FF Well ashamed is a bit strong, but I'll certainly admit that it's a poor source...however, it's 1 of the the only 2 indications that SOME Israelis wouldn't fire on an ally in spite of orders...the other being that 4 out of 5 torpedoes are supposed to have missed. Pretty poor shooting considering the circumstances (even if the helmsman of the Liberty WAS highly motivated).
BH I suspected that it was not an oversight on your part, when you failed to provide a link or URL to the source of the news report you posted in #50. But based on your reply and your characterization of those neo-Nazi, skin-heads as merely being "a poor source" and a "obscure source", it is now clear to me that you were fully aware of their vile nature when you posted that crap.
Like I told you before, I charge extra for mind reading services. Apparently you see some contradiction between those quotes. Please point out where there the contradiction is. (hint: there isn't any!)

Oh for crying out load BH. Freefly's post (now removed) said the USS liberty had been torpedoed and that a "mysterious" IAF pilot had refused to bomb it. I said WAAAAYY up in the thread that I couldn't find any reference to this "mysterious" pilot except on internet conspiracy sites. However, the USS Liberty WAS hit with a torpedo.
You ragged Freefly for posting "skin head" material from the git-go and all the way through this thread, even though it now turns out his "info" was at least partially correct. Perhaps you should actually read your own posts and stop letting your USC students post them for you. Is this clear enough or do I have to make little stick figure drawings for you?

Stick figure number 1. The bottom quote would be YOUR response to Freefly.
