'But Sir, It’s an American Ship.' 'Never Mind, Hit Her!' When Israel Attacked USS Liberty

Who really believes that was an accident? The bombing was deliberate so Israel meant to do it. They just claim they didn't know it was an American ship. Naturally that leads to asking whose ship they thought it was.
Was the attack on the USS liberty an attempted false flag to get the USA into a war with Egypt?

Funny how nobody listens to you anymore. You are a floating joke here and you are way too stupid to realize it.
@metal-brain saidHappened 56 and a half years ago. There is a body of well reserached literature about it, go, read it pos the arguments that have been brought and you do the community a service. You might even becoem creative and find a new thesis based on the foundation of the research, that would be great.

@ponderable saidI already researched it. The Israeli pilots got on the radio and said it was an American ship and they were told to attack it anyway. It was a false flag attempt that didn't get us into a war with Egypt like Israel wanted.

Take your own advice and research it.

You didn't mention any of the books, and there are books, which include the statement and analysis why the thesis (fals flag attack) could be valid or not. If you put up something like that I would consider itresearched. Reading one (rather opld) article from one (rather not unbiased) source is a bit short.
@metal-brain saidThe biggest attack on USS Liberty is coming from Donald Trump and his MAGA crowd

From that article and from a book, yes there are books saying the Israeli pilots knew it was an American ship and it was picked up by an NSA aircraft and inadvertently cabled to CIA offices around the world. Here is the conversation:
Israeli pilot to IDF war room: This is an American ship. Do you still want us to attack?
IDF war room to Israeli pilot: Yes, follow orders.
Israeli pilot to IDF war room: But sir, it’s an American ship - I can see the flag!
IDF war room to Israeli pilot: Never mind; hit it.

@Ponderable
The Israelis used unmarked fighter jets and unmarked torpedo boats during the attack.
President Lyndon Johnson dispatched nuclear-armed fighter jets to drop nuclear bombs on Cairo, Egypt. They were only recalled at the last minute, when Johnson realized that it was the Israelis – and not the Egyptians – who had fired on the Liberty.

Israel almost got Johnson to nuke Cairo!
The only reason the Israelis did not successfully sink the Liberty and kill all of its crewmen was that one sailor duck-taped together antennae – and took many bullet wounds in the process – which enabled an emergency SOS to get out from the Liberty to American 6th Fleet.
That one sailor didn't just prevent the USS Liberty from being sunk, he unknowingly prevented Cairo from being nuked, yet few people know about it. Another example of suppressed history. Israel almost got Cairo nuked.
@Metal-Brain
There are lots of PRESENT DAY ISSUES you could be talking about but instead you harp on things that happened half a century ago as if whatever happened has any relevance to anything going on today like TRUMP LITERALLY trying to steal the election and stating quite clearly he WOULD be a dictator on day one, invoke the insurrection act to use our own military to quell protests when there wouldn't even be an insurrection but you don't care about any of that since you applaud all he does and you would be dancing in the street if Trump managed to actually destroy democracy here which you hate.
@sonhouse saidBecause another false flag op could come at any time. This time to start a war with Iran. Seems to me you don't want to learn from the past because it will be Biden that starts the war in much the same way Johnson tried to nuke Cairo by blaming Egypt.

The elections were rigged from day 1. The corporate news media has always rigged the elections by giving certain candidates more media attention than others. Notice how little media attention Ramaswamy has been getting ever since he lashed out at the corporate news media. He should have expected that.
Notice how much more media attention Nikki has been getting since Vivek called her corrupt Nikki. Nikki's poll numbers are up and Vivek's are down. There you go Einstein. It was never complicated. You were just too busy lapping up the propaganda to pay attention.
You have to have a democracy to lose it. Grow up.
@ponderable saidI didn't know there was a statute of limitation on Israel attempting to get Johnson to blow Cairo off the map with a nuclear bomb.

Why were all the Israeli planes and boats unmarked?
@metal-brain saidIn other news, I've heard that Themistocles fired on his own triremes during the battle of Salamis.

Before you made an ass out of yourself, you should have looked it up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident
The USS Liberty incident was an attack on a United States Navy technical research ship (spy ship), USS Liberty, by Israeli Air Force jet fighter aircraft and Israeli Navy motor torpedo boats, on 8 June 1967, during the Six-Day War.[2] The combined air and sea attack killed 34 crew members (naval officers, seamen, two marines, and one civilian NSA employee), wounded 171 crew members, and severely damaged the ship.[3] At the time, the ship was in international waters north of the Sinai Peninsula, about 25.5 nmi (29.3 mi; 47.2 km) northwest from the Egyptian city of Arish.[1][4]
Israel apologized for the attack, saying that the USS Liberty had been attacked in error after being mistaken for an Egyptian ship.[5]
