My comments are shown {thus}. Write to me at contact.html. You are at http://mailstar.net/vanunu.html. Ben-Menashe was a former Israeli intelligence officer. The Sydney Morning Herald, & The (Melbourne) Age, as well as Australia's spy agency ASIO, played a part in the capture of Vanunu. The Sydney Morning Herald alerted ASIO, which alerted ASIS, which alerted Mossad. The BBC produced a TV documentary about Vanunu's capture, and Israel's secret nuclear weapons program, titled "Israel's Secret Weapon". Transcript, BBC World Service, 29 June 2003, Part 1: http://electronicIntifada.net/v2/article1665.shtml. Part 2 of the transcript is at http://electronicIntifada.net/v2/article1667.shtml.

My only experience with it was the so-called "Vanunu affair" in 1986.

Article demonstrates why independent whistleblower publishers such as WikiLeaks are important. After Vanunu's experience, potential whistleblowers would be crazy to attempt leak vital data to untrustworthy (and treacherous) corporate media, or to untested publishers. Is anybody else appalled that the Australian daily newspapers and intelligence authorities basically condemned a whistleblower to Mossad kidnapping, 18 years prison and 11 years of solitary confinement (ie torture)? Note also, Australian authorities handed over those young Australians who were busted for drugs in some country they got executed in, eventually. Bali Nine in Indonesia. Bali Nine: Australian Federal Police unapologetic for tip-off that led to Chan and Sukumaran executions By political reporters Jane Norman and Anna Henderson Updated 4 May 2015, 8:32pm Australian Federal Police Commissioner Andrew Colvin says it is possible future investigations could result in an Australian facing the death penalty overseas, even though the AFP's guidelines have been strengthened since the arrest of the Bali Nine drug smugglers. [ ... ] Commissioner Colvin defended the AFP's decision to inform Indonesian authorities about the drug syndicate, saying the AFP did not have enough evidence to arrest the Australians before they left for Indonesia. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-05-04/afp-says-more-australians-could-face-death-penalty-over-drugs/6442084 Australian law enforcement authorities have as good as killed those kids themselves, in their haste to notify the Indonesians. The distinctly unAustralian attitude of Australian law enforcement, intelligence services, and politicians -- all public servants -- probably also explains, to some extent, why the Australian authorities have not challenged (let alone publicly and vigorously challenged) the political persecution of award-winning Austrlian journalist, whistleblower publisher, Julian Assange. It is the inaction (and, really, negligence) of  these Australian authorities that has enabled the 5-year British political persecution and detention of Julian Assange, who is obviously targeted for extradition and 'live burial' (ie. decades long incarceration, at a minimum) in the exposed criminal state, otherwise known as:  United States of America. Australians should be outraged that the politicians and sundry other public servants, that are appointed by Australians to serve Australian interests, do not serve the interests of all Australians, of democracy and of justice, first and foremost.
