Comment on WHO SAYS THE LIBERTY ATTACK WAS DELIBERATE? by Rich Carlson

One pass by an airplane shooting 1 rocket MIGHT be an accident. Thirty minutes, 800+ holes in the ship, dropping naplam (!), torpedoes, shooting unarmed litter carriers on deck, life rafts, 2 hours of overhead flights to check us out, over 30 dead, over 100 injured is NOT an accident.

Well said and an honest and first time open investigation would answer these questions.

History will not be kind to these apologists and “Israel First liars” .

Thanks for your comments

It’s amazing that there were supposedly six attempts to get the Liberty to move back and none of them were received. It’s also amazing that no one in a position of power seems concerned that all the topside crew said the flags were flying in the breeze, and the log states there was a breeze, yet the Israeli account is believed over our own soldiers and officers. You read that the NSA leadership at the time said they had documentation that the attack was deliberate. You have three lifeboats shot up, with one torpedo boat so close that it takes one out of the water. You have James Bamford, an expert on the NSA, saying in his book that the Israeli Naval Musuem has the bell and wheel of the successful torpedo boat in it’s musuem (is that usually done for “accidents”?).

You have to wonder, with the U.S. fighters recalled twice to their ships, the media coverup, the survivors having to take their own dead and wounded off the ship, and the survivors being told to shut up under threat of court martial, if there was collusion between certain Israeli and U.S. leadership…

Susan: Thank you for posting. From your dad’s sad event to other “incidents”, IMHO, there is nothing the US government its military or any government for that matter will not do to to “cover their asses” for an agenda. Nothing operates in a vacuum. Remarkable how any written record of anything critical or a revelation is always ‘missing, lost or destroyed’. As to missing reports like tapes and files ‘classified” into the USS Liberty like your father’s, they are probably stil there and ”misfiled, mislaid, miscategorized, etc.”…… the venerable excuses of a bureaucracy among these subserviant gatekeepers of the official truth.. And we have only their word and unaccountability of it. Your sought after reports will magically appear one day for some historian who will ‘find” them, write a footnote in a history book to a public that doesn’t remember or care and feels no outrage. It’s standard operating procedure. Look at the continuing obstinate and official reluctance of Congress to look into an “accident” that clearly wasn’t? Even the Freedom of Information Act has been amended, altered and exempted for the government’s benefit. to prevent accountability.
The lesson is that government exists to protect itself first and foremost in every manner. The truth and the public are a matter of later convenience.

As to Sicily and Italy and the criminal incompetence of Gen. Mark Clark, a friend who was with the Texas 36th Division would literally “spit” anywhere at the mention of his name. He died scarred and crippled from his military service. (I still remember Mr. Keith) Good luck with your research and your book and please keep me posted. And may you find the answers and the peace and the knowledge you seek -jdavis

There were only 2 weeks of morning reports missing which includes the time Dad had his incident.

I have a google alert for Sicily, 1943, so that is why I found your account of the obscene cover-up that you describe above. I am writing a book about searching my Dad’s path thru Sicily in WW2 as an Engineer Soldier. The focus has finally been narrowed down to NO SHAME, both for him & also NO SHAME for blunders made in decisions regarding this invasion. As for most accounts of family members of returning soldiers that were in a combat zone, they are quoted as never being the same. Well my Dad had more disgrace because he felt a failure to his unit and he felt he was sent home as a “basket case”. The incident in question happened on a rear boundary – Dad was receiving fire from both sides (shells & mortars) and remembers having rocks and stuff come down on him. Apparently he was not physically harmed, but was yanked out and sent to a psych station hospital. Dad had many accomplishments in his lifetime, beyond belief, despite his continual anxiety & depression. He still felt a failure. He always spoke of a carbon monoxide incident. I am wondering if there was a cover-up and how I could search for this. A visit to NARA, military records in St Louis, showed that morning reports were missing for his company. In searching payroll rosters, we finally got an approximate date — it indicated when he was cut off from the payroll for that unit. Interesting, 2 other soldiers had the same date. Anyone have any ideas?? Susan
