Subject: Breaking News from Jerusalem - Vanunu is arrested
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 12:59:31 +0200
This morning at 09 am local time, a group of 30
armed security men stormed the Anglican church
compound in Jerusalem and arrested Mordecai
Vanunu, the nuclear whistleblower, who was
released after 18 years of captivity just a few
months ago.
Bishop Riah told me that the Israeli security
personnel disregarded sanctity of St George
Cathedral, brandished their machineguns, scared
the pilgrims and the clergy. The bishop demanded
from them to respect the church and remove armed
men, but they refused. Vanunu was taken to
Petach-Tikwa for detention, the Bishop was told.
The arrest came when the attention is drawn to
death of President Arafat; actually an Israeli
member of Knesset Yuval Shteinitz demanded to
re-arrest Vanunu who continued his demand for
opening Israeli nuclear arsenal for international
inspection. Vanunu gave a few interview recently,
one of them is available on www.israelshamir.net
given to Johannes Wahlstrom, a Swedish journalist.
He also gave interviews to British media,
encluding a live one.
Please intervene immediately, contact the Anglican
Church, the Archbishop of Canterbury, your
goverments and church leaders. This breach of
sanctity of the Church comes two years after the
siege of Bethlehem Nativity by Israeli troops.
This is the time to express solidarity with
Mordecai Vanunu, to demand his immediate release
from captivity!
