What he's talking about is the Israel's attack on the USS Liberty, which occurred in the middle of the 1967 Israel/Arab war:

I really don't understand the backwards logic that this intentionally done to get the US to give Israel military support. It really doesn't make sense. If it was a black flag ploy, there would have been much easier ways to pull that off. |
So why were they attacked then? Most of the survivors say they had waived at the Israeli planes before the attack. Watch the survivors talking about the incident. They all believe Israel deliberately attacked the U.S Navy ship.
Tell me why you think that is and what reason Israel would have to kill American citizens.
Here are the stories of the survivors. How anyone can defend this is beyond me. Truly despicable.
