Are you aware in 1967 that their jets attacked one of our naval vessels, the USS Liberty? Killing 34 Sailors and wounding 171. They inflicted 821 rocket and and machine gun holes in the ship with planes flying as low as 200 feet and they claim that they thought it was an Egyptian vessel. Do you think it would have been that hard to tell the difference between an Egyptian and an American boat? Please check out the book "Assault on the Liberty ", by James M. Ennes, Jr.

40 year old story.
You do know that Israel has given us great intel about the Middle East.
They have share some military weapons with us to make our troops safer.
Now about this century 9/11 was caused by whom?
Muslim terrorist
London bombings?
Muslim terrorist
I rather live in the present than have to dig up a 40 year old story.
BTW: Here is part of the story you didn't hear. LBJ was warn not to put the intel ship so close and ingore the warnings.

To those that claim that Israel attacked the Liberty knowing that it was an American ship...
There have been six official investigations undertaken both by the Israelis and the Americans that all concluded that it was a friendly fire incident.
That being the case, any claim to the contrary is merely conspiracy theory hogwash.
Here is my previous discussion on the matter:

In a well-known article published in the Middle East journal in 1948, kermit Roosevelt, an American intelligence expert on the Middle East, described (and criticized) the Zionist lobbying effort, observing that "Almost all Americans with diplomatic, educational, missionary, or business experience in the Middle East protest fervently that support of political Zionism is directly contrary to our national interests, as well as to common justice."
I agree.

Yes, sometimes it is hard to tell the difference between the boats of one side and another. That's why there is some friendly fire in every war, a lot of times with a country accidentally killing its own people.
Israel doesn't need to do anything for us. When a woman is in a burning building, the firefighters don't ask her what she'll do for them if he rescues her. We help Israel because it's the right thing to do.
