PART TWO
Eichmann was living in Argentina at the time - but Israel didn't have an extradition treaty with Argentina. So - The Mossad were sent over to secretly kidnap Eichmann before taking him back to Israel to be put on trial.
A similar thing happened with Mordechai Vanunu. He was an Israeli nuclear scientist - who, back in the 1980's, went to the press with his account of Israel's secret nuclear program.
He was living in London at the time - and Israel didn't want to directly violate British sovereignty by kidnapping him on British soil.
So - instead a classic honey trap was set up/ A woman (of the type that Vanunu was said to find most appealing) was sent over to seduce Vanunu. He fell for her - and she promised him sex. But only if he would accompany her on a holiday to Rome.
Within hours of arriving in Rome - Vanunu was paralysed with drugs and on a ship heading for Israel.
At a secret trial he was sentenced to 18 years in prison (which he spent mostly in solitary confinement) for treason. As he was driven away from the court room - he wrote down the details of his flight to Rome on the palm of his hand and held it to the window of his prison van so that waiting journalists could be told information about the honey trap operation to kidnap him.
Before moving on I will add that Vanunu also believes The Mossad were behind 9/11. Make of that what you will.
The Sunday Times were wary of publishing Vanunu's claims as first. Since they had recently being duped into publishing the fake Hitler Diaries. The historian Hugh Trevor Roper was approached by The Sunday Times and said the diaries were genuine.
Hugh Trevor Roper is an interesting chap since he was sent to Berlin by British Secret Intelligence after WWII to confirm that Hitler really was dead - and hadn't faked his own death and escaped to Argentina (via the Ratlines that leading Nazis used to flee from justice).
Controversial historian - David Irving - actually gatecrashed the press conference, where Hugh Trevor Roper and The Sunday Times newspaper, were announcing to the world the exclusive serialisation of Hitler's diaries. In fornt of the worlds press he denounced the diaries as forgeries.
How did David Irving know this? Because the entry for the day that Hitler was badly burned and nearly killed in an attempt on his life was entered in the diary as just another day at work.
Here is a picture of the German soldier who tried to kill Hitler on that day (July 20, 1944). It is remarkable how similar he looks to Tom Cruise (who would portrayed him in a film).
For this reason - Irving claimed the diaries were fake. Later - he changed his mind and said they were real. And later still - he went back to saying they were fake. He now takes credit for being the first to identify them as fake. But leaves out the strange period in time when he went back and decided they were real.
