Israel apparently committed
the cardinal sin in the spying
game — she got caught in the
act. But what had been brew-
ing as a potentially damaging
blow to U.S.-Israel relations
seems to have been softened
considerably by Israel's public
apology for using an American
spy in Washington.

Senior Reagan Administra-
tion officials have continued to
move swiftly,to try to ease the
crisis atmosphere in U.S.-
Israeli relations that resulted

from the Jonathan Jay Pollard
spy case. Their efforts appear

to be succeeding but the
domestic political crisis in
Israel may be just beginning
as bitter recriminations there
start snowballing. -
President Ronald Reagan
and Secretary of State George
Shultz were described by their
aides as very anxious to limit
any long-term fallout from the
affair, especially now that
Israel has formally apologized
for running the alleged spy
ring in Washington and has
pledged its cooperation in the
investigation.
U.S. and Israeli officials are
continuing to work out the ex-
act details involving U.S. ac-
cess to any Israelis implicated
in the affair, which was un-
covered on Nov. 21 when
Pollard, a 31-year old U.S.
Naval Intelligence analyst,
was arrested outside the
Israeli Embassy in Wash-
ington. His wife, Anne Hen-
derson-Pollard, 25-years old,
was arrested the next day.
She was scheduled to appear
this week before a U.S. Dis-
trict Court judge who is con-
sidering her appeal for release
from jail on bail while awaiting
her formal trial on charges of
illegally possessing classifed
government documents. That
charge carries with it a max-
imum penalty of 10 years in
prison.
Her husband has already
been refused any bail because
he has been accused of the
more severe crimes of es-
pionage and treason. If con-
victed, he could serve up to life
in prison.
The Israeli Cabinet's apol-
ogy on Sunday has clearly
removed much of the earlier

Jonathan Pollard

tensions between Washington
and Jerusalem. From the first
day of the affair, U.S. officials'
have maintained that they
wanted to limit the damage.
Early last week, White
House spokesman Larry
Speakes and State Depart-
ment spokesman Charles Red-
man repeatedly insisted that
the incident would not en-
danger the overall fabric of
U.S.-Israeli ties.

,

But the subsequent confir;

mation that two Israeli dip-
lomats had secretively left the
United States the day after
Pollard's arrest suggested to,
the Americans that Israel was
not going to cooperate with
Washington in the investiga-
tion. Last Friday, the State
Department issued a sharply-
worded protest, expressing
"misgiving" over Israel's
actions.
But in hectic and intense
weekend contacts personally
involving Shultz and Prime
Minister Shimon Peres
among other senior U.S. and
Israeli officials — the two sides`
agreed that an Israeli apology
and offer of full cooperation
would lead to a warm U.S.
response. The Israeli Cabinet
statement was indeed immea-
iately followed by Shultz's
strong statement welcoming
Israel's "excellent" announce-
ment.
"We are satisfied by it, and
we welcome it," Shultz said.
"We have full confidence in
Israel's determination an
ability to pursue this case
down to the last detail and to
bring those responsible to ac-
count."
Other U.S. officials have
continued to praise the Israeli
decision. "The Administration \
hopes to close the book as soon
as possible on the distraction.
of the Pollard case," one
Administration official was
quoted by ABC News as hav-
ing said.
FBI Director William Web-,
ster and other top U.S. law en ,
forcement officers insisted
that the U.S. had to deal with
more pressing and damaging (
Soviet and other communist
espionage matters.
There was a clear sense in
