USS Liberty was a largely unarmed reconnaissance ship attacked by Israel with the intent of sinking the ship and murdering all of the crew. Israel's military was unusually incompetent that day, with many torpedoes missing the ship or failing to explode. President Lyndon Johnson, who also authorized and then covered up the assassination of John F. Kennedy, cancelled the protective cover 40 minutes away and covered up the Israeli attack on a US ship. Next year is the 50th anniversary of this crime against humanity. Stop paying $30,000 a year in taxpayer funds for EACH Israeli man, woman, and child.
