"I can tell you for an absolute certainty (from intercepted communications) that the Israelis knew they were attacking an American ship." -- NSA Deputy Director Oliver Kirby

"During the Six Day War between Israel and the Arab States, the American intelligence ship USS Liberty was attacked for 75 minutes in international waters by Israeli aircraft and motor torpedo boats. Thirty-four men died and 174 were wounded."

"The attack, which was a war crime, has been a matter of controversy ever since. Survivors and many key government officials including Secretary of State Dean Rusk, former JCS Chairman Admiral Thomas Moorer, and nearly every senior American intelligence professional say it was no accident."

I would expect to read this from the Nazi bigots at Stromfront, but educated people know differently.

Moral of the story:
Truth = friendly fire
Lies = Nazi bigotry.

My suggestion to all the anti-Semite bigots out there.
THIS HAPPENED 40 YEARS AGO! THE ONLY REASON TO HANG ONTO THIS INCIDENT IS TO JUSTIFY CONTINUED HATRED.

Until then, please refrain from posting your ignorance until you wise up and get out of the trailer park.

A great many people disagree. Including eleven investigations done is the US.

How does this relate to the Ron Paul campaign?

Is the USS Liberty a major issue for Paul and his associates?

What does Paul intend to do about this absolutely certain deliberate attack?

Do you think you help a candidate by bringing this issue out of the blue to a candidate already being criticized for support from less than credible quarters, racists, white supremecists and conspiracy nuts.

Tie it to the fundraising issue please. Or explain the relevance to the Ron Paul campaign.

Of course it was no accident. The ship was suppose to have been sunk and blamed on the Egyptians. Would have been too if other US ships would have taken longer to arrive. It wasn't solely an Israeli plan though, Johnson was fully behind it. That's the main reason there was nothing done about it, too many corrupt political leaders in our own nation and military were in on it.
