A story worth remembering:

Not necessarily related, but equally sickening:

It is good to see the facts about the USS Liberty being brought to public attention. Probably 90% of people who consider themselves well informed have never heard about the deliberate attack by Israeli air and naval forces on an American ship.
ReplyDeleteThe first I learned about the attempt to destroy the ship was an article written way back in the 1970's in a Catholic magazine called 'The Word', published by the Divine Word Missionaries.
Other articles in the same magazine dealt with the financing of the "Russian" revolution, US State Department promotion of Fidel Castro, etc...
As a young student reading this stuff I didn't quite know what to make of it! It was the opposite of what all the talking heads in college and on tv were saying. Of course we are now beginning to perceive and assemble the truth.
For those who have access to a large research library, a few hours spent locating and reading issues of 'The Word' from 1960 to 1972 should be rewarding.
