The U.S. Government Wouldn't Cover Up a Foreign Government's Murder of Our Military Men ... Would It?
On June 8, 1967, Israel attacked the American naval vessel USS Liberty in international waters, and tried to sink it.
After checking the Liberty out for 8 hours – and making 9 overflights with Israeli jets, within 200 feet … close enough for the pilots and the sunbathing Liberty sailors on deck to waive at each other.
Yet the Israelis attacked it with Mirage fighter jets, torpedoes and napalm. The USS Liberty suffered 70% casualties, with 34 killed and 174 wounded.
The Israeli attack spanned two hours … as long as the attack on Pearl Harbor. The air attack alone lasted approximately 25 minutes: consisting of more than 30 sorties by approximately 12 separate planes using napalm, cannon, and rockets which left 821 holes in the ship. The Israelis fired 30mm cannons and rockets into the boat.
Following the attack by fighter jets, three Israeli motor torpedo boats torpedoed the ship, causing a 40 x 40 foot wide hole in her hull, and machine-gunning firefighters and stretcher-bearers attempting to save their ship and crew. More than 3,000 machine-gun bullet holes were later counted on the Liberty’s hull.
After the attack was thought to have ended, three life rafts were lowered into the water to rescue the most seriously wounded. The Israeli torpedo boats returned and machine-gunned these life rafts at close range. This was followed by the approach of two large Israeli Army assault helicopters filled with armed commandos carrying what appeared to be explosive satchels (they departed after hovering over the ship for several minutes, making no attempt to communicate).
The Israelis clearly knew it was an American ship, tried to sink it, and tried to frame the Egyptians for the attack, as shown by the following evidence:
(1) The Liberty was flying a huge, brand new American flag. The flag was 5-by-8 feet. The weather conditions were ideal to ensure the flag’s easy observance and identification, because it was clear and sunny, with a wind-speed which make for a constant ripple in the flag. After the flag was shot up by the jets, the Liberty’s crew replaced it with a 7-by-13 foot American flag, which flew during the entire duration of the attack.
(2) The Liberty had a unique profile and didn’t look like any other boat, since it had more and bigger antennas – including large, high-tech dishes and giant towers – than any other boat in the world (it was an NSA spy ship).
(3) The Liberty was marked with uniquely American numbering and colors in front.
(4) The Israeli pilots shot out the Liberty’s communications equipment first, and specifically jammed the ship’s emergency radio signal … unique to American naval vessels in the 6th Fleet. The ships from other fleets and other nations used different frequencies, which the Israelis did not jam.
(5) The Israelis used unmarked fighter jets and unmarked torpedo boats during the attack.
(6) Recently-declassified radio transcripts between the Israeli attack forces and ground control show that – at least 3 times – an Israeli fighter jet pilot identified the craft as American, and asked whether ground control was sure he should attack. Ground control repeatedly said, yes, attack the vessel.
(7) The Israeli torpedo boats methodically destroyed all of the Liberty’s liferafts one by one (which is a war crime).
(8) The only reason the Israelis did not successfully sink the Liberty and kill all of its crewmen was that one sailor duck-taped together antennae – and took many bullet wounds in the process – which enabled an emergency SOS to get out from the Liberty to American 6th Fleet.
(9) The Israelis later claimed that they mistook the Liberty for an Egyptian vessel. But the Egyptian ship – the El Quseir – was an unarmed 1920s-era horse carrier out of service in Alexandria, four times smaller than the Liberty, which bore virtually no resemblance to the Liberty.
(10) President Lyndon Johnson believed the attack was intentional and he leaked his opinion to Newsweek.
Other high-level Americans agreed:
“I was never satisfied with the Israeli explanation…. Through diplomatic channels we refused to accept their explanations. I didn’t believe them then, and I don’t believe them to this day. The attack was outrageous.”
–U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk
“The evidence was clear. Both Adm. Kidd and I believed with certainty that this attack … was a deliberate effort to sink an American ship and murder its entire crew…. Not only did the Israelis attack the ship with napalm, gunfire, and missiles, Israeli torpedo boats machine-gunned three lifeboats that had been launched in an attempt by the crew to save the most seriously wounded — a war crime….”
–Affidavit of U.S. Navy Captain Ward Boston, the legal counsel for the official investigation into the Liberty attack
“There is compelling evidence that Israel’s attack was a deliberate attempt to destroy an American ship and kill her entire crew.”
–Admiral Thomas Moorer, Chief of Naval Operations and later Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 14 January 2004
“Israeli authorities subsequently apologized for the incident, but few in Washington could believe that the ship had not been identified as an American naval vessel…. I have yet to understand why it was felt necessary to attack this ship or who ordered the attack.”
–C.I.A. Chief Richard Helms
“Yet the ultimate lesson of the Liberty attack had far more effect on policy in Israel than in America. Israel’s leaders concluded that nothing they might do would offend the Americans to the point of reprisal. If America’s leaders did not have the courage to punish Israel for the blatant murder of American citizens, it seemed clear that their American friends would let them get away with almost anything.”
–George Ball, U.S. Undersecretary of State at the time, The Passionate Attachment
(Sources: Congressional record and videos shown below.)
Admiral Thomas H. Moorer – former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff – chaired a non-governmental investigation into the attack on the USS Liberty in 2003. The committee – which included General of Marines Raymond G. Davis, Rear Admiral Merlin Staring, former Judge Advocate General of the Navy, and former U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia James E. Akins – held Israel to be culpable and suggested several theories for Israel’s possible motives, including the desire to blame Egypt and bring the U.S. into the Six Day War.
Indeed, President Lyndon Johnson dispatched nuclear-armed fighter jets to drop nuclear bombs on Cairo, Egypt. They were only recalled at the last minute, when Johnson realized that it was the Israelis – and not the Egyptians – who had fired on the Liberty.
An NSA report from 1981 found:
A persistent question relating to the Liberty incident is whether or not the Israeli forces which attacked the ship knew that it was American . . . not a few of the Liberty’s crewmen and [deleted but probably “NSA’s G Group”] staff are convinced that they did. Their belief derived from consideration of the long time the Israelis had the ship under surveillance prior to the attack, the visibility of the flag, and the intensity of the attack itself.
Speculation as to the Israeli motivation varied. Some believed that Israel expected that the complete destruction of the ship and killing of the personnel would lead the U.S. to blame the UAR [Egypt] for the incident and bring the U.S. into the war on the side of Israel . . . others felt that Israeli forces wanted the ship and men out of the way.
Scouring the Liberty records in the LBJ Library in Texas, Ennes [an officer on the bridge of the Liberty] stumbled upon a smoking gun – a one-page memo of the minutes of the 303 Committee [the U.S. National Security Council group that reviewed sensitive intelligence operations] held in advance of the war in April 1967. The Committee consisted of a handful of top level intelligence and government officials who examined black operations and devised plausible deniability for the executive branch in the event of public discovery of an attack. The memo relates to a clandestine joint US-Israeli effort to blame Egypt for the sinking of the Liberty.
We haven’t yet located a copy of the alleged memo, and so we’re not sure we believe this explosive claim. But – given that Israel (1) used unmarked jets and ships, (2) destroyed the Liberty’s communication equipment and then jammed the Liberty’s emergency distress channel, and (3) destroyed all liferafts – the logical inference is that Israel intended to frame Egypt for the attack, and didn’t want the Liberty’s crew to be able to tell the world what really happened.
The following must-watch documentaries from the BBC, Al Jazeera and an independent producer provide first-hand interviews with the crew of the USS Liberty which prove that this was a failed false flag attack:

So am I a complete conspiracy nut job if I bring up possible Israel and US 9/11 collaboration?
YES - especially if they admit to it and you say so after the public admission.
Get out yer tin foil hats!
youre bogus all right
Government Officials Say 9/11 Was State-Sponsored Terrorism … But Disagree About WHICH Nation Was Behind Attacks
I think we all know what 'state' was involved.
Yeah, "our" 51st state!
dup
Must have been a chapter out of the NSA's playbook. Looks like the Gulf of Tonkin incident, just a different ocean.
To be fair, Israel did apologize and paid the equivalent of about $20m to the families of the dead and wounded.
There are disputes still about whether the flag was flying, and how it was mistaken for non military boat, etc.
ZWO is all about plausible deniability
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident#Details_in_dispute
Junking me for that? I'm just saying they tried the false flag, got busted, and had to try to pacify things. It isn't the only false flag ZWO has ever botched.
Wikipedia is so in the tank for all things Zio it's disgusting. If you tried to edit the profile of any of these genocide freaks who've contributed to the rise of Israel the Holbots would nail you for fomenting racial hatred.
What does reality matter if you can control the means for judging its relevance? This is basically the zio-motto.
At the same time, ordinary people with souls and a conscience will be SHOCKED at the lies and manipulation they will face if they try to speak out. Just try to change a wikipedia entry on a sensitive topic - you will realize that something si going on. For normal people - this is very clear evidence that there is an awful and evil secret.
Zinos have a lock on all areas of interest to them in Wikipedia. It was concieved as a Zino-psy-op.
They paid $20 million dollars.
Wonder where that money came from.
lol Aid from the US Taxpayers
junked for "fair"
What's "fair" is those who did it are tied, left on a boat and doused with napalm before it's sunk and they can apologize to Davy Jones in his locker.
yeah. poor choice of word
I don't know why you are getting junked unless it's hebes doing it.
They also false-flagged a hotel bomb in Cairo once during the Suez Crisis, I think.
And, guess who is one of the Top 5 outfits spying on the US???
Did they use the money America gives them every year to pay the families?
Probably.
That's before the magic printing press though, so not sure how much aid we gave each year.
I think we've given them a few US$ printing presses as gifts of state.
They basically have spies in the offices of every US Senator, Congressman, Federal Judge, and every high-up Federal official in the United States.
Right now, they've got more info on American politicians than J. Edgar Hoover ever did, and they use it.
Elliot Spitzer - brought down when he wen't too far on Wall Street.
The NJ Governor caught with his "boyfriend" while married. It turned out (from Wikipedia) McGreevey was criticized for appointing as homeland security adviser Golan Cipel, because he lacked experience or other qualifications for the position. In addition, Cipel could not gain a security approval from the Federal government, as he was Israeli and not a U.S. citizen. McGreevey had met him in Israel during a trip there in 2000.- who happened to also be an Israeli citizen and high up in his administration."
It's the tip of the fucking iceberg. (Get it - berg?)
pronounced boyg......
"There are disputes still about whether the flag was flying, and how it was mistaken for non military boat, etc."
If you do some research you will find these "disputes" resolved by overwhelming evidence and testimony. I believe there is a flag full of holes from the Liberty in a museum somewhere. No time to track that down right now.
[Also I very much doubt they paid anything like $20M to the families. They did pay some pittance for the ship though]
Just going by what wikipedia says - they wouldn't lie.
And the point is, had they been successful in killing ALL eyewitnesses and sinking the ship, we'd have gone to war with Egypt. Since they didn't NSA/CIA had to cover their own asses, so Israel was forced to pay some token reparations and apologize and it was all swept under the rug.
Thats how the ZWO cabal works.
Sound familiar substituting Iraq for Egypt?
I'll assume the /sarc tag on your first line and agree with the rest.
Sarcasm is usually a personal attack using satire or irony.
Satire is a method of using humor in order to demostrate that a concept is weak and poorly constructed...as some Wikipedia articles about controversial subjects.
His first line was SATIRE, not sarcasm.
As for Wikipedia...Even while it is highly edited and a absolute Battlespace concerning controversial subjects the writers are not thorough and make mistakes as they leave some information and fail to flush everything downthe memory hole. You can dig truth out, but you have to dig.
For instance Margaret Sanger, an American, and the creator of the precursor organization of Planned Parenthood, was a socialist eugenicist and influenced Adolf Hitler's ideas about dealing with his particular set of problems.
But that is another DISTRACTING TOPIC from the FACT that Israel attacked and killed American Servicemen serving aboard the USS LIBERTY and the US Government helped cover it up. This example was used to demonstrate a weakness of Wikipedia.
I am strictly interested in the truth.
I am sorry for the loss of your friend.
The term 'anti-semitism' is used much the same way as the term 'racist' - a 'canard' by any other name. And the credibility of both are rapidly going the way of the Dodo bird.
Anti-semite used to mean someone who didn't like Jews. Now it means someone the Jews don't like.
Except with Uncle Leo.......
Every Israeli pilot and sailor knew they were attacking Americans on an essentially unarmed ship.
Attacking a ship with napalm? Firing on liferafts?
You can't get more rabid or treacherous than that.
Nobody from a US Navy family (mine goes way back) will ever forgive or forget this Israeli act of war.
For all of Nuttinyahoo's venomous yawp, I notice that Israel doesn't attack Iran. It is for the stupid goyim to do the fighting, dying, and spending. Fucking cowards.
I hope the Palestininans get some payback one day
The AshkeNAZIs would wipe out entire Palestine villages and steal their land.
These guys would make German NAZIs blush.
Dad was a corpsman at the time. He was none too pleased. Much like when he came back from Korea and Vietnam. Places where he felt the wars were disengenous. As a redneck his idea of a real war was to nuke 'em. But Korea and Vietnam weren't the real enemies....war profiteers were.
The Talmud provides much insight into the history of this behaviour.
Weird scenes inside the gold mine.
I have been a huge fan of The Doors ever since I discovered them as a kid. I refused to believe Jim Morrison was dead.....
....until I learned about the USSLIberty at which point I realized that Jim Morrison must be dead.
Rear Admiral George S. Morrison, USN, who commanded the fleet during the Gulf of Tonkin incident that led to an escalation of the Vietnam War and whose son Jim was the lead singer of the Doors, died Nov. 17 in Coronado, Calif. He was 89 and lived in Coronado.

I dunno about that but......would the US government invest it's citizen's treasury in bad debt to prop up a Communist regime in Venezuela?
http://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/2015/01/21/dominican-republic-governm...
What did DR do with their $2.5B in freshly minted dollas?
$1.7B went to Venezuela http://www.argusmedia.com/News/Article?id=957160
$250M went to GS
$550M is MIA
Does anyone know whether it is true that Truman in 1948 received a case containing $2 million for his support in recognising Israel ?
http://jcpa.org/article/president-truman%E2%80%99s-decision-to-recognize...
That's the story. Don't know if it is true.
Shalom, goyim!
"Details of the intelligence-sharing agreement are laid out in a memorandum of understanding between the NSA and its Israeli counterpart that shows the US government handed over intercepted communications likely to contain phone calls and emails of American citizens. The agreement places no legally binding limits on the use of the data by the Israelis.
The disclosure that the NSA agreed to provide raw intelligence data to a foreign country contrasts with assurances from the Obama administration that there are rigorous safeguards to protect the privacy of US citizens caught in the dragnet. The intelligence community calls this process "minimization", but the memorandum makes clear that the information shared with the Israelis would be in its pre-minimized state."
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/11/nsa-americans-personal-data...
Good article. A couple of "minor" footnotes: Mossad motto:"By Way of Deception, Thou Shalt Make War" and Sen McCain's father was in charge of the whitewash and coverup of the Liberty. Israel also did the USS Cole(among countless others). See "911 dancing Israelis"for details.
In 1917 the British government issued the Balfour Declaration. It was a statement of policy: A framework for the establishment of a Jewish State in the Middle East (controlled at the time by Britain). The declaration was a quid pro quo. Wealthy Zionist interests committed, in exchange, to use their influence to bring the United States into the WWI.
It worked. The United States, whose citizens had no interest in becoming partisans in a European conflict, entered the war. Wilson had been re-elected as the man who "kept us out of the war." American involvement in WWI made the Allies overwhelming victors, enabling the punitive Treaty of Versailles - which led to WWII.
The manipulation of Truman to recognize the state of Israel in 1947 is another story. Suffice to say, he won the election in 1948 thanks to Zionists interests. Another "scratch our back" type deal.
Zionists don't want to fight their own battles. For 100 years, they have attempted to use American might and treasure to their own ends. Hundreds of thousands of Americans have died for the state of Israel. They thought they were dying for America. They trusted their government and their government has sold them out.
Americans have no shared interests with Israel. Their government is as corrupt and evil as the rest of the Islamic states surrounding them. America has gained nothing from this partnership except the justified hatred of the majority of the rest of the world.
Zionists think they can lay down the Holocaust trump card over and over again. They think it will never wear out. Americans are a compassionate people. But at some point, a switch will flip. The sooner the better. It is high time Americans start pushing back at this developing pip squeak nation, and tell them politely, but firmly: "fuck off"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balfour_Declaration
Lloyd George then said:
"The Zionist leaders gave us a definite promise that, if the Allies committed themselves to giving facilities for the establishment of a national home for the Jews in Palestine, they would do their best to rally Jewish sentiment and support throughout the world to the Allied cause. They kept their word."
For those that still believe the Holocaust happened, here is a link, one of many, that highlights all of the publications from 1900 onwards that mention "6,000,000" Jews, and/or the "Holocaust." Also highlights that the "6,000,000" Jews lie is part of the Talmud.
http://abbc.net/islam/english/revision/six_million_myth.htm
Eyeopening. Yes, the Nazis did target, persecute, plunder, and even murder, some Jews, but there was NO Holocaust. And what of the Slavs, gays, Russians, POWs, etc. that were murdered? Where are their repatriations? What of the millions of German civilians killed by the allies in their war crime bombing of German cities?
Zionism is a cabal of people that own and control governments as a violent backing of their plundering schemes--they ARE the world governmnet. Not all Zionists are Jews, and the answer is to remove their tools of plunder and violence, fraudulent-reserve banking, and big criminal governmnet. The answer is NOT a bigger, and more criminal governmnet that will turn on the people, and most likely be "captured" by the Zionists and turned on the people.
The banksters need to repay us.
And never forget, the Nazis, and Hitler, did NOT create antisemitism, they took advantage of what was already present in European society. Not that I support, or am an apologist for the Nazis, or Hitler, but the truth is not what the indoctrination centers told us.
.
I don't have the links here now, but it was to a holocaust museum site, and they mention the 6 million killed. But, based on census data and German nazi docs, probably 1.5 million Jews were killed, along with gypsies, mental defectives, etc. There were approx. 550m Jews in Germany in 1933 when the nazis were coming to power. Many more in Poland.
So basically the 6 million is probably an overall total of people exterminated by nazis, but not all of them were Jews.
As awful and despicable as that is, I don't see that as giving Israel a get out of jail free card where nothing they do can be questioned or criticized lest one is an anti-semite. I live and work with many Jewish people and genuinly like most of them. I am not an anti-semite, but I sure as hell am anti-ZWO.
Why didn't the gypsies get someone elses country?
Israel is the main sucker on the US Foreign aid teat, over $3 billion in 2012:
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/fullpage/top-10-us-foreign-aid-recip...
but we (I should say the banksters and politicians) get a lot of that back via AIPAC and other various 'donations'.
Such a deal, eh.
Plenty of good information here:
http://www.balfourproject.org/balfour-and-palestine/
This book by Doreen Ingrams is the WikiLeaks of its day...
By design, Zionism can be difficult to observe.
Though, if one understands what really happened, is is happening, in the Ukraine, then you have seen Zion, and Zion in action.
9/11 is another window onto Zion.
The banksters need to repay us.
Actually, I think the Third Reich was a great scam they set up to make money.
Hitler's spiel sounded good when the Germans were all broke by international banksters.
A few years ago I came across a video of a special rifle scope the Israel's used to verify kills. The video showed OUR guy's in the ME being picked off. That vid has since disappeared and it made my fucking blood boil. If only it could be found again.
