Nobody loves Israel more than he does?
Freed Israeli nuclear spy Mordechai Vanunu said in an interview published today that Israel was behind the 1963 assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, prompting some Israeli officials to hope aloud the far-fetched comments will hurt Vanunu’s credibility.
Vanunu, a former nuclear technician who was recently released from Israeli prison after serving an 18-year sentence for exposing Israel’s nuclear program at Dimona to Britain’s Sunday Times, has been barred from leaving the country, talking to the media or meeting with foreigners.
But the London-based al-Hayat newspaper published an interview yesterday it claims is the first Vanunu has given, in which the spy said that according to “near-certain indications,” Kennedy was assassinated due to “pressure he exerted on then head of government, David Ben-Gurion, to shed light on Dimona’s nuclear reactor.”

I covered this a few weeks ago. JFK didn't want to arm Israel while he armed the Arabs, and he especially did not want Israel having nukes. But Lyndon Johnson wanted to arm Israel and also wanted Israel to have nukes.
Funny how Israeli nuclear spy and later executive producer Arnon Milchan didn't mention this in Oliver Stone's film JFK.
