What I find most distressing about the whole incident is the duplicity of the US government -- particularly the US Navy -- in the cover-up.
Testimony regarding the deliberate machine gunning of USS Liberty's life rafts in the water has been removed from the US Navy Court of Inquiry Report prior to its being released to the public.
And the legal advisor to the US Navy Court of Inquiry signed a deposition stating that the findings of the Court were predetermined.
What all need to remember is -- this can happen again. This can happen to you. This can happen to your kids.
