Biting the hand that feeds - and then chewing

Suppose you have a very generous benefactor. Would irritating it beyond measure be a career move? I would think not, so I offer up this tale from Haaretz:

"The extreme right-wing Our Land of Israel party has offered the top spot on its Knesset list to convicted spy Jonathan Pollard, who is currently serving a life sentence in a United States Federal Prison for espionage".

Pollard's family do not supporty the move, and I would think it unlikely that any of the parties likely to win Knesset seats will go along with OLoI's idea.
