Pollard medical condition stable; wife calls on Peres to save him
Pollard medical condition stable; wife calls on Peres to save him
Justice4JP Release – December 9, 2012
Jonathan Pollard spent last week undergoing a battery of tests and medical
consultations, including an MRI brain scan. Test results are not yet known.
After a week in hospital, Pollard’s condition was stable enough for him to
be returned to FCI Butner to be monitored by the prison clinic pending test
results.
Pollard’s wife, Esther, expressed bitter disappointment at the lack of
any meaningful initiative on the part of Israel to secure Jonathans
release, especially at this time”
Mrs. Pollard issued a heartrending appeal to President Shimon Peres:
“From the bottom of my heart, I implore you, President Peres, both as the
recipient of the American medal of freedom and as the former prime minister
who bears a personal responsibility for Jonathans dire plight, to save his
life!
Because of your close relationship with President Obama and in light of the
massive American support for Jonathan’s release from a “grossly
disproportionate sentence” there are no more excuses! Time is running out!
Mr. Peres, please, act without delay!”
Rabbi Pesach Lerner, Executive VP emeritus of the National Council of Young
Israel, who leads the American campaign for Pollard adds:”Chanukah is a
perfect opportunity for President Peres to ask for this humane gesture from
President Obama. It is a matter of justice. It is a humanitarian issue. Most
important of all, it is a matter of saving a life. What is Peres waiting
for?”
