits like agent in captivity. Israel refuses to relate to me as a prisoner of Zion. In fact, officially, my status is a person who does not exist. I have been in the American prison since 1985. For 23 years.

= Rationale Masset: = = = The teacher chose to write about Movers and Shakers in the Twentieth Century. When we were looking for a person for the subject, we thought that Jonathan Pollard would be a very good subject. Pollard is a special person and did a lot for Israel but people do not respect him enough. He dedicated his life for us and now he is rotting in prison and people are not working for him. I feel that we need to expose this to the world.

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 24pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-JO; mso-ascii-font-family: 'Alfredo's Dance'; mso-hansi-font-family: 'Alfredo's Dance'"> The work improved my vocabulary and grammar. I learned many new words and how to write in English. I learned a lot about Jonathan Pollard. I learned what he did for us, why and how he did this; and I learned about his life now in a prison. I enjoyed that we chose Pollard because he is a very important person, but it was very sad and hard to realize how he lives. In short, the work improved my English and caused me to respect Jonathan Pollard like he deserves.
