Today they again arrested Mordechai Vanunu. We expect the worst for him. This courageous Jew has dared to speak out against Israel's madness. This in a country that says it is tolerant. But he has also revealed that Israel has created weapons of mass destruction - nuclear bombs - against the international laws. This is why the US supposedly invaded Iraq. But, of course, we wink and nod to Israel. And Israel may well use a nuclear bomb against another country - Syria or Iran are the most likely. Vanunu is a political prisoner and his fate should be of concern to all in the US who speak out for other freedom speakers. Israel agents kidnapped him in Italy, drugged him, took him to Israel, held a secret trial and put him in prison for 18 years - most of it in solitary. Now they have arrested him again. Shame on them.

What can you do? Write your US Senators, Patty or Maria, and tell them that Israel must release Vanunu if Israel wants to continue receiving its gift of several billion dollars a year from the US. Write the the Israeli ambassador and tell them that you as an American find their actions shameful and contrary to a free society. And write a short letter to the Herald saying that we all should read about him and urge readers to learn more.
