Israeli forces attacked with full knowledge that this was an American ship and lied about it. Survivors have been forbidden for 40 years to tell their story under oath to the American public. The USS Liberty Memorial web site tells their story and is dedicated to the memory of the 34 brave men who died.
They simply allowed those responsible literally to get away with murder.
This week marks the 50th anniversary of the assault on the USS Liberty, and though it was among the worst attacks in history against a noncombatant U.S. naval vessel, the tragedy remains shrouded in secrecy.

Maybe a reference to Israel being against America's liberty (USS Liberty)? We've been sending them billions of dollars every year for a while now, liberty means to be free from oppression and/or servitude.
That's how those in power work, they play out abstract concepts in the real world through false flags and such.
Not saying this is the case, just an idea. The fact that we continue to send billions in foreign aid to a country that carried out an attack on one of our ships is mind blowing.

Maybe it was their independence gift to us.
Kind of like a backwards statue of liberty.
After all, Israel is a country of contraindications.
They fled ethnic cleansing by creating a country to cleanse palistinians from.

Right after world war 2 the US sent Money to Japan in exchange for research material collected from War crimes committed by Japan against China. Funny the way things work out.

Not one to rest on his laurels and recognizing that while this opportunity has never presented itself before, Bryce quickly briefed the President about the attack and the fact that it has never been investigated by the US government after which he slipped a USS Liberty Challenge Coin into Mr. Trump’s hand.
Bryce then spent time briefing the personnel accompanying Mr. Trump about the USS Liberty and of our effort to ensure the US government finally conducts an investigation of the attack. Everyone he spoke with was very interested in what Bryce had to say. Probably because many were either active duty military, veterans or – like USS Liberty Survivor Lloyd Painter – members or veterans of the Secret Service.
Arriving at the 50th anniversary of the attack coupled with the passage of Resolution 40 by The American Legion has wakened a sleeping giant. Americans are becoming aware of what happened to us during the attack and how we have been treated by Congress and by Americans who are more concerned about the well-being of the forces who attacked us than they are about their own countrymen.
