" I was neither a spy nor a traitor"
So claims Israeli prisoner Mordechai Vanunu in this article and goes on to say:
"There shouldn't be a Jewish state. There should be a Palestinian state," he said. He added that the world "perceived me as a hero" while only Israelis failed to appreciate his actions. "I acted in a way that was honest for myself and also for the world,"
What a patriot. Never question the patriotism of someone who wishes the destruction of his country, that would be impolite. And as for that little nuclear project he divulged:
"I want them to destroy the reactor. More than that, just like they destroyed the Iraqi reactor, I want them to destroy the Israeli reactor."
Mr Vanunu added: "Islam and Judaism are both backward religions." He said only "Christian" countries were progressing and described himself as "defending the Arab world".
Whatever you do, don't question his patriotism. After all, he has rights.

So when are the peaceniks gonna denounce these anti-Islamic attacks and vilify this neo-Crusader? Or is it more important to give Israel another couple of whacks?

I've heard of self-loathing Jews but this is a bit much.

I didn't know too much about this guy before, but he sure sounds like a nutcase -- much like a lot of leftwingers in both Canada and the US.
