USS Liberty Remembrance of 50 years USA Government Cover-Up of Israel’s 8 June 1967 Attack on USA Spy-Ship

A USS Liberty Remembrance of 50 years USA Government Cover-Up of Israel’s 8 June 1967 Attack on USA Spy-Ship

Is LIVE at Kindle because there’s a FREE APP for that!

The crew of the USS Liberty is the most decorated crew since World War II and among the most decorated for a single engagement in the entire history of the United States Navy. Virtually unarmed, America’s premier Spy-Ship was attacked while in international waters by Israeli planes and torpedo boats on 8 June 1967. 34 US Sailors and Marines were killed and 174 wounded.

The attack on the USS Liberty remains the only incident of damage to a major US ship since the sinking of the USS MAINE in Havana Harbour in 1898, prior to the Spanish-American War, that has not been investigated by the US Congress.

Author, activist and Senior Non-Arab Correspondent for TheArabDailyNews.com Eileen Fleming condenses nine years of research and interviews with USS LIBERTY Veterans in the first book of a series seeking:

A new Court of Inquiry to be convened by the Department of the Navy, operating with Congressional oversight and public testimony from surviving crew members; to thoroughly investigate the attack on the USS Liberty, with full cooperation from the National Security Agency, the Central Intelligence Agency and the military intelligence services, so as to determine Israel’s motive in launching the attack on the USS Liberty so as to end the USA Government Cover-Up and its dishonoring of the Liberty Veterans.

This book calls to every appropriate committee of the Congress of the United States to investigate the actions of the White House and Defense Department who prevented the rescue of the USS Liberty and threatened the survivors if they told their eye witness experiences to the American people.

The ultimate intention of this book is to establish the eighth day of June to be known as “USS LIBERTY REMEMBRANCE DAY, in order to commemorate the Liberty’s heroic crew and to educate the American people of the danger to our national security inherent in any passionate attachment of our elected officials for any foreign nation.” – Admiral Thomas H. Moorer, United States Navy, (Ret.), Former Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff; General Raymond G. Davis, United States Marine Corps, (MOH), Former Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps; Rear Admiral Merlin Staring, United States Navy, (Ret.), Former Judge Advocate General of the Navy; and Ambassador James Akins, (Ret.), Former United States Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Independent Commission of Inquiry October 2003

Part 2 will be published HERE after the 50th USS LIBERTY Reunion in Norfolk, Virginia on 8 June 2017

    Just another coverup. Al-jazeera had a great documentary entitled “The Day Israel Attacked America,” with commentary from survivors. I wonder why al-jazeera was booted off the American media.
