4. A clear case of entrapment
Brod ,   USA   (04.07.10)
by AntiSemite agents who seem to have a political agenda against Jews and Israel. It is time that highly educated people in the scientific field be wary of such entrapments. Instead of focusing their eyes in capturing Islamist-Jihadist terrorists in America's institutions like Hasan, etc, these agents are trying to treat American Jews, who have contributed greatly to America's scientific achievements, like enemies. It is time Judeo-Christian America and Congress be informed of this.
5. Is America really Israel's friend ?
Marcel ,   Florida   (04.07.10)
This is the way the US treats enemy nations. Nozette was specifically targeted because he was pro-Israel. It's past time for Israel to wake up and stop playing the lap dog to such a treacherous backstabbing nation.

7. Oh stop screaming anti-Semitism!!! #4
ISRAEL   (04.07.10)
Spying is punishible by death in alot of countries - where they don't spy for Israel. Grow up! Self-hating Jews, such as you, are giving us all a bad name. And, you don't even live here. Shut up
8. Right, but an officer who seeks contact with Al Qaida

10. For # 4 and #5
Mikesailor ,   Miami, FL   (04.07.10)
What country do you belong to? Do you respect US law or does Israel trump any allegiance to the US? If you want to defend spies merely because they 'work' or want to 'work' for Israel, then that is not only excusable but to be applauded? Why not move to Israel? You will not be missed.
11. The hezballah Jane got a $750 fine for her spying
AK   (04.07.10)
Jews get life sentence. Now, guess where the US sympathies lie? Jews get entrapped, Arabs get handed over from FBI to CIA for new job assignments. She spied for an enemies with American soldiers blood on their hands. Mikesailer, why don't you protest that Hezbollah spies get handled with kid gloves. Jews get locked up for life, while Arab spies pay a small fine. Don't you think anti-Semitism has something to do with it?
12. #7
Brod ,   USA   (04.07.10)
Based on comparative analysis, it is AntiSemitism!
13. to #7 - speaking of self hating jews!
shimon ,   herzelia, israel   (04.07.10)
first of all, noting how rude you were to #4, i should inform you that i DO in fact live in israel (will this spare me from being told to shut up?) i think before you type ignorant rants, you should know what youre talking about. so do me a favor, and look up the word "entrapment" and then look up what a "spy" is. spies are people like the american that sold the russians the identities of undercover americans, who were then promptly executed by the russians. this man sounds an awful lot like a highly educated scientist who was willing to share his knowledge with what he thought were israelis - when it was in fact americans pretending to be israelis, with the intention of entrapping him. whats more, treason IS punishable by death in america. so you claim that #4 needs to "grow up", and "shut up", and that hes "giving us a bad name"...when actually, YOU are the ignorant boor who knows not of what he writes and posts in public. why dont you do us all a favor and keep your lunacy to yourself.
14. to #10
shimon ,   herzelia, israel   (04.07.10)
first of all, read what i posted to #7, if ynet's censors have deemed it worthy. so mr. "mikesailor", as a proud jew who HAS moved to israel (from america), please allow me to inform you that i AM missed, but thats not whats important. whats important for you to know is that the only people not being missed are people like you, by people like me. in other words (in case youre as simple as you sound) not having people like you around is just one of a million reasons why its so much nicer to live in israel than in the usa... have a great life buddy!
15. #14...ah, but did you turn in your US citizenship?
Edithann ,   USA   (04.07.10)
it's nice to be amongst your own...however..did you burn your bridges so as not to return? No, it's people like you, who we're glad to get rid of...Dual Loyalists are always those one can't trust! TATA

Birdi ,   Israel   (04.07.10)
Welcome to Israel Shimon, we really need decent people like you.
17. to edith ann (#15)
shimon ,   herzelia, israel   (04.07.10)
hows this one for you edith: not only did i keep my american citizenship, but I STILL VOTE IN AMERICAN ELECTIONS! hahhaha the jokes on you i guess... whats more, i live in the most beautiful paradise on earth, the holy and sanctified land of my people, while you live in a experimental country thats currently being flushed down the toilet by mubarak hussein obama and his minions... so please, by all means, remain fixated on all the supposed problems that the jews cause, because before you know it the real villians will have destroyed america right behind your back. hey birdi - thanks for the love sister! :)
18. #5 Marcel, you sound like...
Persian CAT   (04.07.10)
one of those traitors this article is talking about with the difference that you are nobody.
19. #14 - but you welcome many dual-loyalists from Latin America
William ,   Israel   (04.07.10)
and Arabs countries who place their home country (and religion) well before the US. Do you still trust them...when you protest for their rights? But that's ok - they're not Jews, right?
20. #7 - Spying by ENEMIES is punishable by death
William ,   Israel   (04.07.10)
Spying by allies is a much lesser crime, depending on the sensitivity of material and the agreement with the ally country. Israel is not, and never was an enemy of the US. Neither is Germany, UK, etc. and they definitely do have spies in the US. Russia still spies a whole hell of a lot, and the Chinese are notorious for spying on all levels.
21. Spys in the United States
Harold ,   NY, USA   (04.07.10)
All spies have to be executed because the US taxpayers cannot pay their expenses while they are in jail. Treason = death sentence.
22. #15 Edithann
Cynthia ,   USA   (04.08.10)
Wondering if we can trade you for a smart Israeli. You bring our national IQ average down.
23.  Dual Loyalist cowards...
Edithann ,   USA   (04.08.10)
Are those who can't give up their American Passports and Citizenship.... TATA
24. israel spy
Patriot ,   Miami FL   (04.08.10)
one day all these traitors will be hung and war will be declared against the land of the devil who defiles and rapess our great America I spit on you and sprinkle Bacon on your grounds and foods I cures u a Christian promise my God defeat your devil
25. Entrapment?!
Michelle ,   USA   (04.08.10)
Brod, Poster #4 is being disingenuous. All this idiot had to do to avoid being "entrapped," was ... I don't know ... pick up the damned phone, call the FBI and let them know there were "Mossad agents" trying to bribe him into selling USA security secrets! This had nothing to do with Antisemitism from a country who gives billions of dollars in aid to Israel and everything to do with greed and treachery. This man would have sold these secrets to whichever country met his price. Why is it A-OK with you that the guy thought he was betraying his country to agents of Israel. They could have easily been agents of Syria or Iran. Would you then finally have a problem with that?
26. There Aren't Any Dual Loyalists
Michelle ,   USA   (04.08.10)
One can't call Shimon's loyalties into question. He is what I would call an Israeli-American, not an American Jew. I just wish OTHER hyphenated Americans would follow his good example and move to their homelands and stop polluting our country. I do not want my tax dollars supporting scum like Pollard and this new POS. Since Israel was created to protect Jews from "Antisemitic" acts from their host countries, the best remedy is to simply send the Pollards and their families on a one-way trip to Israel after seizing all their assets, of course. Let Israel deal with them. They can support them in the style they'd like to become accustomed to or incarcerate them, as they see fit. Let's see how Israel deals with citizens who have proven they will sell out their host countries for the right price.
27. Michelle #25
Brod ,   USA   (04.08.10)
Did he offer himself to be a spy? No. He was conned into it by the agent conmen trying to fool and tempt him into their crap. Entrapment is nothing but the art of conning people into doing things that they have never thought and planned to do. It is like Satan in disguise of a talking snake conning tempting Eve to question about GOD and thus make the human race fall into sin.
28. Mossad Agents?
Mike Hunt ,   Toronto, Canada   (04.08.10)
Isreal has never spied on anybody....what about Pollard? What of those Mossad agents arrested in NJ during 9-11?
29. misleading headline
Me ,   worldwide   (04.09.10)
He says he didn't want to end up like Pollard, not that he won't end up like Pollard, but in the end he will end up like Pollard!
30. Wrong question.
hatemail ,   hellskitchen, NY, US   (05.10.10)
The real question is, given Nozette, Pollard, Marc Rich, Ben-Ami Kadish, Ariel J. Weinmann et al, SPIES FOR ISRAEL WHO BETRAYED AMERICA ON THE MOSSAD PAYROLL, is this: What idiot thinks Israel is AMERICA'S friend? The only nation ever to extract Nuclear Blackmail against America (see "The bomb in the Basement") is no friend of ours!!
