“Tell it to the crew of the U.S.S. Liberty.” Spoken like a true anti-Semite. Too many of Paul’s followers fall into that category. Friendly fire is a fact of life in military conflicts, but I doubt Paul supporters are capable of seeing that.

Friendly fire? Are you being deliberatly obtuse? Listen to the other ship's commanders who were there that day. President Johnson gave one of them a direct order to stand down when he wanted to launch his ship's planes to defend the Liberty!! The attack on the Liberty went on for several HOURS and her U.S. flag was plainly visible! The Liberty, in all likelyhood, would have been completely sank had it not been for RUSSIAN fighter planes who saw what was happpening and reported it back to the USSR!! Do a little research on the Libetty and THEN get back to us 'anit-semites' who simply want the truth to be told no matter who doens't like it.

Calm down, honey.
This is history, not a recent event.
Anti-semites love to use this single event to try and white-wash their hatred.

There were no Russian planes involved.

But then you know that, don't you.
