You see the kind of crap that occures when Liberals are running the White House?

How in the hell do you put a spy ship into a warzone and 450 miles away from support?

Plus McNamara's actions were completely cowardly....another Liberal handjob that expected the sky to fall if the US defended itself.

"The carrier USS Saratoga scrambled fighters to come to its assistance. But Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara recalled the fighters while they were in the air. Military experts maintain the secretary wasn't certain who was attacking the Liberty. They say he thought it might be the Russians and he didn't want to start World War III."

Anyway...

Israel did what it had to do.

I dont hold any grudges for what happened. I wish they would've just been up front with Washington but I dont know how much they could've or did trust the Liberals in the White House.

From time to time, we all may disagree with the foreign policy of the U.S., and believe that some of the military actions it takes are unjust, but never, ever, would I justify an attack on our armed forces by a foreign nation by claiming that that country was just doing "what it had to do".

I would imagine there are some Palestinians that believe they did what they had to do, also.
