Israel's deadly attack on USS Liberty emerges from the past
Before Israeli commandos shot 9 peace activists to death aboard the Mavi Marmara, 34 American military men were killed by Israeli jet fighter planes. It happened in 1967 during the 6 day war and it became an event these men and women would live with for the rest of their lives. For 40 years survivors of the USS Liberty -- sworn under oath -- were forbidden to tell their stories. But today, the surviving crewmen talk candidly about the dreadful day their nearly lost their lives. They gathered at the Arlington National Cemetery for the somber memorial service.
I wonder in 40 years time how many more losses of life would have been from the hands of secret IS-RA-EL military activity?

That may have been Israel attacking the ship but it was under orders by the US. Someone had to die. The president pulled back intercept aircraft for the rescue. That just doesn't happen without a very dark reason.
