Al Jazeera investigates the shocking truth behind a deadly Israeli attack on a US naval vessel.

In 1967, at the height of the Arab-Israeli Six-Day War, the Israeli Air Force launched an unprovoked attack on the USS Liberty, a US Navy spy ship that was monitoring the conflict from the safety of international waters in the Mediterranean.

Israeli jet fighters hit the vessel with rockets, cannon fire and napalm, before three Israeli torpedo boats moved in to launch a second more devastating attack.

Though she did not sink, the Liberty was badly damaged.

Thirty-four US servicemen and civilian analysts were killed, another 171 were wounded.

Later Israel apologised for what it claimed to be a tragic case of mistaken identity.

It said that it had believed the ship to be hostile Egyptian naval vessel.

US President Lyndon Johnson was privately furious but publicly the White House chose not to challenge the word of its closest Middle East ally and accepted that the attack had been a catastrophic accident.

However, as this exclusive Al Jazeera investigation reveals, fresh evidence throws new light on exactly what happened that fateful day - and the remarkable cover up that followed.

An Al-Jazeera America "documentary" with the inflammatory title, "The Day Israel Attacked America," promotes the myth of a far-reaching conspiracy regarding what repeated investigations have determined was a tragic accident, Israel's attack on the Navy's U.S.S. Liberty during the 1967 Six-Day War. Al-Jazeera recycles discredited charges that Israeli pilots knew beforehand they were about to attack an American ship. In this video, as in previous such works, some former Liberty crewmen and like-minded conspiracists insist that the U.S. government, including the Pentagon, intelligence agencies and Congress, failed to investigate the attack. In reality, six separate inquiries determined the attack to have been a "fog of war" mistake:

• C.I.A. report – June 13, 1967 – No malice; attack a mistake.
• U.S. Navy Court of Inquiry – June 18, 1967 – Mistaken identity.
• Report by presidential advisor Clark Clifford – July 18, 1967 – No evidence ship was known to be American.
• Senate Select Committee on Intelligence – 1979/1981 – No merit to claims attack was intentional.
• National Security Agency – 1981 – Mistaken identity.
• House Armed Services Committee – 1991/1992 – No support for claims attack was intentional.

[...]

Citing a number of examples, CAMERA's 2000 report points out that "friendly fire – mistaken attacks against allies or one's own forces – are an unfortunate reality of war." In one, in the First Persian Gulf War in August 1991, two American pilots air-launched Maverick missiles that turned a pair of British armored personnel carriers (APCs) into burning wrecks, killing nine British soldiers. How could the American pilots misidentify and attack British armored vehicles in broad daylight in the desert? Could they not tell the difference between APC's of our British NATO allies and the Soviet-supplied ones used by Iraq? How could they have missed the special markers that identified the vehicles as British?

The answer, of course, is that in the fog of war the U.S. pilots missed the markers and misidentified the British armored vehicles, just like the Israelis who missed the American flag (which was hanging down in still air) of the U.S.S. Liberty and misidentified it as an Egyptian ship. Nowhere in Al-Jazeera America's documentary, not only one-sided but also sloppy, is mention made of the CIA report that the Liberty could have been mistaken for the Egyptian ship El Quseir.

And: as some people here like to instantly dismiss certain information as "Zionist propaganda", it has to be made clear once and for all that Al Jazeera is an Islamist propaganda outlet of the state of Qatar, in part specifically tailored for a gullible Western audience, which has no problem with giving praise to some of the most brutal terrorists. Like these:

Al Jazeera Throws Party for Child Killer Samir Kuntar

Samir Kuntar

He is the terrorist leader that Al Jazeera showcased on their TV show with a Birthday Party AFTER he and muslims under his charge slaughtered a Jewish family. HE PERSONALLY picked up the four year old Jewish girl by her feet and slammed her head in a rock until she died. ANYONE who subscribes to a cable television company that carries Al Jazeera has this little girl's blood and the blood of thousands ON YOUR HANDS.
