On June 8, 1967, #Israel attacked an American Navy ship in international waters. The Israeli military knew the ship was American, and that it was not a threat. They aimed to sink the ship, and blame Egypt, in order to involve the U.S. in the Six Day War.

President Johnson ordered the U.S. Navy to cover up this deliberate attack. The Navy Board inquiry complied with this order, over the resignation of one of its members.

The father of John McCain, Admiral John S. McCain, complied with the cover-up order.

34 American servicemen were killed, the Navy ship Liberty was so badly damaged in the nearly hour long attack, which included Israeli gunboats firing at lifeboats at close range, it had to be scrapped.

The day Liberty died.

This incident occurred less than four years after the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which involved the U.S. in the war on Vietnam. The attempt to involve the U.S. in the Six Day War in this case failed, despite the efforts of #Israel and the U.S. government itself.

Now the United States appears to be undertaking a war of aggression against Iran. They will use these same false flag methods, tried and true now for all of my life.

I am sick of this machine. If we don't stop it -- it will kill us all.
