In June 1967, during the Six-Day War, the USS Liberty, a lightly armed American spy ship, was attacked by Israeli jets and torpedo boats in international waters off the Egyptian coast. The attack involved napalm, rockets, cannon fire, and torpedoes. The ship was flying the American flag and had clear markings. Of the crew of nearly 300, 34 were killed and 172 injured. Real-time audio recorded by the Israeli military allegedly proves they knew they were attacking an American ship. Despite the Liberty's attempts to signal for help, its messages were initially jammed. The Sixth Fleet picked up the distress signal, but claims suggest American jets were recalled under presidential orders. Allegedly, there was a plan to sink the ship and kill all the crew, but a Russian ship witnessed the events, causing the operation to be aborted. The speaker does not blame Israel, claiming they were taking orders from globalists.

In 1967, I was on the USS Liberty when it was attacked by Israeli forces, resulting in casualties. The attack involved Mirage Jets, napalm, and torpedoes. I believe it was not accidental, as we intercepted classified messages. I think Israel planned the attack, and our government may have known. On this Memorial Day, I remember the fallen crewmen and hope for accountability.

On June 8, 1967, Israel attacked the USS Liberty, an unarmed American naval intelligence ship, in international waters, killing 34 Americans and wounding 171. The USS Liberty was monitoring the war between Israel and Egypt. The crew recalls Israeli reconnaissance planes circling the vessel earlier that day, with pilots waving. Recordings confirm the Israelis positively identified the USS Liberty as American. Three hours later, unmarked Israeli fighters launched missiles at the ship without warning, followed by machine-gun fire. The Liberty's radio transmissions were jammed, violating international law. Declassified documents allegedly show the order came from Moshe Dayan. After the initial assault, the pilots requested to napalm the ship. Two Israeli war boats approached and launched torpedoes. When the Americans attempted to abandon ship, the Israeli Navy opened fire on the lifeboats. A surviving marine sent a mayday message to the USS America. The Israelis intercepted the message and called off the attack. President Johnson allegedly ordered the responding fighters to be recalled. The attack was covered up, labeled a friendly fire incident, and survivors were threatened into silence. It's claimed Israel intended to blame the attack on Egypt. The speaker suggests the attack demonstrated that Israel can act with impunity against the U.S.

The video discusses the 1967 attack on the USS Liberty by Israel, resulting in the deaths of 34 Americans. The attack was deliberate, with Israeli jets and boats targeting the ship despite its American markings. The Americans were jammed from calling for help, and the US government covered up the incident, labeling it as friendly fire. Survivors were threatened into silence, and the truth was suppressed for decades. The lack of repercussions for Israel's actions showed that America would tolerate almost anything from its ally.

The video discusses the 1967 attack on the USS Liberty by Israel, resulting in the deaths of 34 Americans. Despite clear identification, Israel deliberately targeted the ship, jammed its distress signals, and killed crew members trying to escape. The US government covered up the attack, with survivors threatened into silence. The incident highlighted Israel's belief that they could act without consequences from the US. The truth emerged years later, but justice was never served.

On June 8th, Israeli forces attacked the USS Liberty, an American ship, during the war. The ship was bombed, strafed, and torpedoed, resulting in 34 deaths and 172 injuries. The attack was unprovoked, despite the ship flying the American flag. Israeli commanders were aware they were targeting an American vessel. Newly released audio recordings provide evidence of the intentional assault. This incident sheds light on the true events of that day and its aftermath.

The speaker claims that the USS Liberty incident is not the end of the story. He states that American Marines in Iraq arrested Jews who were sniping and shooting at them. According to the speaker, these individuals were employees of Zapata Engineering. Despite being apprehended by Marines after allegedly shooting at them, they were released due to Zapata Engineering's intervention. The speaker alleges these individuals are Jews living in Israel, funded by American Jewry, and of American and European descent. A colonel claims that most snipers in Iraq were not Iraqi, but IDF (Israeli Defense Force). The speaker highlights the precision sniping, targeting vulnerabilities in armored soldiers, and attributes this to Israeli forces.

On June 8, 1967, Israel attacked an American Navy ship, resulting in the deaths of 34 sailors and marines and injuries to 174 others. The crew felt safe, believing Israel was a strong ally. However, during the attack, they were caught off guard as their defenses were taken out. The assault lasted about 25 minutes, and despite being clearly identified as an American ship, the attack was dismissed as an accident. There are claims that the U.S. government may have orchestrated this to provoke a war, with suggestions that leaders conspired to use the incident to justify military action. The situation was precarious, with the potential for escalating into World War III.

Flying the Star of David. "We thought they were coming there to help us. No. They were coming there to kill the rest of us and sink our ship." They fired five torpedoes at us, four missed by the grace of God. "One did hit, a little bit." Forward midships, 25 American sailors, marines, National Security Agency, CIA personnel were blown to bits in the blink of an eye. The torpedo lifted our ship out of the water, slammed it down, and stopped on the starboard side. We had "three life rafts left for a crew of 294 souls." They shot them all up; "When we put the life rafts over, they shot two out of the water and took one aboard their boat as a trophy of their kill. The Israelis did." They circled the ship, machine gunning anything that moved. They sent troop-carrying helicopters to finish this off, then left. "They couldn't sink us like they planned with the blessings of, our government, LBJ, from his government onto the Biden government, and all congresses in between have never lifted a finger to, to get an investigation." We've been hollering for fifty six years because they're afraid of fending their ally.

The speaker expresses suspicion about the events and suggests that the Israeli government was involved in a false flag operation. They believe that the government allowed soldiers to enter and kill people as a pretext for launching a genocide attack. The speaker also mentions fake stories about baby beheadings and compares the situation to the Pearl Harbor incident. They think the motive behind this operation was to gain control over the oil under Gaza. The speaker believes that people see the situation as opposition to Palestine due to propaganda. They question whether the hostages were real or part of a fake operation. The speaker emphasizes that the events were organized and controlled.

On June 8, 1967, Israel allegedly attacked the USS Liberty, an unarmed American naval ship in international waters. Israeli pilots identified the ship as American before the coordinated air and sea attack. Israeli pilots fired from above, and missile boats fired torpedoes from below. 34 American sailors were killed, and 174 were injured. One survivor claims the American government tried to cover up the event. The USS Liberty was allegedly a spy ship listening in on Israel's war plans, which Israel didn't like. According to the survivor, Mirage jets strafed the ship and dropped napalm, and Israeli torpedo boats fired five torpedoes, one of which hit. The torpedo hit in the communication spaces. The survivor believes the attack was intentional because the ship intercepted classified Israeli messages. He believes the Israeli government planned the attack, and the American government knows it.

They claim they were deliberately sent there and that all the ships were going one way, with them being the only ones going that way. They assert Ashkel, LBJ, and their cronies formed a tight group and said, “let's sink” and “let's get this going.” They further claim the attack was probably planned a year in advance to sink that ship and blame it on the Arab states.

A survivor from the USS Liberty recounts the 1967 attack by Israel in waters off the Sinai Peninsula. Thirty four of my crewmen were killed and a hundred and seventy one wounded. He says Mirage jets strafed the ship, napalm was dropped, and four Israeli torpedo boats circling the vessel fired five torpedoes total, with one hit. The ship sustained a hole in the side, about 50 feet by 30 feet. He notes that all men in the gun mounts were killed and a torpedo hit the communications spaces, leaving many wounded, supposedly by an accident. He says he intercepted messages that Israel had sent, some highly classified at the time, and that these were forwarded to the government. He asserts, "And I know the Israelis, this is my opinion, planned the attack on us, and they know it too. And I believe our government knows it too."

The Rainyman tried to call for help, but all US frequencies were jammed by Israel. The 6th Fleet was ordered not to aid the ship under White House orders. Fighter bombers dropped napalm, torpedo boats attacked, and a torpedo hit the ship. Despite being damaged, the crew managed to keep the ship afloat. The attack was covered up to secure the Jewish vote. Survivors were threatened not to speak about the attack. The order to attack came from Defense Minister Dayan, but was later halted by an IDF admiral when the ship refused to sink. Israel's war plans included seizing Syrian territory.

Speaker asserts the USS Liberty was clearly targeted on purpose by a country we're supporting, Israel, and questions why it's shameful to say that. They reference a "twelve day war" with Iran, framing it as the US and Israel versus Iran, with bombing on all sides. They claim IDF officers in the Pentagon—among other foreign officers—barge into meetings, give orders, and demand action during that week, and that "nobody did anything about it." The speaker warns that permitting this "deeply unhealthy behavior" invites "predators in a foreign country" to take advantage of us, noting "it's not anti Israel at all." They demand leaders at the Pentagon and across the US government "stand up and defend us against all potential threats" and not prostrate themselves before a foreign nation, asking why have a government if it's taking orders from another weaker government, "And they're not even pretending."

In this exchange, Speaker 0 raises the issue of the USS Liberty attack in 1967, arguing that if truth matters, the Israeli government must be held accountable because the American flag was flying on that ship. Speaker 0 presses why, in a discussion of modern Israeli–American relations, Speaker 1 would deem the attack “irrelevant” to current ties. Speaker 1 responds that when assessing today’s relations, citing the 1967 attack as a basis for judgment is irrelevant—comparable to using evidence from World War II or 1776 to define present-day relations with Britain or Germany. He emphasizes that while the attack was horrible and tragic for those involved, and that Israel paid reparations, the actual naval record indicates the incident was a mistaken and tragic event. He notes that those who reference the USS Liberty often do so to suggest Israel deliberately harmed America, and asks if that is Speaker 0’s broader point. Speaker 0 reiterates that truth requires accountability from the Israeli government, given the American flag on the ship. Speaker 1 points to the naval investigations, stating that multiple investigations exist and that the Israeli military at the time was flying Mirage planes and the USS Liberty was operating off-grid. He explains that the Israeli forces mistook the ship for an Egyptian vessel and believed it was shelling Al-Arish, which was not true. He describes the sequence: the American flag was knocked down in the initial attack, the engagement lasted about ninety minutes, and once it became clear the vessel was American, the attack was halted and a ship was dispatched to assist the Liberty. He also notes there have been other unfortunate friendly-fire incidents in war, such as during the Gulf War when US forces killed British troops. Speaker 0 asks about the broader agenda behind raising the incident, suggesting that it is not limited to that specific event. Speaker 1 acknowledges the question but questions the motive and implies that it is not an appropriate basis for evaluating current U.S.–Israel relations. Speaker 0 asserts that there are ongoing problems in the relationship, but again emphasizes the six-decade-old incident as relevant to the discussion. Speaker 1 maintains that, in the same way that many histories exist, there are many countries and contexts, and reiterates that the question is not answered satisfactorily. The exchange ends with Speaker 1 indicating this will be the last question.

In 1967, the USS Liberty was attacked by Israeli forces in international waters. Despite clear American markings, the ship was targeted by unmarked jets and torpedo boats bearing the Star of David, resulting in numerous casualties. SOS messages were sent, but recalled by Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and President Lyndon B. Johnson, allegedly to avoid embarrassing Israel. Survivors claim the attack was premeditated, designed to sink the ship and blame it on Arab states. After the attack, survivors were ordered to remain silent under threat of imprisonment or death. They were smeared as anti-Semitic for speaking out about the incident. The speaker, a USS Liberty veteran, calls on President Trump to investigate the attack and accuses Congress of being beholden to the Zionist state. He also challenges Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro to debate the issue. He believes the attack was an act of war and a war crime, and that the US is an occupied nation, prioritizing Israel over American interests. He urges support for usslibertyveterans.org.

The video discusses the attack on the USS Liberty, an American naval ship, by Israel in 1967. The ship was monitoring the war between Israel and Egypt when it was deliberately attacked by Israeli jets and torpedo boats. The crew tried to radio for help, but their transmissions were jammed. The attack resulted in the deaths of 34 American citizens and wounded 171 others. The American government covered up the incident, and the media referred to it as a friendly fire incident. The video raises questions about why Israel would attack an American ship and suggests that the attack may have been intended to be blamed on Egypt.

The transcript discusses Operation Northwoods, a proposed scheme in the early 1960s by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, led by L. O. Lemonser, to conduct false flag operations as a pretext for invading Cuba and waging war with the Soviet Union. The plan included hijacking jets by remote control, crashing them, and blaming Cuba, along with numerous other terrorist attacks to be carried out under the document. One scenario proposed the destruction of a US naval vessel to be blamed on a foreign power as a pretext for war with an agreed enemy. The narrative then shifts to 1967, when President Lyndon Baines Johnson allegedly operationalized Northwoods during the Six Day War. During that conflict, the USS Liberty, a clearly marked US intelligence ship, was sent by Johnson to collect electronic intelligence in the Eastern Mediterranean, approximately 14 miles off the coast of Israel in international waters. Speaker 1 describes the attack on the USS Liberty: three torpedo boats approached from the starboard quarter at high speed in an apparent torpedo launch attitude. Israeli surveillance aircraft flew low over the ship, clearly identifying it as American. At 2 PM that afternoon, the USS Liberty was attacked by three Mirage III fighter-bombers. The Mirages jammed US signals, and were unmarked, the only unmarked aircraft in Israel's arsenal. The fighter-bombers strafed the ship with their cannons, dropped conventional munitions and napalm from bow to stern. After the Mirages, the ship was hit by a medium bomber, Desalit? miseries, carrying napalm and other munitions such as white phosphorus. The USS Liberty was then attacked by three Israeli torpedo boats bearing Israeli flags. The torpedo gunboats opened fire with high-caliber machine guns and launched torpedoes. A single torpedo struck the ship, creating a 30-foot exit hole on both sides. The torpedo boats then strafed life rafts in the water in international waters. Throughout the engagement, the USS Liberty repeatedly called the Sixth Fleet nearby for air support or rescue. Two aircraft carriers and the Mediterranean fleet responded, but they were recalled by the White House. Rear Admiral Geist, commanding the carriers in the Sixth Fleet, called Washington to confirm the recall. Secretary of Defense McNamara came on the line, and then President Johnson allegedly told Geist, “I want that goddamn ship going to the bottom. No help. Recall the wings.” The report asserts that American forces were told to stand down despite the attack. A Russian spy ship reportedly witnessed part of the attack. After three hours, the Israelis withdrew, allowing the damaged USS Liberty to limp to safety. The narrator cites interviews with former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Thomas Moore, other admirals, and the head JAG officer of the Navy who allegedly was ordered to falsify reports and cover up what happened. An Israeli pilot is said to have publicly stated that he refused three times, over radio, to attack the ship, noting it was an American ship in international waters, but he was ordered to engage under threat of court-martial. The summary concludes with the claim that Johnson had personal control over the operation, positioning the ship in the Mediterranean and making a backroom deal with Israel to attack it and blame Egypt, aiming to draw the US into war and take over the Middle East. The captain and crew were allegedly told they would face life in prison or death if they disclosed what happened. Captain William L. McGonagall is said to have received the Congressional Medal of Honor in secret and was instructed not to reveal it.

During the 1967 Six-Day War, the USS Liberty, a CIA intelligence gathering ship, was attacked by Israeli Air and Naval forces. The ship, flying the US flag and in international waters, was mistaken for an Egyptian ship. The attack resulted in the death of 34 Americans and the wounding of 172 crew members. The US government and Israeli officials claimed it was a case of mistaken identity, but evidence suggests otherwise. The attack was likely deliberate to maintain the secrecy of Israeli operations during the war. The subsequent cover-up involved altering reports, silencing survivors, and withholding evidence. Despite calls for a congressional investigation, it is unlikely to happen.

In the exchange, the interviewer raises the question of why Ben labeled the 1967 USS Liberty attack as irrelevant to current Israeli-American relations, given that dozens of American servicemen were killed or wounded. Ben responds that focusing on a mistaken attack from 1967, and using it to define today’s Israel-U.S. relations, is irrelevant in the context of modern relations—comparing it to citing World War II or 1776 to define present ties with Britain or Germany. He acknowledges the attack was horrible and tragic for those involved, notes that the Israeli government paid reparations, and asserts that the actual naval record shows it was a mistaken attack. The interviewer presses for accountability, noting that the American flag was flying on the USS Liberty, which would seem to preclude misidentification. Ben reiterates the broader context: people who cite the Liberty often are not discussing the specifics of the incident, but are using it to suggest that Israel deliberately attacked an American ship to harm the United States. He questions whether that is the interviewer’s point and emphasizes a broader agenda. The interviewer insists on accountability and asks why the incident should be irrelevant to today’s relations. Ben maintains that the issue is not central to assessing current U.S.-Israel relations, arguing that the attack should be considered within its own time, and that today’s relations are shaped by a wide range of factors. He notes that there were multiple naval investigations, and that the Navy records show the Liberty was off its usual path, and that at the time, Israeli forces mistook it for an Egyptian ship while Mirage aircraft were deployed by the Israeli military. In the initial attack, the American flag was knocked down, and the assault continued for about ninety minutes; once the pilots realized it was an American ship, they reportedly called off the attack and sent a ship to assist the USS Liberty. The interviewer acknowledges that there have been various incidents and persistent concerns, but maintains that the question concerns American interests. Ben maintains his position that the broader agenda is central to the line of questioning, and questions the relevance of a six-decade-old attack as the number one issue in assessing current U.S.-Israel relations. The interviewer suggests that the audience includes people alive at the time, implying lasting relevance, while Ben calls for focusing on current relations rather than an old incident, noting the existence of a wide variety of historical contexts in 1967. The conversation ends with Ben indicating he will move to another point, signaling the interviewer is not addressing his core question.

A humanitarian aid ship, the conscience ship, was attacked twice by drones in international waters near Malta while attempting to deliver aid to Gaza, which is under siege. The attack caused a fire and a hole in the ship, preventing it from continuing its mission. Eighteen people were on board. Malta has allegedly not allowed the ship to dock safely. The speaker and others were scheduled to board the ship shortly after the attack. The speaker claims this is an example of international law and human rights being disregarded and calls it an act of terrorism. While it's unconfirmed, the speaker suspects Israel was responsible, citing Israeli warplanes circling Malta at the time and previous attacks on similar missions by Israel. The speaker states that 2,000,000 people in Gaza are being deliberately starved by Israel and that this mission was an attempt to break the siege.

The speaker expresses concerns about American aircraft carriers, referencing the USS Liberty and the Israeli government. They mention “allegedly, the Israeli Air Force jet fighter aircraft… they did end up paying out the American government.” The speaker worries about a false flag operation: “a missile comes out of Gaza… hits one of our aircraft carriers, but it was actually Israeli missile.” They say, “we should get out of there.” In response, they remark, “It doesn’t matter where the missile comes from,” and then react, “that’s weird, Holy shit.”

The speaker states that the attack on Liberty was not a pure case of mistaken identity and was not pure error. They argue that it’s time for the state of Israel and the United States government to provide the crew members of the Liberty and the American people with the facts of what happened and why it came about that the Liberty was their child thirty years ago to ready.

I served on the USS Liberty in 1967 when it was attacked by Israeli forces. 34 crewmen died, 171 were wounded. I believe the attack was planned, not accidental. The Israelis strafed us with jets and torpedo boats. Our ship had 50 caliber machine guns, but many men were killed. The torpedo hit the communication spaces. I think Israel and our government knew about the attack. I remember the fallen crewmen every Memorial Day.
