The Captain of the Liberty got a Medal of Honor under the strictest secrecy:

He plunged into a dark depression and died an alcoholic.

Over 30 sailors died and I believe over 170 were wounded over the course of rocketing, napalm and machine-gun attacks.

It lasted hours.

Untold story made short: the attack was known before hand but nothing was done.

BS, the Israeli pilot refused to sink the ship against orders broke off the attack when he saw there was a mistake.

Now you should commit sepeku for your slander.
