Kam looks to cop a plea
Lawyers for the traitorous Anat Kam are seeking to cop a plea for their client after the charges against her have been discovered to be even more serious than first thought. The state has decided to prosecute Kam for the most serious crimes of espionage: passing on classified information with the intent of harming state security.Sorry, but that argument does not excuse what she did. That is especially true given that the State still has not recovered the documents.
The charges carry a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Kam faces other charges, including gathering and possessing classified materials with intent to harm state security, which carries a maximum 15-year prison sentence.
Israel's criminal code contains a number of other statutes that Kam could have been charged with violating for her alleged actions, that carry significantly less harsh punishments than the ones she has been charged with.
In their negotiations with the state, Kam's attorneys, Avigdor Feldman and Eitan Lehman, will seek to plead down the charges against their client.
One of the main arguments made by Feldman and Lehman is that by passing on the information to Blau, an Israeli journalist bound by Israeli military censorship, Kam demonstrated that she did not intend to harm state security.
The lawyers say that had Kam sought to damage Israeli she would have made the material available to hostile elements.
Israel's penal code includes a law against passing secret information to an unauthorized person, without attributing to that person intent to harm state security. It carries a punishment of up to 15 years in prison.
I think they should throw the book at her and make an example of her. She's endangered all of us.
And what if Blau is a lawbreaker like her and did not clear things with the military censor?

They are both traitors and by definition the traitors belongs to the enemy. If Israel dealt with treason justly, there should be only one fitting punishment.
The knowledge they have should make them too dangerous to keep alive since the harm they pose to the country extends well into the future.
But we won't see it happen; all the same its the standard by which traitors should get the just desserts they deserve for their wretched deeds of unspeakable infamy.
Plea???
The only leniency I would show her is to give her the choice of being put in a woodchip grinder head or feet first.
Blau IS a "hostile element". I have followed up his facebook page and his friends are deeply suspect.
Also, he writes for and gives information to a fakestinian website!
it is on my blog under "Israel's traitor".
