It was great to see you and I enjoyed our conversation very much. I thought this article was interesting. Let me know some times that work for lunch with my father (or if you prefer call him directly and remind them to coordinate with me). Otherwise, let me know when you are available even without him.

This is a new policy decision of the Obama administration. Up until now, it was routine for Israeli nuclear scientists and technicians to receive such visas and to study at US universities. Reportedly the US has an unofficial embargo on selling anything to be used at the site. Professor Zeev Alfasi, the head of Nuclear Engineering at Ben-Gurion University in the Negev stated that "the United States doesn't sell anything nuclear-related to the Dimona reactor, and that means absolutely nothing. Radiation detectors, for example have to be purchased now in France because the USA refuses to sell these to Israel."
