..have you all forgotten?
If you have or haven't heard of the incident,here's how it went down in early June 1967 just before the six day war.
An unarmed US Navy intel ship,the Liberty was in international waters in the Red Sea,quietly sweeping the ether analysing radio traffic. On June 8 after 9 hours of Israeli air and naval surveillance they attacked it without warning killing 34 wounding over a 100 ,even strafing life boats!
Their screams for help were heeded by a Med based carrier which sent planes-which were recalled!
"The most disgusting part of the tale relates to how U.S. warplanes sent to the Liberty’s aid from an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean were called back by Defense Secretary Robert McNamara acting under orders from President Lyndon Baines Johnson, who declared that he would rather see the ship go to the bottom of the sea than embarrass his good friend Israel. Ironically, the first ship to reach the Liberty and offer assistance was from the Soviet Union, an offer that was declined."

Some say,the Mexican Marano identity of LBJ,ex Texas congressman had much to do with that. Personally,I can't say.

Israel apologized for the attack, saying that the USS Liberty had been attacked in error after being mistaken for an Egyptian ship.[6] Both the Israeli and U.S. governments conducted inquiries and issued reports that concluded the attack was a mistake due to Israeli confusion about the ship's identity,[2] though others, including survivors of the attack, have rejected these conclusions and maintain that the attack was deliberate.[7]

In May 1968, the Israeli government paid US$3.32 million (equivalent to US$22.9 million in 2016) to the U.S. government in compensation to the families of the 34 men killed in the attack. In March 1969, Israel paid a further $3.57 million ($23.3 million in 2016) to the men who had been wounded. In December 1980, it agreed to pay $6 million ($17.4 million in 2016) as the final settlement for material damage to Liberty itself plus 13 years' interest.[8]

I marked the official explanation, which u could've find easily on the website, But I guess the point of this thread is to create propaganda against the state of Israel

Usa is a well known israeli lapdog there is nothing new in it .
And Pakistan is U.S lapdog

The Zionist wanted to sink USS liberty and blame it on Egypt so they could attack egypt backed by angry americans but zionism failed to sink the USS liberty so they all had to go hush hush on it.

No,Shlomo,I had no idea! I honestly thought it was accidentally attacked in BROAD DAYLIGHT FOR OVER 2 HOURS by ships and planes cause in those days FSBs had neither data pods nor data links.

What have we here?
" Admiral Tom Moorer stated that the Liberty was the most identifiable ship in the U.S. Navy and in an interview with the Washington Post stated: "To suggest that they [the IDF] couldn't identify the ship is ... ridiculous. Anybody who could not identify the Libertycould not tell the difference between the White House and the Washington Monument"
Also your boys say
"According to the Anti Defamation League "the argument that Israel knowingly attacked an American ship has always lacked a convincing motive"
All from The same link,btw! An ex US Navy Intel guy,Wayne Madsen said the Joint Chiefs unilaterally agreed on payback. The following year an Israeli sub sank in the Med. He says without LBJ's approval an US Navy plane launched a torpedo.
