-Caveat Lector- I watched a documentary (think I taped it for my dad but never got it to him as of yet) and to say it was enlightening doesn't quite say enough. These men deserve to have the truth come out. They were under attack for a ridiculous almost two hours, and the Israelis got close enough to their boat that they could even them smiling at them. Horrendous!! Unacceptable shit that our government is covering this atrocity up. It all had to do with the fact that the NSA was on board!! Fuckers, doing covert intelligence putting the lives of the rest of the crew members on board in danger because they knew nothing about the NSA's activities!! --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > <A > HREF="http://www.americanfreepress.net/05_20_02/Admirals_Urge_/admirals_urge_.html">http://www.americanfreepress.net/05_20_02/Admirals_Urge_/admirals_urge_.html</A> > > > > Admirals Urge Probe Of Attack On USS Liberty > > Three admirals, an ambassador and a wounded survivor > are demanding that > Congress investigate the attack on the USS Liberty > and subsequent cover-up. > > Exclusive to American Free Press > > By James P.
