EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Survivor of Israeli Attack Reveals
Secrets of 1967 High Seas Massacre “The USS
Liberty was set up by the U.S. government to be
sunk by the Israeli military so that they could blame it
on Egypt. After this attack, two American aircrafts were
launched carrying nuclear-tipped missiles in order to
bomb Cairo. That city was within three minutes of being
obliterated. Without a doubt, it would have started
WWIII.”.....“If the truth ever came out,” Tourney began,
“it would change history and how people felt about the
Israeli state. If the mainstream media devoted an entire
week of stories to the USS Liberty and exactly
what happened, the American people would be up in arms,
begging for blood. Even though I’ve been accused of
being an anti-Semite for trying to tell the truth,
everyone should remember one important point—USS
Liberty crewmembers didn’t murder anyone. The state
of Israel did. The truth will change history.”
When asked to elaborate, Tourney said: “Things would
change drastically in regard to Zionism. There would no
longer be any money, aid or weaponry being sent to
Israel. If people were interested enough to study this
subject, they’d find out further that Adm. [Thomas]
Moorer and Capt. Ward Boston wrote scathing articles to
the Navy Board of Inquiry saying its report [on the
Liberty] was a complete lie and sham.”
Tourney added that “Israel ruined
many lives that day—not only survivors, but families
that lost loved ones, too. Many of the wounded have long
since died, taken their own lives, been thrown in prison
or are messed up in the head.”....“It’s like parents
hiring a hit man to kill you,” he added. “Then they go
to the prison and spring your killer. That’s exactly
what the U.S. government did to us. When they put a gun
to our heads, they put a gun to everyone’s head.”
....“Defense Secretary Robert
McNamara contacted the
Saratoga and recalled the fighters, telling them not to
aid our ship,” he said. “But, showing true courage,
Tully re-launched the jets, without authorization . . .
After the second set of fighter jets were dispatched,
the president of the United States—Lyndon
Johnson—personally recalled them,” said Tourney.
Tourney says Johnson told Tully: “I don’t give a
[expletive] if that ship goes to the bottom and every
sailor is lost. We will not embarrass our ally,
Israel.”.......“The only message we’d sent from the
makeshift wire that had been strung was: ‘Attacked by
unmarked aircraft’,” he added. “We never initially
identified the attackers. So how did LBJ know Israel was
behind the assault?”
......“McCainand his admiral
father covered up the USS Liberty attack on
orders that came down from the highest corridors of the
U.S. government,” Morris said. Liberty survivor Tourney
agrees. “McCain has been part of the cover-up and knew
exactly what happened to us,” Tourney said. “This fact
has been documented since at least 1981. But his
reaction leaves a lot to be desired. He claims: ‘It was
a tragic mistake. Forget it. Get over it. Israel paid
reparations.’ . . . McCain won’t tell people that most
of the crewmen only received $200 or $250 in
compensation.”

Aug] Hotel Boycott of Israel Demanded: Veterans
Demand Redress, Apology from Delegation
On June 8, 1967, land and sea military forces of
the State of Israel attacked a clearly identified and
flagged American ship, the USS Liberty, in international
waters, killing and wounding nearly 200 of 296 on
board. The ship was virtually unarmed, flown over for
hours by Israeli patrol planes and, at every moment,
flew an American flag. Lifeboats were strafed (one is
kept in Israel even today as a “war souvenir”) and
medical corpsman and fire crews were strafed, rocketed
and napalmed. The ship was attacked for hours, their
communications jammed.

New
revelations in attack on American spy ship
On June 8, 1967, the USS Liberty, a U.S. Navy
intelligence ship was attacked by Israeli fighter planes
and torbedo boats as it floated in intenational waters
12 miles off the coast of the Sinai Peninsula. 34 US
sailors were killed in the attack and 172 were injured.
The attack proceeded in broad daylight on clear sunny
day as the Liberty displayed the American flag. The
attack went on for two hours, according to Admiral
Thomas Moorer, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff.
On that June day in 1967, the weather was
beautiful... Clear and sunny, visibility unlimited...
the LIBERTY, an elaborate state-of-the art intelligence
gathering platform, was in international waters off the
Gaza strip and was flying the Stars and Stripes. Israeli
reconnaissance planes flew overhead for hours. Pilots
and ship's crew waved to each other. Then, inexplicably,
unmarked Israeli aircraft began attacking the ship.
The defenseless LIBERTY radioed for help. Two
aircraft carriers in the Med responded by launching
fighter aircraft. Unbelievably, they were recalled by
the White House. RADM Geis, then commanding the carriers
in the Sixth Fleet, called Washington personally to
confirm the order. SecDef McNamara came on the line,
then President Johnson. Johnson indicated to Geis that
the aircraft were to be returned, that he would not have
his allies embarrassed, and that he didn't care who was
killed or what was done to the ship. Geis, like any good
sailor, recalled the aircraft.
The official explanation for the attack is that it
was a case of mistaken identity. That explanation is
undermined by the following facts:
- The ship was clearly identified with an American
flag.
- The three Israeli Mirage figher-bombers that
attacked the ship were unmarked.
- The Mirage jets jamed the communication
frequencies used by the ship.
- The jets strafed the ship at close range, where
the details of the ship would have been cleary
visible to the pilots.
- The attack included multiple waves of air
assaults.
- The torpedo boats strafed survivors in life
boats, an international war crime.
- The two aircraft sent by the US 6th fleet to
defend the Liberty were recalled.
- The recall order was confirmed by the White
House.
While one theory holds that the attack was
perpetrated by Israel acting alone, another theory puts
responsibility on the Johnson administration.
Israeli Pilot Claims Attack Was Intentional
Fifteen years after the attack an Israeli Pilot who
was ordered to participate in the attack came forward,
approaching Liberty survivors and former Congressman
Paul N. McCloskey. The pilot relates that he identified
the ship as American and informed his superiors, but was
told to proceed with the attack. When he refused to do
so, he was arrested on returning to base.
