‘Blood in the Water’: The Deadly Attack on the USS Liberty
On June 8, 1967, a series of airplanes and at least one helicopter attacked the USS Liberty … Pretty soon after the attack, Tel Aviv came forward to say that the attack had been an accident – a case of mistaken identity. Author Joan Mellen does not buy the Israeli version of events. In her history book Blood in the Water, Mellen lays out in detail why the attack on the USS Liberty was not only deliberate, but also directed by some of the top officials in the CIA and the American government … These black marks aside, Blood in the Water does make it abundantly clear that Israel not only knowingly attacked an American ship, but it did so with the intent of killing everyone onboard. Although America and Israel have been best of friends since 1967, Mellen’s latest work claims that this friendship is based on betrayal and spilt blood.

Joan Mellen’s ‘Blood in the Water’
If you are able read just one book in 2019, I urge it to be Joan Mellen’s Blood in the Water: How the U.S. and Israel Conspired to Ambush the USS Liberty. The author on the basis of meticulous research probes every detail to establish beyond a shadow of a doubt that the sinking of USS Liberty in the midst of the 1967 War is the greatest moral and political scandal in all of American history. In what was long described as a ‘mistake’ or ‘accident,’ Israeli planes and submarines attacked the Liberty, killing 34, wounding 174 American naval personnel … Her contribution goes far beyond what prior research and scholarly writing had established and alleged. She demonstrates that the real story of the Liberty attack was far worse than a cover-up of Israeli criminality, it was ‘collusion,’ that is, a deliberated collaborative attack by Israel and the United States.

‘Blood in the Water’: A ‘Gripping’ Look at the Attack on the USS Liberty
… The attack on the USS Liberty on June 8, 1967, during the Six-Day War, left 34 dead and 174 wounded, along with myriad unresolved questions even after Israel admitted responsibility, claiming it had acted in error. This book represents a massive undertaking … Disturbingly, the author’s solid research indicates that the United States and Israel collaborated in planning, executing, and covering up this operation in order to implicate Egypt, bomb Cairo, and precipitate Gamal Abdel Nasser’s downfall … Gripping from start to finish, with reflections on the price that soldiers pay for their commanders’ war agendas.

Leaving The USS Liberty Crew Behind
On June 8, 1967, Israeli leaders learned they could deliberately attack a U.S. Navy ship and try to send it, together with its entire crew, to the bottom of the Mediterranean – with impunity. Israeli aircraft and torpedo boats attacked the USS Liberty, a state-of-the-art intelligence collection platform sailing in international waters off the Sinai, killing 34 of the 294 crew members … Israeli messages intercepted on June 8, 1967, leave no doubt that sinking the USS Liberty was the mission assigned to the attacking Israeli warplanes and torpedo boats … Geiss shot back that one of his ships was under attack. Tellingly, [US Defense Secretary] McNamara responded: “President Johnson is not going to go to war or embarrass an American ally over a few sailors.”

Israel’s Attack on the USS Liberty: An Overview
On June 8, 1967, 34 American servicemen were killed and 174 were wounded during an Israeli attack on the USS Liberty.

More Evil Baloney at Disney’s Hall of Presidents
… I’m at Disneyworld … One thing I can say for Disney’s Hall of Presidents: it’s air conditioned. The presidents, we are told, have been our “leaders of liberty.” It never gets much better than that … Then we get to Franklin Roosevelt, who during the Great Depression – which had no cause, apparently – used his powers to make everyone better off. No one in that audience would have had the slightest inkling that unemployment remained in double digits throughout the 1930s. After the obligatory JFK idolatry, we get the apotheosis of Lyndon Johnson – who evidently had nothing to do with the Vietnam War … There’s more, but you get the idea: cartoonish propaganda we would laugh at if we saw it in any other country. This kind of propaganda is everywhere: in the media, in the universities, in popular culture, in politics, everywhere.

Don’t Believe the War Hype on Iran
… Like any other nation, Iran has demonstrated it will not succumb to outside pressure. The Iranians are far more likely to respond with defiance than capitulation. The United States would not accept another nation making demands on it, so it should be no surprise Tehran likewise refuses to do the same. This is a country, after all, that weathered eight years of conventional war in the 1980s against a militarily superior Iraqi army supported by the West – all at a time when Tehran was isolated from the international community and under an arms embargo. Indeed, as we see it playing out today, Washington’s hostility against Iran will not improve the regime’s behavior – it will only result in greater hostility directed at the United States. This is how wars start.

Swedish Government Considers Ban on Religious Schools, Except Jewish
Swedish Education Minister Anna Ekström has suggested that religious schools are “bad for society” and that stopping them was essential for integration. The Swedish government intends to stop the future establishment of private charter schools, as a means of indicating that it is a secular state … The assignment of special investigator Lars Arrhenius is to submit proposals for a total stop to the establishment of new primary and secondary schools which have a religious undertone … However, there may be one notable exception. Jewish schools are to be exempted from the ban, fellow Social Democrat Civilian Minister Ardalan Shekarabi assured following the criticism from the Jewish Central Council.
