<<Summation: Israel was NOT a US Ally. Israel was more the ally of France and Britain.>> Complete bullshit......attitudes changed from administration to administration but since 1948 the US has always been an ally. but during Lyndon B. Johnson's presidency America's policy took a definite turn in the pro-Israeli direction. The June war of 1967 confirmed this impression, and from 1967 on [writing in 1990] the United States emerged as the most distrusted if not actually hated country in the Middle East." en.wikipedia.org <<And ssk yourself, if they were our ally, why did we send a SPY SHIP into the middle of their war with Egypt?>> So we don't spy on our allies now....c'mon, get real. We spy on our own people for the love of God. Just like Nadine.....throwing out bullshit generalities to back your slanted view. <<No one really has any evidence as to WHO in the Israeli military hierarchy made the decision to attack the Liberty. As I've stated previously, I suspect it was Moshe Dayan (as Defense Minister).>> An Israeli gave an order to fire upon an American ship and you are justifying that action......if you're American, you're a traitor. If you're Israeli then of course you're going to justify it.....which are you?? <<Justify?? NO.. And I don't justify the Israeli attack. They were just "clever" enough have an excuse for "mistakenly" attacking the Liberty.>> Really.......so they are now clever for having the right excuse to kill Americans....wow! So I really blame US command for sending the Liberty into that danger zone. Message 26265848
