Israel's air force and navy attacked the USS Liberty in June
1967 while the ship was in international waters. Israel attacked
and tried very hard to sink the intelligence eaves dropping ship so
that the USA would not know about Israel's war strategy. Many US
sailors died as a result of Israel's unprovoked attack the US naval
ship. The USS Liberty managed to escaped destruction at the hands
of Israel. LBJ said nothing to Israel about the incident, so he
would not offend American Jewish Democrats.
