The Dangerous History Podcast Ep. 0281: “The Best-Planned Mistake”: The Israeli Attack on the USS Liberty
CJ is back with a beast of a DHP episode that he’s been brewing laboriously for over a month, if not two.
On June 8th, 1967, during the Six Day War, the USS Liberty, a virtually unarmed signals intelligence ship operating off the coast of Egypt, was attacked by Israeli planes & torpedo boats. 34 men were killed, 171 were wounded, & the ship was nearly sunk before the attack was finally called off. The Israelis claimed it was a tragic case of mistaken identity, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, and LBJ, America’s first “Israel-First” President, let them get away with it, & even helped cover it all up.
Tune in for the whole Dose of Historical MALinformation! This one’s a big red pill!
