The Fanonite

About the time when US-UK prepared to embark on an illegal invasion of Iraq, the BBC aired one of those rare pieces of critical journalism that have long since become extinct. When I first arrived in Glasgow, we ran a successful campaign to get Mordechai Vanunu elected as the Rector of the Glasgow University. More recently I had the pleasure of meeting Peter Hounam, the journalist who broke the Vanunu story. This documentary is an incisive look at Israel’s nuclear program, and the double standards of the West which have helped sustain it.
