Very good info here. Highly appreciate it RNN

The USS Liberty event is one of the most important and also one of the highly suppressed events in modern American history. That is because the horrible and grisly truth about the USS Liberty reflects very poorly on Lyndon Johnson, the United States and Israel. Starting at 2PM Mediterranean time on June 8, 1967 Israel bombed, torpedoed, napalmed and even machine gunned the life boats of the USS Liberty. As I detailed in the second edition (paperback) of my NY Times bestseller The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ, Lyndon Johnson was the one who ordered Israel’s IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) to not just sink the USS Liberty, but also to murder every person on board and eliminate any survivors. The same man who murdered the president John Kennedy in 1963 is the same man who was hell bent on murdering all 294 Americans on board the USS Liberty in June of 1967: Lyndon Johnson.

"On the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying: “To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates, the Kenites, the Kenezzites, the Kadmonites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Evites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”" -----Genesis 15:18-21

Revelation 2:8-9 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; 9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

"Hear, O Israel, and be careful to observe them, so that you may prosper and multiply greatly in a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has promised you. And when the LORD your God brings you into the land He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, that He would give you a land with great and splendid cities that you did not build, with houses full of every good thing with which you did not fill them, with wells that you did not dig, and with vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant-and when you eat and are satisfied, be careful not to forget the LORD who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery." -----Deuteronomy 6:3,10-12

27:40 minutes, It's very interesting what Norman Finkelstein says about Zionism. Also the title is wrong, because it's 70 years of occupation not 50 years. The occupation started in 1947 when Israeli militias occupied almost 80 % of Palestine. The war of June 1967 was only the completion of the occupation of Palestine when the Israeli Army occupied Gaza and West Bank like Miko Peled proved very well in his speeches [see Miko Peled in www.youtube.com] and in his book The General's Son.

Your full of it being shelled from the Golan is not an act of war..

time for the truth...about israel, and the pity excuses

The whole narrative is that Israel want to do land grabs ... That they are colonialist! But who accepted the first partition plan (not happily) who accepted the second partition plan (much better for the Jews). Who gave back Sinai for peace ? Who proposed to give back Gaza and the west bank to Egypt and Jordan ? Who agree on the peace accord repeatedly ?(Last one proposing 99% of the territories allocated to the Arabs in 1947) Who would be happy to let the Golan heights in exchange for guaranteed peace ? Finally, who's religion says to stone to death the jews even if they are hiding behind rock and trees ? (Apparently the rock and the trees would help the muslims to locate the jews hiding)? Just tell me that those people are not religious ...

Does anybody know why Israel was so much more combat effective than the Arabs is it just better weapons from America?

Seen the new land grab being conducted against Native Americans? It's not a 100 year old problem. It's happening NOW. HERE, in THIS country. My comment was meant to illustrate the hypocrisy. Both are issues. Neither should be ignored. Palestinians and Native Americans have rights and those rights should be defended.

Many people are saying that Palestinians should be ethnically cleansed because of what is in the Bible. It's kinda eerie hearing people say that openly in Tel Aviv, yet no mention of it here. Taking land from the NA isn't the same thing as giving it all back. Honestly, the situation with the NA isn't much different from what's happening to the US public at large. In both cases, their rights are becoming something of a joke in the face of moneyed interests in a political system defined by money. Regulatory capture becomes the norm. Just as Blacks and Whites worked together to enforce civil rights for all Americans, so I think both American citizens and NA need to work together to enforce their own legal rights. They are not unrelated and both will continue losing until they realize this.

Once you bring names (Trump, Obama, Hillary, DNC, RNC) into the discussion, all agreement is lost.

Yes, we certainly should make reparations to the Native Americans: We should either give them back their land, where feasible, and definitely pay them for the land that was stolen from them!

Losers need to explain away their losses with more lies. And that unwillingness to admit reality is the root cause of Arab problems. Look at the facts, admit gross failure and get on with life.

It's what Jehovah has to say about Israel not what man says. Read the true history not just what man says. Study the Bible and true History. Jesus said Man teaches for doctrines the commandments of men (Matthew 15:9)

Don't threaten a man with a loaded gun and be surprised if he shoots first.

I was the last UNEF soldier to take dispatches from El Arish 67 a day before the shooting started. The Gaza Strip had been turned into a fortress of fortifications, dug in tanks, artillery, mortars positions and miles troop filled trenches, fields of fire marked. It was all USSR equipment with Russian "advisors". (And fighter jet pilots) Road blocks, minefields, barbed wire across miles of the Strip. In previous months we had watched hundred of tens of thousands of Eygption forces being shipped into Gaza by rail. Many nights they would rally around fires chanting what they would do to all "Yahootees". How the Israelis attacked and beat the massive defence is still beyond my understanding. To be sure there're many elements to the fighting but to dismiss the courage, determination, skill and sacrifices of the IDF soldiers as their victory was assured is REMF assessment. Clearly Norm was not one who had to face that Russian designed and well prepared offence/defence positions ( having taken months to construct. Norm was bravely reading news report about the fighting from his armchair when the IDF was having to face attacking three army on three fronts. The consensus of UNEF brass a few days prior to the war was the Israelis were out numbered, gunned and would lose. There was discussions by the brass as how to stop, or reduce the slaughter of Israelis when the Arabs army's took Israel. The Syrian Eygptions were fighting for national pride, revenge. The Israeli were fighting for their very survival, lose and it would be another holocaust as promised by the chanting Eygption troops. As professional soldier as were my father, grandfather and great grandfather it's hard to stomach hearing Norm dismissing the near annilation of the Israeli population as never having been concern and their victory assured. I can imagine soldiers that fought, suffered in these battles wanting to string Norm from a tank barrel. ( That is what the PA's did to some of our Palestinian workers for working for the UNEF. Hung them from a tank barrel ) The Cold War was a primary factor andI can only imagine the pain and suffering of all in the savagery of this war. However, I salute the braver, courage and determination of the IDF to stop another holocaust to their people.

That's why Nassar wanted to united them all.

Wow...this is truly one of the most laughable discussions I have seen on this topic. To begin with; any policy maker who does not know that intelligence can be wrong should not be in any position of making policy. And second, it would be extremely irresponsible to allow an enemy to attack even though you think you will be able to beat them in the long run. In warfare, the side on the offensive has all of the advantages and if you allow yourself to be attacked you will suffer higher casualties. It is very easy for you, sitting in your comfortable chair, to say in hindsight that the Israelis should have allowed the Arabs to attack first. But the leaders of Israel were concerned about their own soldiers and their own citizens. Which brings up another question; if the Arabs would have attacked first and had some initial success, how many Israeli citizens would have been killed in the war? Because as we have seen over and over, the Arab armies prefer to kill citizens rather than military targets because they are easier. Say what you will with the benefit of hindsight but the Israelis were faced with this back in 1967: "We shall not enter Palestine with its soil covered in sand, we shall enter it with its soil saturated in blood" - President of Egypt, Gamal Abdel Nasser, March 8, 1965 “it is the duty of all of us now to move from defensive positions to offensive positions and enter the battle to liberate the usurped land…Everyone must face the test and enter the battle to the end.” - President Attassi of Syria, Feb 22, 1967 "The existence of Israel has continued too long. We welcome the Israeli aggression. We welcome the battle we have long awaited. The peak hour has come. The battle has come in which we shall destroy Israel." - Cairo Radio, May 16, 1967 “We will not accept any…coexistence with Israel.…Today the issue is not the establishment of peace between the Arab states and Israel….The war with Israel is in effect since 1948”. - Gamel Abdel Nasser press conference, May 28, 1967 Israel was already at war with Egypt prior to the Israeli attacks of June 5, 1967; this according to Egypt's president Gamal Nasser himself and according to international law which viewed the blockade of the Gulf of Aqaba as an act of war. You guys really crack me up.
