All the investigations into the USS Liberty concluded that it was a mistake, that the Isrealis thought it was a Egyptian ship. In the 40 years since, Isreali has given us no reason to doubt that story. But alternative theories will always exist. There were many failures of communications and much confusion surrounding the incident. I give Isreali the benefit of the doubt.
So do I; Israel's existance is so precarious, you have to cut 'em some slack.

Me too. It's just a typical anti-Jewish conspiracy theory that people like to spew.
You don't see the same people claiming the US hates Canada and that's why our planes attacked their ground troops (twice, now).
