Finally! After lots of name calling, changing the
subject and non sequiturs, Weeks gives a source
which he alleges contains information concerning
Congress investigating the Liberty and concluding
that the attack was an accident.


Idiot;


Weeks does what he does best, he resorts to childish
name calling. If he had a strong case, there would
be no reason for his constant insults, his arguments
alone would carry the day. But, considering how often
he engages in name calling, his case must be very,
very weak.

He acknowledges that Congress has never conducted an
investigation devoted solely to the Liberty affair.

Congress did investigate a single aspect of the
Liberty incident, relating to DOD communications,
which did not look at the question of whether the
attack by Israel was intentional. In fact, none of
the links provided by Cristol is to a Congressional
investigation into the question, "was that attack
on the USS Liberty intentional?"

Weeks, if I am wrong, please provide a link to a
Congressional investigation which looked into whether
the attack on the USS Liberty was intentional. You can't,
because Congress never conducted such an investigation.

To say that Congress never found evidence that the attack
was intentional is being disingenuous. If there was no
investigation, then there was no conclusion. But to imply
that Congress thoroughly investigated the Liberty affair,
and to further imply that this investigation exonerated
Israel, is the kind of dishonesty recently practiced by
President Bush in convincing our country to invade Iraq.
Bush can accurately say that he never directly accused
Saddam of being behind 9/11, but his implications were
so strong that a majority of U.S. citizens were convinced
at the beginning of the assault on Iraq that Saddam was
directly responsible for 9/11. Bush is an expert in
using weasel words, just like Weeks. Maybe Bush went to
the same disinformation school that Weeks attended.
