153. But have you looked honestly and fairly at the facts?
I have. I have actually met some survivors and they just want to understand why. They feel betrayed by the US government. Yes, they are upset with those in Israel's government that ordered the attack, but they are very angry with the US government. There was never a Congressional Investigation into the attack. Most of the documents are still classified and there certainly are enough facts to justify an investigation and declassification of those documents. If you honestly believe that the Israeli and American government has nothing to hide from the citizens of both countries, then you should support the investiagtion being done and the declassification of those documents within both governments. Let's get ALL the information available and find out exactly what happened and why. See, the survivors of the USS Liberty has been trying for decades to get that investigation. Every politician who has supported the investigation has been unfairly labelled anit-semetic and their character has been assassinated by this tendency to claim that any criticism of the Israeli government is in some way anti-jew. We criticize Bush and find it both offensive and unfair when we are called anti-American for it. There is no difference. You could do your part to help clear the Israeli government if you truly believe it was an accident. Would you support an investigation?
