On this day- in 1986 Israeli Nuclear technician Vanunu was kidnapped by Mossad
http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/october/20/newsid_3752000/3752128.stm
Israeli Nuclear technician Mordechai Vanuna, who acted as a conscientious whistle blower and revealed the presence of the Israeli nuclear program to the world, was kidnapped in Rome by Mossad, and imprisoned for 18 years!!! (11 1/2 years of which were spent in solitary confinement) He was finally "freed" on 21 April 2004, but under severe restrictions which make a mockery of the concept "liberty". Vanuna has not been allowed to leave Israel, which is his stated desire, is barred from speaking to the media, and has since been subjected to police intimidation-
re-arrested and then "released".
Mordechai sent this email on 12 April 2005, the day after receiving notice of the continuation of his restrictions.
"Hi Friends.
They decided to renew all the restrictions, for another year, yesterday the police come and gave the papers, saying they decided to continue the restriction, and thinking to make them more severe, like not to talk on NWs [nuclear weapons] to any one, So, it means one more year in this Prison state. I will continue to be very free, and exercise my freedom of speech...

Israel's nuclear program exists as a constant mockery of the UN's efforts to condemn and restrict the nuclear aspirations of countries such as Iran and Iraq, among many others. By ignoring Israel's program, the UN reveals that hypocrisy lies at the base of their attempts to secure world peace through nuclear nonproliferation. The UN, if it is to be taken seriously by those countries it wishes to restrict, must address this grave omission directly by monitoring Israel's nuclear program, and make every attempt to pressure Israel into truly releasing Vanuna. He is a hero in the eyes of those who seek a non-nuclear world. As a man, we have collectively robbed him of the prime of his life, which he sacrificed for the greater good of mankind. He wants what has been denied to him all these years- liberty of thought and action, and a chance to create a family. It is long overdue. Go to Vanunu's support site and
nonviolence.org for further information and to help secure Vanunu's freedom. The man risked so much for ours.
Buried alive
By Mordechai Vanunu
Solitary confinement is living in a grave
to live alone is living with yourself, talking to yourself in your mind remembering yourself in the past, living the past in the present, living the past many times,
In the present time you are Dead. A dead man walking in his grave. To be alive is to be free.
Here I am a blind man
my eyes, walls, can see
eight years far away from trees, flowers, sea, women, birds -freedom.
Now iron gates, doors, grills, cement in this concrete world solidifying me. Only my mind, my spirit is free-free to remember why I am in prison but not prison for my spirit, they cannot chain my mind.
And I am free to keep my belief
in my action against all psychological brainwash until I can fly from this state prison - until my dead body will rise again from this tomb like an agent who came back from the cold to serve the world in the war against nuclear Holocaust, nuclear proliferation, against nuclear secrets...
to be free to live to be alive...
