Nuclear whistleblower wants Israeli reactor destroyed

NUCLEAR whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu said he has no more secrets to reveal, but he believes Israel’s nuclear reactor near the desert town of Dimona should be destroyed, according to remarks published yesterday.

Vanunu is to be released tomorrow, after serving 18 years for treason.

In 1986, the former Dimona technician provided photographs and descriptions of the reactor to The Sunday Times of London. Based on his information, experts at the time said Israel hadhas the world’s sixth-largest stockpile of nuclear weapons.
