On a bright, sunny day, June 8, 1967, the USS Liberty, a U.S. Navy
Intelligence ship was sailing off the coast of the Sinai Peninsula.
The Israeli/Arab 6 Day War had begun three days earlier. Without
warning, our ally's IDF (Israeli Defense Force) aircraft and
torpedo boats deliberately attacked, killing 34 United States
Americans (31 sailors, 2 marines, and 1 NSA civilian) and wounding
174 - two thirds of the crew were either killed or wounded.
Carrying the scars of this attack would be bad enough, but learning
of a United States and Israeli government cover-up of the facts of
the attack has added insult to injury for the brave men who
survived this attack. Add in bigotry and prejudice toward the USS
Liberty survivors because of their quest to reveal the truth of the
events of that fateful day, you cannot read this book without
feeling a deep-seated rage at what governments will do to protect
their interests - even to the point of wronging the very protectors
of their nation.
