What’s wrong with this picture?

What’s wrong with this picture?     The answer is simple.

It’s that obvious.  A child can see it.

By J. Davis,  Monday,  April 19th, 2010

We all probably remember the old joke about being asked to point out the pack of camels in the picture of the ALL SEEING EYE  in the pyramid on the back of a single US dollar bill.  The person would look and study the Great Seal of the United States in vain after a time and call “shenanigans!”. The person would then tell them that they are in back of of the pyramid!

Good grief.

Here is a copy of what it looks like and there are no camels to be seen anywhere.  It is that obvious.  It’s right in front of you.   But it still remains, what you cannot see

No camels anywhere to be seen. It still remains on what you cannot see.

The joke was lame  and it still is.

Dishonest deliberate  subterfuge always is.


Now let’s look at this  well distributed, well known picture of the USS Liberty (AGTR-5):

The USS Liberty (AGTR-5), the Ship Israel and the IDF and the apologists couldn't sink.

Here’s another well known distributed picture of same.

Let’s look at this one:

The ship the State of Israel, the IDF and the apologists couldn't and still cannot sink.

What do you see and what do you not see?

The liars and the apologists say  “So what?…No big deal”, Israel is an ally. There have been multiple investigations claimed by all of them such as “Liberty apologist” historians  Michel Oren and A. Jay Cristol which they shout from the rooftops  stating  that Israel is  our bestest buddies in the whole wide world and that it was an “accident” in the proverbial  “fog of war”.   The US government and the State of  Israel or the Liberty apologists would never collude, divert,  conspire, obfuscate, ignore,  lie or shanghai the truth about the attack on June 8th, 1967 Never mind that the ship was in international waters.  The record speaks for itself they tell is.

Here’s some of the proof used.  It’s  in books , conferences, web pages, government reports, and in numerous  “investigations” and on and on over 40+ years

“Then, at 11:24, a terrific explosion rocked the shores of El-Arish. The blast was clearly heard by the men on the Liberty’s bridge, who had been navigating according to the town’s tallest minaret, and who also noted a thick pall of smoke wafting toward them. In El-Arish itself,  Israeli forces were convinced they were being bombarded from the sea, … Israeli sources had reported shelling of the area by Egyptian warships the previous day. There was therefore good reason to conclude that the Egyptian navy had trained its guns on Sinai.“  - “The USS Liberty: Case Closed”, Azure Magazine by Michael B. Oren, US born historian  now currently US Ambassador  for Israel.

A. Jay Cristol chimed in with his expertise.

“Perhaps if the Liberty had not been in sight, about fourteen miles off the coast, the Israeli army units would not have come to the conclusion they were shelled from the sea“   – Ahron Jay Cristol,  -”The Liberty Incident“(2002) , pg.34Cristol’s statement uses information and his footnote comes from  James Ennes’s  “Assault on the Liberty“, (1978) whom Cristol  disparages at any mention of his name or his book in his “self acclaimed” definitive analysis.

The Israeli Defense Force Department of History Report (June 1982) stated in their report to obfuscate the truth in the aftermath and to counter the damning truth of James Enners’  “The Assault in the USS Liberty” (1978)”

The Israel Defense Forces History Department Report  stated”

“The Head of [Israeli] Operations Section concluded that when the torpedo boats made contact with the vessel that was shelling the coast, they should request close air support from the IAF.”  -  IDF History Dept. Report, pg. 10, June , 1982

There are numerous other reports and mentions of this event and it is  the sole motivation for the Israeli actions of June 8th, 1967.

Warning!, Warning! …Danger Will Robinson!

So IDF forces on the beach were under attack from “shelling from the sea”. Let’s go get the perps. There are many versions and diversions of this story and the ways and the means.

One simple fact has always remained and is that the USS Liberty sailing in international waters as an intelligence gathering ship NEVER had this capability. It was impossible for this ship with just 4 .50 caliber machine guns , over 50 “lobster like antennas” to  bombard any shore on planet Earth or even on the weightless environment of the moon. Alan Shepard could drive a golf ball for thousands of yards yet the USS Liberty still couldn’t fire a shell because it NEVER had the means to do so even in a fantasy environment. It was and never could have been a threat in fantasy

Look at any  five inch gun on a naval ship.  I gathered these on Google images. Also note that a five inch naval gun still could not achieve the 12, 13, 14 mile range. I post them to show how prominent and large and easily identifiable that are.

5-inch gun,  .38 caliber mount on USS New Jersey 1984, Look at the tiny people.

5-inch gun, .38 caliber mount on USS New Jersey (WW2 ship just like the USS Liberty) in 1984, Look at the tiny people.

A 5inch gun .38 cal. on Open Mount circa 1942, The USS Liberty was aW2 vessel in origin. It still couldn't hit El Arish from 14 miles as Cristol and the IDF said. The range is a little over 10 miles.

Mk 30 single enclosed base 5 in. gun on a Fletcher-class destroyer.

Let me state that I am no expert nor am I at all expertly knowledgeable about shore bonbardment/naval armaments. I based this on a historical naval armaments website.

For the record, the shore bombardment in question never happened at all as there was never any ship to shore bombardment at El Arish in the Sinai, only explosions on June 8th, 1967  yet the IDF launches coordinated  two air wings of different aircraft with different armaments and three MTB’s  (motor torpedo boats)  to hunt down and stop this action so  they state.  Whether they took  this reactive action for all reports of ship to shore attacks and the IDF claim  all  were false or just for the USS Liberty sighting, we don’t know.

Israel and the IDF aren’t telling and the US government never asked.  Not once. None of the9, 1 , 12, 13 investigations  never asked either as Jay Cristol claimed.  The 11 investigations about the USS Liberty attack “Top Gun” Cristol cites in his book like the shore bombardment at El Arish on June 8th  never happened either.

It’s still a mystery since this  issue has  been ignored. Cristol as the “last word” doesn’t know as he stated so in the footnote s of his book.  There’s never been an open honest first time investigation. Only a cover up requires mandatory avoidance of the obvious.

Israeli troops are on the beach under fire,  time is of the essence. This is the official story. These are the facts we are officially told.  These guns are not small, portable or camouflagable.   A naval six inch naval might cover  the distance of 13-14 miles on  a ship with that armament capability.  The USS Liberty was without question incapable of such damage, action, intent, design or capability. It was was Belmont class WW2 “Liberty cargo ship”, the most  mass produced naval ship of the 20th century, known through out the world seas.  Like a VW Bug, everybody knows what one looked like.

Here’s a You Tube video of small size naval guns during an bombardment at work.  These are not “smart munitions” either for people who think they always existed.   These ship guns are enormous!  and could probably be spotted from the Space Shuttle. Any gun larger than 6″ is mindbogglingly  destructive and massive in size and  operation.  LINK Only the blind and ignorant like the US government and Israel would pretend otherwise.  The video is from and  during the Korean war it claims.   Search for more on Naval shore bombardment videos  and see just how asinine the Israeli IDF claims are about rationale and motives are.   As to the “fog of war”, it was a clear, bright mid- sunny day on the attack and there were 8 previous Israeli IAF reconnaissance flights before the attack.  Or reconnoitering?, attack planning?, attack coordination?, lull into complacency? …who really knows as there’s never been a investigation on the why’s of the attack.

So your army comrades are on the beach under “bombardments from the see”.  There  are explosions and smoke for miles.  Yet the IDF aircraft CANNOT SEE NOR EVER MENTIONED any armaments necessary for shore bombardment. No guns on a ship means not responsible for shore  bombardments. Pretty cut and dried.  It’s common sense.

  • Does a policeman pursue, identify and shoot the the dangerous person with a gun or the unarmed person who is no threat at all nor has the capability of ever having endangered his fellow policeman “back on the beach“?  Of course not.
  • Does a infantry patrol reacting to the urgent order to pursue an armed enemy who is reported to have endangered soldiers elsewhere or does it attack unarmed soldiers incapable of doing such?  What’s more urgent?
  • Does a pilot pursue a naval ship that obviously has no shore guns at all or does it keep looking for the ship that has that capability?
  • Does a ship or ships in pursuit of a enemy vessel that is bombarding your army on the beach and all that is required to do it  or does it  approach a ship without warning that van be easily and visually determine a ship  incapable of firing any kind of naval gun required for shore bombardments?   In fact,  it’s impossible if you cannot see any shore gun at all.
  • You look elsewhere …remember your boys back on the beach are counting on you even if  said event of motivation for action never happened in the first place.

So why would you?, how can it be an accident when the obvious of what you cannot see is staring you in the face?  Even a little child knows this.  A trained pilot cannot see enormous ship guns but without warning attacks a  ship with no guns and concluding  it  is the one the one bombarding El Arish?

What was their mission then?  What was the real purpose?  No US-Israel government asked the obvious except those who were there and were attacked and they are still called “conspiracy theorists”, “liars”, “haters” and “anti-Semites” ,are still vilified, smeared, ignored, forsaken,  slandered and discounted for stating the simple obvious and asking for the  of how and why from government officialdom that cannot stand scrutiny?

It’s that damn obvious yet issues of flag size, speed of boats, radio coms, blips and scale, this and that dominate and purposely confuse while no one except the survivors ask how could you not see enormous ship guns that cannot disappear or hide and conclude it is an enemy vessel of doing something it cannot??

The “official US -Israeli version of the attack is a damn joke. 34 dead, 173 were wounded and there are still governments, apologists, duplicitous liars and dupes who still say it was an “accident”? And nobody knows why after 40+ years while the armed criminals got away.

The joke was lame  and it still is.

Dishonesty and subterfuge always are.
