Unless it happened in Britain.
Clive Ponting discovered the Government (Thatcher's) was deliberately misleading Parliament over the cost of Trident. He was prosecuted for breaching the Official Secrets Act. The Judge, in his summing up, patiently showed that he had indeed breached the Act.
The jury, in a magnificent "**** you" that single-handedly justified the presence of juries in criminal trials, found him not guilty and he walked free.The genesis of the "evil Finn" concept- Evil, evil FinlandComment

That was a defence secret. It was a key factor in the decision as to whether Trident nuclear missiles were adopted.The genesis of the "evil Finn" concept- Evil, evil FinlandComment

How is kidnapping someone in a foreign country even close to being within the rule of law?

Kidnappings, assasinations all that is what intelligence organzations do Buck. Particularly the axis of evil : USA, Israel. Russia does it too but just for the sake of tradition.Que l’Univers n’est qu’un défaut dans la pureté de Non-être.

The guy's an idiot. Israel has nukes so that Arab countries won't dare to directly attack it and proceed to destroy it. It does not have them because they want to nuke everyone off the planet or something.
That said, he's a traitor; however though treason in any other country is defined as doing what he did, in Israel there also has to be proof that he did it maliciously (I think), and that is why he wasn't tried for treason."You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James NapierComment

Tell me Zevico, how did Vanunus revelations actually hurt the israel? At the end I think he was more like doing a favour to israel by going public about its nukes. He should be rewarded by israel.Que l’Univers n’est qu’un défaut dans la pureté de Non-être.

It has always puzzled me why Israel has been so close mouthed about it's nukes.
The whole point of a deterrant is that you tell your enemies about it, you advertise it, you test it.
If you don't, it stops being a detterent.
So maybe, Vananu did Israel a favour that it's leaders were too stupid, stubborn, or arrogant to work out for themselves.
He has no regrets so I can't see why I should on his behalf.Some cry `Allah O Akbar` in the street. And some carry Allah in their heart.
