Why Hasn’t There Been a Formal Investigation?

Why Hasn’t There Been a Formal Investigation?

The House, Senate and each President since the attack have been heavily lobbied by Israel to NOT do a full investigation of the USS Liberty attack.  Those whom have asked or pursued the objective have endured accusations of anti-Semitism and seen major support withdrawn from campaign funds. In nearly all instances where a congressman or senator has questioned Israeli influence on US policy, this representative is voted out of office the next term.

Thirty-seven years later, these threats continue and many congressmen and senators whom normally would stand up for US interests first, remain quiet. The USS Liberty remains the only attack on a US ship that has never received a full investigation and this has been the only wish of the survivors.  It is also in the best interests of the United States to investigate this.  The sailors of the USS Liberty and the American people deserve to know what happened.

If you believe the US congress and senate should begin to put American interests before any other country’s interests, please write or call your congressmen and senators and demand a full investigation into the USS Liberty attack of June 8th, 1967.  The Israeli lobby is the most powerful lobby in Washington both in terms of money and influence.  Our congressmen and senators will not go against this lobby’s wishes unless they know the American people are behind them.  The personal price to each for questioning Israeli policy is too high without our support. It’s time the American people let our representatives know they need to put America first and we will support those whom do this.  Investigating the USS Liberty attack is an excellent place to start.  If it was an accident as Israel claims, it is logical to think they would want and demand an investigation.  An investigation would exonerate them and put the entire issue to rest.  Rather, their lobbing energies have gone into squashing a formal investigation.  Why? The American people deserve an answer to this and we need to protect our representatives so an answer can come.

Please give the survivors of the USS Liberty their only wish.  Write your representatives today and ask for a formal investigation.  We owe it to the sailors and we owe it to ourselves to finally know what really happened. Let us put America first, finally and for a change!  Write your representative today.
