USS Liberty Incident:The Missing Piece of the Middle East Peace Puzzle
June 8th 2007 marks forty years since the Israeli assault on the USS Liberty during the 1967 Six Day War. Survivors will gather at Arlington National Cemetery to honor their fallen shipmates and, at a weekend reunion including a ceremony at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, they will renew their resolve to preserve historical truth and pursue justice.
This day also marks two years since the USS Liberty Veterans Association formally presented its report War Crimes Committed Against U. S. Military Personnel, June 8, 1967 to the Secretary of the Army in his capacity as Executive Agent for the Secretary of Defense. (See http://www.ussliberty.org) Thus far there has been no reply to this administrative gambit; even so, the LVA continues to hope that the US Congress will eventually do the right thing and, according to its mandate “To define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offenses against the Law of Nations,” conduct a full and impartial investigation to settle the matter once and for all.
