Jonathan Pollard's Hebrew isn't fluent enough for him to have been fully cognizant of the content of Ayelet Shaked’s numerous newspaper, radio and TV interviews.
When Jonathan Pollard retracted his support for Israeli Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked, a mere 12 hours after releasing a video throwing his weight behind her, left-wing pundits accused opposition leader Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu and members of his Likud Party – of having brow-beaten him into it.
Shaked responded to the about-face by pointing to the “poison machine directed at [Pollard] from the moment he announced his support for me, [which] put [him] in an impossible situation, and I’m glad he pulled himself out of the eye of the storm.”
