The USS Liberty Incident: A Rosetta Stone for 9/11

     Why do some ideas gain traction while others lie dead in the water? What barriers to belief cause people to reject overwhelming evidence? These and other questions must be considered by researchers of the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on American soil.
     Every major claim of the “official version” of the events of 9/11 has been thoroughly disproven. Over a thousand facts point to the conclusion that 9/11 was an inside job. Nonetheless, only 12% of the American people accept this fact, while an overwhelming 67% accept the debunked official conspiracy theory.  (link)
     Why?
     Evidence alone is not sufficient to overcome disbelief, and facts alone are not sufficient for ideas to gain traction. The evidence will lead to belief, and belief will lead to action only if you can get a “yes” answer to the following questions:
1. Is the issue media friendly? That is, is it current, visual, and easy to understand?
2. Is the issue emotional?
3. Can the average person consider your position reasonable?
4. Has public understanding of the issue progressed to a degree that action may be generated?
5. Can the issue be linked to other highly emotional issues that have generated public concern?
6. Is there a clear target for public outrage?
7. Is the target isolated? That is, in the public mind, can the target of our outrage be separated from the rest of the herd?
8. Is your solution achievable and reasonable?
     This list is an adaptation from lists given in the book Managing Outside Pressure: Strategies for Preventing Corporate Disasters. My DBA dissertation was on monitoring corporate social responsibility; and I’ve spent over five years researching what causes things to go wrong and how to make them go right. I also teach a college-level course in advertising.
     For 9/11, the second weakest link is the first question: Is the issue media friendly? It's not very visual (high-level conspirators hidden in the corridors of power), it’s not current (solution: link it to current events) and it’s not as easy to understand as we’d like to believe. In this issue, each fact can be written off as an anomaly, and a thousand facts are bewildering.
     Ironically, the weakest link is the question: Is it emotional? Well, yes, it is highly emotional; but American support for Israel is also highly emotional. This belief in the Israeli regime acts as a barrier to belief in Israeli complicity in 9/11. Most Americans simply can not believe that the Lord’s “chosen people” and “America’s best friend in the Middle East” would murder a large number of Americans just to gain support for wars against people (Arabs and Muslims) who are already blamed for murdering a large number of Americans.
     That’s where the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty comes in. It’s less current than 9/11, but it can be linked to America’s present wars of aggression by way of 9/11. Here’s the line of thought:
1. We’re now fighting six simultaneous wars at a financial cost that exceeds the federal deficit, and at a human cost of more than 72,000 American servicemen and more than a million civilians.
2. Most of those wars have been started with no congressional approval and, in some cases, no congressional prior knowledge or discussion. All of them are traceable to unquestioned beliefs concerning the causes of 9/11. Officially, questioning those beliefs is labeled unpatriotic and may lead to criminal investigation of the person questioning those beliefs.
3. It’s high time we questioned those beliefs, leaving nothing off the table.
4. Since the evidence overwhelmingly points to involvement of U.S. government officials and the Israeli government, we must address the biggest sources of disbelief, by asking and answering the questions, “Would U.S. government officials be complicit in killing a large number of Americans just to get the U.S. involved in a war?” and “Would the Israeli government do this?”
5. The USS Liberty Incident undeniably proves that U.S. government officials and Israel would deliberately kill a large number of Americans in order to get America involved in wars that benefit Israel.
6. From the USS Liberty Incident, we can progress to the evidence that this incident wasn’t just a fluke of history. False flag terrorist attacks have been standard operating procedure for Israeli leaders since the 1930s—long before “modern Israel” even became a state.  The following links refer only to false flag terror attacks conclusively proving Israeli involvement: (link)  (link)  There are many terror attacks pointing to Israel without conclusively proving them.
7. We must make it clear, though, that Jews and Israeli political leaders are not one and the same, just as Catholics and the Mafia are not one and the same. It’s vital to separate American respect for Judaism from the irreligious criminals in charge of the Israeli regime. The Zionists and their cohorts, cowardly use Jews as human shields. Don’t let them get away with it.

     For those who aren’t familiar with the Liberty Incident, I’ll give a quick description and some links to follow.
     On June 8, 1967, during the Israeli Six-Day War with Egypt, Israeli war planes made several close passes of the USS Liberty over a period of several hours. Intercepted Israeli radio transmissions confirmed that they knew it was an American ship. Around 2:00 PM, a combined Israeli force of naval torpedo boats and Israeli Air Force planes began attacking the Liberty. They even machine gunned medical personnel and life boats. They wanted no survivors. They also jammed all five (some say four of the five) radio frequencies the Liberty used to call for help. In the attack. With a crew of 358 officers and enlisted men, 34 Americans were killed and 173 were wounded.  The Israelis broke off the attack only after a Soviet ship entered the area and became an inconvenient witness to the event.
     Subsequently the Israeli regime continuously changed their story as to how the “accident” could have happened. To give one example, they said that the American flag hung limp from the staff and could not be identified; that it was mistaken for the Egyptian flag. When evidence was provided that a stiff breeze made the American flag evident, they claimed that they’d thought that the Egyptians had literally used a false flag.
     Would top-level officials be complicit in a false flag event that would kill many Americans and push America into an unpopular war? That’s one of the barriers to belief in the 9/11 terror attacks; and the Liberty Incident answers it in spades.
     The President of the United States at the time of the Liberty Incident was Lyndon Johnson, a certifiable psychopath. On his path to power, almost ever obstacle to his rise was murdered; and, each time, suspicions pointed toward Johnson. The only exception was Speaker of the House Sam Rayburn. Johnson was Rayburn’s protégé; Rayburn treated him like a son. When Johnson was ready to make a bid for House Speaker, he flattered then-President Roosevelt into thinking that Sam Rayburn was Roosevelt’s secret enemy. Roosevelt pulled strings to have  Rayburn replaced by Johnson.
     The Pentagon Papers proved beyond any doubt that the Gulf of Tonkin Incident—the excuse for America’s formal entry into the Vietnam War—never happened.  (Notice that I often cite Wikipedia.  They're the Reader's Digest of our time.  They're not the most authoritative source of information, but they're trusted by more people than the authoritative sources are.)
     The Liberty Incident is far more visual—a shot-up ship which Israelis admit to having tried to sink, as opposed to 9/11 conspirators cloistered in the corridors of power—and far easier to understand than the events of 9/11. With the Liberty Incident as a touchstone, it’s easy to link to 9/11 and to Israel’s lengthy, proven history of false-flag terror attacks.
     The Liberty Incident is the very incident that should remove all barriers to belief that Israel, with American help, did 9/11. That, in turn, should be sufficient to expose the whole racket and send the Israeli criminals packing.
     The Israeli regime is not Jewish if, by Jewish, you mean observant Jews; the Israeli regime is a pack of irreligious criminals who, like corrupt politicians in the U.S., use religion as a cover for their criminality. The Israel regime is not America’s friend; it’s America’s enemy.
     Most elections are won or lost within a range of three percentage points. At least 12% of the American people believe that Israel did 9/11. If, by the 2012 Election Day, we can change that believe to outright commitment, we can kick those gangsters and their henchmen out of our government.
