Washington (JTA) - The
Israeli government appears
to be stepping up its lobby-
ing effort on behalf of
Jonathan Pollard, as the
Clinton administration
moves closer to a decision on
whether to commute the
convicted spy's life prison
sentence.
Israeli Justice Minister
David Libai met here pri-
vately with Attorney Gen-
eral Janet Reno, who is ex-
pected to submit a recom-
mendation on Pollard's fate
to President Clinton within
a couple of weeks.
Mr. Libai urged her to
"assist the president in mak-
ing a favorable decision" on
the case.
He told her that in light of
Israel's planned release of
thousands of convicted Pa-
lestinian terrorists, the
Israeli public expects the
"same gesture" from the
United States.

Israel Lobbying Hard
For Pollard Release

I

long meeting, according to
Mr. Libai, who spoke to
reporters afterward.
Ms. Reno told the Israeli
justice minister that she had
not yet received the mate-
rials from Deputy Attorney
General Phillip Heymann
necessary to make a recom-
mendation on Pollard, a
former U.S. Navy intel-
ligence analyst who was
convicted in 1986 of passing
hundreds of pages of
classified information to
Israel.
The Justice Department
will not say when Ms. Reno
plans to give Mr. Clinton the
long-awaited recommenda-
tion on the Pollard case.
But sources say a recom-
mendation is imminent, and
anticipation has been
heightened by the fact that
presidential pardons and
commutations are often
made on the eve of the new
year.
Support for Mr. Pollard
has been building in the
organized American Jewish
community, most of whose
leaders now believe the life
sentence he received was too
severe, considering that the

classified information was
provided to an ally.
Until recently, the Israeli
government had not made a
major issue of the case,
perhaps sensing a potential
irritant in relations with
Washington.
But Prime Minister Yit-
zhak Rabin wrote a letter
requesting clemency to Clin-
ton earlier this year, and he
discussed the case with the
president directly during a
White House visit last mon-
th.
The heightened activity
and expectations concerning
the Pollard case have touch-
ed off a wave of speculation
about what the United
States is being offered for
the convicted spy's release.
The Forward, a New York-
based weekly newspaper,
reported Nov. 19 that a
prominent Israeli activist
had proposed a plan to the
White House concerning a
commutation of Pollard's
sentence.
The confidential document
reportedly promised that if
Mr. Pollard was released, he
would maintain a low pro-
file, he would not return to
Israel as a "national hero"
and a prominent Israeli fig-
ure would act as his custo-
dian.
A source familiar with the
Pollard case said that Mr.
Pollard had indicated in the
past his desire not to be con-
sidered a heroic figure, and
his willingness to keep a low
profile if released.
But the source added that
the proposal's provisions
would probably not be suffi-
cient to attain Ma-. Pollard's
release, and that a decision
by the administration to free
Mr. Pollard would likely be
based on other grounds.
Rumors of a spy swap, in
which Israel would release a
