Wasn't Netanyahu involved when our soldiers on the USS Liberty were assassinated by Israel?

Excuse me?? Even I don't think he looks that old... :0)

Actually, according to his biography, he enlisted in the Israeli commandos in 1967, so I doubt he had much influence in the USS Liberty event.

As for Pollard, you're partially correct. He wasn't Prime Minister in 1985, when Pollard was arrested. However, he has lobbied for a presidential pardon for Pollard so he can live in Israel (Netanyahu granted Pollard citizenship)
