About this Quote

Mordechai Vanunu's quote speaks to the global nature of the objective to capture him. It appears that the Israeli commando soldiers belonged to a larger team that consisted of French as well as British employees. This recommends that the objective was coordinated by several countries, likely in an initiative to ensure that Vanunu was apprehended and hauled into court. The quote additionally talks with the shock Vanunu must have really felt when he was taken by the commando watercraft and also place on the luxury yacht. He was most likely perplexed and also scared, and his inquiry of "that are you" was likely a desperate effort to recognize what was happening to him. The response of "we are Israelis, French and also British" have to have been shocking to him, as it exposed the worldwide extent of the goal.
