The Mossad Agent Who Seduced and Betrayed Israel's Nuclear Spy

In 1986, Mossad executed one of history's most sophisticated honey trap operations to silence a nuclear whistleblower. Mordechai Vanunu, a former technician at Israel's secret Dimona nuclear facility, had photographed the underground weapons complex and was preparing to expose Israel's arsenal of 100-200 nuclear warheads to the Sunday Times. Enter "Cindy"—actually Cheryl Bentov, an American-born Mossad agent who spent weeks befriending the lonely whistleblower in London, exploiting his desire for companionship. This is the untold story of the psychological operation that lured Vanunu to Rome, where he was drugged, kidnapped, and smuggled to Israel aboard the intelligence ship INS Noga. We reveal how Mossad psychologists profiled Vanunu's vulnerabilities, the tradecraft mistakes that exposed Cheryl's identity, and why this "successful" operation ultimately backfired strategically by turning Vanunu into an international martyr. From his 18-year imprisonment—11 years in solitary confinement—to the journalist who unmasked the honey trap agent, this is intelligence manipulation at its most personal and controversial. #mossadoperations #honeytrap #mordechaivanunu #cherylbentov #israeliintelligence #dimona #nuclearwhistleblower #1986abduction #insnoga #covertoperations #psychologicalwarfare #sexpionage #intelligencehistory #kidnapping #sundaytimes #spythriller #trueespionage #nuclearsecrets #whistleblowerstory #femmespies ⚠️ Disclaimer: This episode contains descriptions of abduction operations, psychological manipulation, honey trap techniques, and extended solitary confinement.
