Jonathan Pollard
Jonathan Pollard is a former intelligence analyst for the U.S. Navy who was convicted of espionage for spying on behalf of Israel. His case, which garnered widespread media attention and controversy, has been a significant point of tension in U.S.-Israel relations since his arrest in 1985. After serving 30 years in prison, Pollard was released in 2015 and moved to Israel, where he has continued to voice support for Israeli interests. Recently, he made headlines for a secret meeting with U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Tom Nides, which raised eyebrows among officials in both countries due to its deviation from standard diplomatic protocols.
