The Rev. John McKnight, an Anglican clergymen from Australia, left Israel last week admitting failure in his efforts to see Mordechai Vanunu, a former technician at the Dimona nuclear facility, whom McKnight alleges was brought to Israel from London “against his will” and is being held in prison. McKnight, who converted Vanunu to Christianity, complained that his mission was blocked by “a wall of silence” erected by Israeli officials. Vanunu told a British newspaper that Israel has a nuclear arsenal. He disappeared in London on October 1.
