I'm skeptical about this. It is widely known that Israels nuclear program was assisted mainly by the French and the British, with some fissile material arriving from Argentina and Belgium. At the time (1960s) Israel was ready to produce weapons grade plutonium on an independent basis.

Saying Israel stole that uranium is saying they preferred to steal from a super-power what they could already produce. Possible, but unlikely.
