Empathy From
The Establishment

A special committee of
the Conference of Presi-
dents of Major American
Jewish Organizations met
with Anne Pollard during
her furlough from prison
and, later, Seymour
Reich, chairman of the
Conference, said that
"she makes a compelling
argument."
The committee was
formed earlier this year to
look into the Pollard af-
fair on a humanitarian
level. Wary of aligning
itself with a convicted spy
(Jonathan Pollard), the
organized Jewish com-
munity has limited itself
to investigating charges
that Anne Pollard has
been denied proper
medical treatment and
that her husband has
been held in solitary con-

But with the exception
of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America, the major
national Jewish organiza-
tions continue to steer
clear of the kind of open
public advocacy and fi-
nancial support requested
by the Pollards and their
family and advocates.
"It seems that greater
leniency could have been
afforded to her," said
Reich of Anne Pollard.
"She seems to be treated
differently than others,
and that's disconcerting."
He acknowledged that
there was some
"discomfort" among the
major Jewish organiza-
tions in associating with
the Pollard case, but add-
ed that "there's a human-
itarian aspect which the
community has a right to
discuss."
