OUR 'FRIENDS,' THE ISRAELIS In 1967, they sunk the U.S.S. Liberty - and LBJ engineered a cover-up by Justin Raimondo

Retired Captain Ward Boston, a former U.S. Navy attorney who was senior legal counsel to the military investigation of the sinking of the U.S.S. Liberty by the Israelis, in 1967, has finally revealed the truth in a signed affidavit:

"For more than 30 years, I have remained silent on the topic of the USS Liberty. I am a military man and when orders come in from the Secretary of Defense and President of the United States, I follow them".

"The evidence was clear. Both [the late] Admiral [Isaac C.] Kidd, [Jr.] and I believed with certainty that this attack, which killed 34 American sailors and injured 172 others, was a deliberate effort to sink an American ship and murder its entire crew. I am certain that the Israeli pilots that undertook the attack, as well as their superiors who had ordered the attack, were aware that the ship was American".

"I am outraged at the efforts of the apologists for Israel in this country to claim that this attack was a case of 'mistaken identity.' "I know from personal conversations I had with Admiral Kidd that President Lyndon Johnson and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara ordered him to conclude that the attack was a case of 'mistaken identity' despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary."

At a news conference, put on in the Rayburn House Office Building with the help of Rep. John Conyers (D-Michigan), retired Admiral Thomas Moorer, a chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, thundered from his wheelchair:

"Why in the world would our government put Israel's interest ahead of our own?"

A good question, one that baffles patriots - and is especially relevant today.

Good post. The story of what happened to the Liberty and her crew needs to be told again and again and again until every man, woman, child, and animal in the USA is an expert on it. That knowledge can then be related to the current Iraq war, which is also an example of the US government putting Israeli interests far ahead of American interests.

Funny you mention that…Just this morning while I was eating breakfast I saw a ridiculous infomercial that was literally begging for money to help those poor, persecuted, starving joos in Russia. They actually had some Christian say "we owe this to the joos for all the atrocities our forefathers have committed against them." And they then went on to show joos being led on the trains.

This is really quite astonishing. A credible, highly placed source alleges that the President of the United States ordered a cover up of the murder of 34 Americans and it's virtually ignored in the "mainstream" media. What scum they are.
