>One of the most explosive and hidden secrets in U.S. history; one that has never been previously told, Remember the Liberty explores how a sitting U.S. president collaborated with Israeli leaders in the fomentation of a war between them and their Arab neighbors. A war that would ensure a victory for Israel, and include the acquisition of additional land. This book will finally identify the real cause of the vicious attack on a U.S. Naval ship. After the botched plan was executed, the ship refused to sink even after being hit by a torpedo, leading the attack to be cancelled and a massive cover-up invoked. Including severe threats for the crewmembers to "keep their lips sealed." That cover-up is barely still in place, and completely exposed. Written largely by the survivors themselves, the truth is finally being told with the real story revealed.

>On the Brink of Armageddon highlights the key details of the revisionist theory that British documentarian Peter Hounam proposed in his 2003 book Operation Cyanide: Why the Bombing of the USS Liberty Nearly Caused World War III. From Hounam’s breakthrough work and the work of previous and subsequent authors it can be deduced that President Johnson masterminded both the Six-Day War of 1967 and the Israeli attack on the Liberty, which he planned as a false flag attack, not unlike his Gulf of Tonkin hoax. Evidently Johnson intended the sinking of the Liberty to serve as a pretext for the U.S. to publicly join Israel’s war.

>The work of Stephen Green in the 1980s, principally his book, Living By the Sword: America and Israel in the Middle East, revealed that the U.S. was deeply operationally involved in the Six-Day War and must have been colluding with Israel for many months.

>“On the Brink” details some of the evidence supporting Hounam’s inconceivable theory that LBJ planned to provoke WWIII, by bombing a Soviet air base near Cairo with a relatively small, nuclear-tipped weapon. Cairo – and the rest of the world – were apparently spared the intended bombing attack by the miraculous good fortune of the Liberty’s narrow escape from its intended fate.

>Presents evidence of collaboration between the United States and Israel in an attack on a US naval surveillance vessel during the Six-Day War pointing to collusion between the US government and the Israeli Mossad.

>On June 8, 1967, the USS Liberty, an unarmed intelligence ship reporting to the Joint Chiefs of Staff under the auspices of the National Security Agency, was positioned in international waters off the coast of Egypt when it was attacked with deadly violence by unmarked jet planes firing rockets and machine guns and throwing napalm onto its deck. This ambush was followed by a torpedo strike that blew a forty-foot hole in the starboard side of the ship. Lacking the capacity to defend themselves, thirty-four sailors were killed and 174 wounded, many for life. By the end of the day, Israel had confessed to having been the aggressor, simultaneously arguing that the attack had been an "accident" and a "mistake."

>The facts said otherwise. So intense and sustained was the attack - it lasted for nearly an hour and a half - so specific was the aiming for the antennae and satellite dish on deck, that it was scarcely credible that Israel's aggression was not deliberate; such was the view of Marshall Carter, the director of the National Security Agency, his deputy director Louis Tordella, and Richard Helms, the Director of Central Intelligence.

>Based on interviews with more than forty survivors, knowledgeable political insiders, and Soviet archives of the period, investigative writer Joan Mellen presents evidence suggesting complicity between US and Israeli intelligence in the attack on Liberty and the more than fifty-year long cover-up. What were the underlying motives? Was this a false flag operation conducted in the midst of the Six-Day War? Was it conceivable that Israel would have initiated such an operation without a green light from the United States?

>For the sake of justice, truth and the murdered and surviving sailors, this is a story demanding to be told.

>In June, 1967, jet aircraft and motor torpedo boats of Israel brutally assaulted an American naval vessel, the USS Liberty, in international waters off the Sinai Peninsula in the Mediterranean Sea. Thirty-four men died and 172 were wounded. The author was an officer on the bridge when the attack started and subsequently spent many years researching and documenting this meticulous account of the attack and the cover-up that followed.

>•Notorious incident: In 1967 the spy ship USS Liberty was attacked by Israeli fighter jets and torpedo boats in international waters during the Six-Day War. Thirty-four sailors were killed and more than 170 wounded, many critically. Israel claimed mistaken identity, which a U.S. naval court of inquiry confirmed, but that explanation is contradicted by the facts of the case.

>• Based on new revelations: James Scott has interviewed Liberty survivors, senior U.S. political and intelligence officials, and examined newly declassified documents in Israel and the United States to write this comprehensive, dramatic account. He reveals that officers in Israel’s chain of command were aware of the Liberty’ s identity and shows how events in Vietnam prompted the American government to deemphasize the attack despite widespread disbelief of Israel’s story.

>• The son of an attack survivor: Scott’s father, John, was an officer and engineer aboard the Liberty who was awarded the Silver Star for helping to save the ship from sinking.

>Eyewitness Accounts of the Attack on the USS Liberty

>Edited by Victor Thorn and Mark Glenn

>When one considers that thousands of books, articles, essays, documentaries and blockbuster films have been made concerning pivotal events in history such as Pearl Harbor and the assassination of JFK; at the same time we need to ask: why has no such attention toward the attack on the USS Liberty (June 8, 1967) taken place? After all, had the ship been sunk as planned, it would have kicked off a nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union.

>The reason for this silence over the Liberty attack is simple. It didn’t go off as planned, meaning the ship was not sunk. More importantly, the entity responsible for this attack was the most sacred of all sacred cows—Israel. Moreover, any rational person who spent even five minutes considering the facts of this event would walk away concluding that it was a deliberate act of war against the U.S.

>In this book, readers will come into contact with many of these facts—disturbing items that have been kept deliberately—some might even say fanatically—hidden, for nearly half a century. They paint the ultimate picture of set-up, betrayal, and cover-up—both by Israel and elements within the U.S. government.

>You’ll hear DIRECTLY from the survivors as well as high-ranking U.S. Navy and government officials who were witness to the subsequent cover up. These men agreed to be interviewed—at great physical and professional risk to themselves—so that the world would know what they saw that fateful day. Now you can, too.

>The simple fact is that they admitted it. They had to after being caught red handed. The evidence did not sink to the bottom of the Mediterranean and there were witnesses.

>The Israeli government admitted to the June 8, 1967 attack by Israeli Defense Forces on the American "spy" ship USS Liberty. The Liberty was a SIGINT or signals intelligence gathering ship. In that attack, on an American ship in the Eastern Mediterranean, 34 military personnel including a civilian crew-member were killed, and 175 were wounded, with enough damage to the ship to end her useful service life. Among the 34 dead, 33 were naval personnel and one was a civilian employee of the National Security Agency, the NSA. The ship had a crew compliment of 290 officers and men including three civilian linguists.

>A sterile diplomatic apology was made by the Government of Israel (GOI), without admitting culpability, and eventually, after some haggling compensation was paid to the families of the dead, and to the wounded for their injuries. Years later, during the presidency of Jimmie Carter, after more political pressure and haggling, the United States government received payment for the damage to the ship from the government of Israel. In view of the vast amounts of foreign aid provided to the State of Israel, one can speculate as to whom actually made these damage payments–was it the Unites States taxpayers?

>In the aftermath of the attack by planes of the Israeli Air Force and motor torpedo boats of the Israeli Navy, some 40 plus years later, survivors continue to suffer a life time of trauma and the sense of abandonment by their government with no forum or remedies "apparently" available to redress the injustices suffered. For them justice is not measured in dollars. There is a lingering sense of betrayal by their then President and Commander-in-Chief, and the Congress of the United States. Subsequent presidents and congresses have perpetrated this injustice claiming no new evidence exists to warrant opening the matter for further investigation. It is no surprise that many of the crew suffer from post-traumatic stress syndrome; however, it is disconcerting to have the claim of PTSS used against them to undermine the survivors' credibility as witnesses. After the passage of years as new information slowly emerges, the witnesses and victims to the event are now passing away due to age. Memories are fading and documents have become lost or destroyed–evidence of possible crimes committed at the governmental level.

>Despite efforts by both the United States government and government of Israel to sweep the incident under the rug with the continuing cloak of official secrecy, the matter still lingers today, more actively than ever, after more than forty years. An open festering wound continues to exist in many quarters adversely affecting relationships between both countries, to some extent mitigated with the passage of time and the need to deal with real world crises in the Middle East region. A simple question is do we spy on each other? Former U.S. government officials will claim that because of our special relationship with Israel that our national security has been undermined for political reasons at the presidential level.

>The attack on the USS Liberty raises many questions, some answered, but more remain part of a continuing mystery. To understand the Liberty story is to understand our Middle East foreign policy, and our strange relationship with the State of Israel. Nevertheless, the interests of the United States and Israel do not always merge. Events of that Six-Day War still cloud efforts to bring peace to the area, and we came close to a nuclear confrontation every bit as serious as the Cuban Missile Crisis of the early '60s.

>The Liberty Incident Revealed is the complete and final story about the Israeli Air Force and Navy attack on the USS Liberty during the Six Day War in June 1967. Cutting through all of the controversy and conspiracy theories about Israel's deadly attack, Cristol revises his well-regarded book about the event with an expanded and in-depth analysis of all of the sources, including the released tapes of the National Security Agency (NSA) intercepts.

>When Cristol's first book on the subject, The Liberty Incident, was published in 2002, there remained many unanswered questions about Israeli Air Force audio tapes. The NSA intercepts tapes had not yet been released in 2002. Some conspiracy theorists alleged the NSA tapes would prove that the Israeli attack was premeditated. Cristol's successful Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the NSA, while resulting in the release of those tapes, has been greeted by anti-Israel sources insisting that the NSA tapes are fraudulent and are part of a larger conspiracy to deceive the American public.

>After a quarter of a century of intensive research in both Israel and the U.S., researching all relevant archives from NSA, CIA and the State Department, reviewing both formerly classified and open source documents, and interviewing all then-living individuals directly involved in the incident, the factual and documentary record is clear. Cristol maintains that despite the fact that all of the official records and transcripts are now available for review, the truth has proven to be of no interest to those individuals and organizations who are motivated by hidden agendas, wish to keep conspiracy theories alive, or are trying to feed sensational stories to the media. Documenting his findings in six new chapters, Cristol establishes definitively that the Israeli attack was a tragic mistake and presents a convincing argument that will be regarded as the final chapter in the long-simmering debate about this incident.

>The crew of the USS Liberty is the most decorated crew since World War II and among the most decorated for a single engagement in the entire history of the United States Navy. Virtually unarmed, America's premier Spy-Ship was attacked while in international waters by Israeli planes and torpedo boats on 8 June 1967. 34 US Sailors and Marines were killed and 174 wounded.

>The attack on the USS Liberty remains the only incident of damage to a major US ship since the sinking of the USS MAINE in Havana Harbour in 1898, prior to the Spanish-American War, that has not been investigated by the US Congress.

>Author and activist Eileen Fleming condenses nine years of research and interviews with USS LIBERTY Veterans in the first book of a series seeking:

>A new Court of Inquiry to be convened by the Department of the Navy, operating with Congressional oversight and public testimony from surviving crew members; to thoroughly investigate the attack on the USS Liberty, with full cooperation from the National Security Agency, the Central Intelligence Agency and the military intelligence services, so as to determine Israel’s motive in launching the attack on the USS Liberty so as to end the USA Government Cover-Up and its dishonoring of the Liberty Veterans.

>This book calls to every appropriate committee of the Congress of the United States to investigate the actions of the White House and Defense Department who prevented the rescue of the USS Liberty and threatened the survivors if they told their eye witness experiences to the American people.

>The ultimate intention of this book is to establish the eighth day of June to be known as "USS LIBERTY REMEMBRANCE DAY, in order to commemorate the Liberty’s heroic crew and to educate the American people of the danger to our national security inherent in any passionate attachment of our elected officials for any foreign nation.” - Admiral Thomas H.

>On June 8, 1967, the virtually unarmed USS Liberty (AGTR-5), the U.S. Navy’s most sophisticated spy ship, while monitoring communications in international waters in the eastern Mediterranean during the Six-Day War—to find out if the Soviet Union was assisting its Arab client states—was viciously attacked by unmarked Israeli jets and marked Israeli motor torpedo boats.

>The unprovoked, premeditated assault murdered 34 young American boys and wounded 174, out of a crew of 294, an almost 71% casualty rate. The ship took nearly 1,000 cannon and rocket holes—some the size of basketballs—as well as over 5,000 armor-piercing shells, through the skin of the vessel. The Israelis dropped napalm on the defenseless ship and shot at sailors attempting to rescue the wounded and put out fires, as well as firing on all the remaining life rafts, a war crime.

>Caught in the act after a Liberty SOS was picked up by the USS Saratoga (CV-60) hundreds of miles away conducting drills with other vessels of the Sixth Fleet, Israel claimed the massacre was an “accident,” a case of “mistaken identity,” a lie none of the survivors could ever believe.

>The truth is the Saratoga broadcast a message “in the clear” after they scrambled 12 F-4 fighter bombers to come to the aid of Liberty. Sadly, help never arrived, as these jets and another sortie were recalled by none other than the President of the United States, who initiated a cover-up that lasts to this day.

>Find out the whole story of this national disgrace in the pages of Erasing the Liberty: The Battle to Keep Alive the Memory of Israel’s Massacre on the USS Liberty.

>“Phil Tourney and Dave Gahary have captured the horror and devastation experienced by those of us who were aboard the USS Liberty on June 8, 1967. The firsthand accounts of the Israeli attack on a lightly armed U.S. intelligence gathering ship are both troubling and moving. They clearly express the organized chaos of the men who lived through this attack, an attack unique in U.S. naval history. It is clear, with documented overflights by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reconnaissance aircraft prior to the attack, the use of unmarked IDF jets, the accuracy of IDF pilots who hit all strategic shipboard targets, and a cover story that makes no sense at all, that this was a well planned and executed Israeli attempt to remove real-time witnesses before they annexed the Palestinian lands taken as the Six-Day War wound down. Seeing the attack through the eyes of the USS Liberty crew gives the reader a sense of being there. A good read and an important historical document that exposes a new insight into previously rewritten U.S. history.”

>Phil Tourney provides an eyewitness account of Israel’s 1967 attack on the USS Liberty. While patrolling in international waters in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea on June 8, 1967, the unarmed, intelligence-gathering vessel confronted an enemy they never expected: Israel. In an unprovoked and vicious attack, unmarked Israeli jets pounded the Liberty with cannon fire, rockets, and napalm, while the American crew tried to make sense of what was happening, as their friends and shipmates were blown apart by the Zionist state’s weaponry. After the jets murdered nine helpless Americans, Israeli motor torpedo boats (MTBs) moved in for the kill, firing machine guns and launching five torpedoes, with one hitting its mark, instantly blasting apart 25 Liberty crewmen. The MTBs continued firing upon the damaged ship, hoping to hit the boilers, as those aboard were unsure if they were on their way to a watery grave, as the massive hole in the Liberty continued to let tons of seawater in. Expending their ammunition, the MTBs retreated, and a new, armed adversary approached the stricken vessel: Israeli troop helicopters with commandos aboard to finish the job. All the while, the nearby U.S. Sixth Fleet, hearing the Liberty’s cries for help, launched fighter aircraft, only to be recalled by the White House.
