From what I understand, Jonathan Pollard is responsible for transferring the ‘crown jewels’ of US intelligence to Israel, so that Israel could sell this intelligence to the USSR in exchange for increased Jewish immigration from USSR to Israel. Many Americans died apparently for the information that Jonathan Pollard leaked.

Huckabee’s visit reinforces criticism that he is “Israel first, not American first” since he is willing to meet with a spy that did such great damage to American interests.
