On Monday around 5 PM in Israel, Mordechai Vanunu, Israel's Nuclear Whistle blower reported.....

"Oct. 3, 2011. The court heard my appeal against Israel Gov' Not to leave the country, and not to meet foreigners. The Prosecutor repeat all the same arguments, against me, nothing changed. The 3 Judges will decide in few days. About canceling my Israel citizenship, the 75 days past and the Gov' did not answer the court yet. Israel system is Delaying everything. Waiting For my Freedom Now 25 years.!!!!!!!!!" vanunuvmjc  


A few hours later, I edited Vanunu's WIKI page, under "Arrests and hearings" with the quote from Vanunu's YouTube Channel.

I had last edited Vanunu's WIKI page on 31 August 2011 to add an article that published Vanunu's report on that day, but it was immediately deleted by a WIKI editor, although it has resurfaced as footnote 71:

  On 31 August 2011, Vanunu wrote: "The court hearing about the restrictions, not to speak to foreigners, not to leave Israel will be on Oct' 3 [it is possible the date can be_ changed]. About canceling my Israel citizenship, we are waiting to hear from Interior minister or we will have one more court hearing." [71]

 

I learned that it had reappeared when I returned to Vanunu's WIKI page on October 3rd to post the following update under "Arrests and hearings" but when I returned less than 24 hours later, I learned it had been censored as in deleted by WIKI editor who claimed the direct update from Vanunu as "Inappropriate".

 

I posted: 19:28, 3 October 2011 Eileen fleming (talk | contribs) (55,812 bytes) (Arrests and hearings: update direct from Vanunu )

  On 3 October 2011, Vanunu wrote: "The court heard my appeal against Israel Govt. Not to leave the country and not to meet foreigners. The Prosecutor repeat all the same arguments against me, nothing changed. The 3 Judges will decide in few days. About canceling my Israel citizenship; the 75 days past and the Govt. did not answer the court yet. Israel system is Delaying everything. Waiting For my Freedom Now 25 years!" [1]

 

The only correspondence from WIKI regarding WHY they censored Vanunu's words came at 00:13, 4 October 2011 Bbb23 (talk | contribs) (55,345 bytes) ( Undid revision 453753432 by Eileen fleming ( talk ) - inappropriate edit from WP:SPS)

 

 

It is also now nearly 24 hours after Vanunu reported the "Israel system is delaying everything" but a Google search for NEWS on Vanunu only turns up what I posted at OpedNews yesterday:
