<< LIBERTY was listed in JANE'S FIGHTING SHIPS as a non-combatant. >>

You are beating a dead propaganda horse. The attack on the USS Liberty was determined to be an accident. Case closed.

jewishvirtuallibrary.org

===> "The Israeli attack on the USS Liberty was a grievous error, largely attributable to the fact that it occurred in the midst of the confusion of a full-scale war in 1967. Ten official United States investigations and three official Israeli inquiries have all conclusively established the attack was a tragic mistake." <===

===> "Accidents caused by “friendly fire” are common in wartime. In 1988, the U.S. Navy mistakenly downed an Iranian passenger plane, killing 290 civilians. During the Gulf War, 35 of the 148 Americans who died in battle were killed by “friendly fire.” In April 1994, two U.S. Black Hawk helicopters with large U.S. flags painted on each side were shot down by U.S. Air Force F-15s on a clear day in the “no fly” zone of Iraq, killing 26 people. In April 2002, an American F-16 dropped a bomb that killed four Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan. In fact, the day before the Liberty was attacked, Israeli pilots accidentally bombed one of their own armored columns. <===

You can keep trying to dishonest, by attempting to use the tragic USS Liberty incident for your own personal propaganda tool, but who really cares.

If you want, go into a corner and discuss it with yourself. It is a dead issue.

Israel will soon be part of the coalition, and together with America and their other allies will drive terrorism off the face of this earth.

Either you are with America, and it's allies, or you are with the terrorists.

You have time to make up your mind.
