Israelie Planes - Remember the USS Liberty.
Note Joshua, even the little motor boats that were used to torpedo the
USS Liberty - but those animals napalmed and bombed that ship for 45
minutes in International
Waters......and the Egyptians were to be blamed by the Israelie but they
got caught.
Further a lot of Navy people remember the Liberty and will remember the
Cole......and do not think their bodies some of which were burnt beyond
recognition will be forgotten.
Saba and No I am not Arabic - and you are no Jew Joshua unless Ashkenazi
and that nazi fits you all fine.
Try another name Joshua and get to work now like a good little mechanic
but I would not want you working on my auto ...... it is made in
America.

Pull up story under subject for audio and truth about Liberty and the

This web site is dedicated to the memory of thirty-four fine young men
who gave their lives on June 8, 1967, defending the USS Liberty
against a sustained air and sea attack by the armed forces of the State
of Israel
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 171 were wounded.
The attack has been a matter of controversy ever since. Survivors and
many key government officials including Secretary of State Dean Rusk and
former JCS Chairman Admiral Thomas Moorer say it was no accident. Israel
and its supporters insist it was a "tragic case of misidentification"
and charge that the survivors are either lying or too emotionally
involved to see the truth.
Israel claims they mistook our ship for the out-of-service Egyptian
horse carrier El Quseir and that we brought the attack upon ourselves
by operating in a war zone without displaying a flag. Not so. We were in
international waters, far from any fighting, and flew a bright, clean,
new American flag. The flag we flew is on display at the National
Cryptologic Museum, Fort Meade, Maryland and can be seen there, or in
the USS Liberty Images Archive.
Our commanding officer, Captain William Loren McGonagle, received the
Congressional Medal of Honor for conspicuous gallantry and intrepedity
at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty during the
attack. The Congressional Medal of Honor is the highest award our
country can bestow. To avoid embarrassing our attackers, Captain
McGonagle's Medal of Honor was presented in a quiet ceremony in the
Washington Navy Yard instead of in the White House by the President as
is customary.
The USS Liberty Web Page presents part of the story along with some
historical information and links to other sources.
More about the USS Liberty.
The USS Liberty Memorial Web Site is a creation of Jim Ennes and Joe
Meadors, survivors of the attack,
with support and encouragement from the USS Liberty Veterans Association
and special help from John Gidusko and Gary Harvey
Joe was a signalman on the bridge during the attack
and is a former chairman and president of the USS Liberty Veterans
Association
Jim was an officer on the bridge when the attack started
and is author of Assault on the Liberty (Random House 1980; Ballantine
1986) which tells the story
The University of Kansas Military History Department has named this
The Top Military History Web Site in the United States
Check that and other awards we have received.
