Israeli Spy?

Rumors have been rife (I've always wanted to use that word!) of an Israeli spy in the DoD.

Predictable responses of course fall into two patterns:

1. "Damn those eeevil Jews! Will they never stop tormenting us???"

2. "Hey, they're our allies, so it's not really spying."


Let me offer an alternative analysis carefully calculated to enrage and offend militant anti-Semites and militant Zionists:

1. Lots of countries spy on us, including our "allies" the French. Somehow nobody thinks to blame Emeril LaGasse or Brigitte Bardot for the actions of the French secret service.

2. Spying is spying. It doesn't matter for whom you do it. Shoot the bastards, unless we have somebody important to trade. If it's ok to spy for Israel when they're an ally, then it's ok to spy for the Soviet Union. Israel and the United States are different countries with different interests, just as the United States and the Soviet Union were. I expect foreign countries to spy on us. If US citizens help them, they should be punished, regardless of whether it's Israel or Burkina Faso they're selling out for. I don't play favorites. Electrocute Johnathan Pollard, and sit John Walker in his lap when you do it. A traitor's a traitor and it doesn't matter for whom.
