Documentary: The Day Israel Attacked America

Extensive Interviews with USS Liberty Survivors' - Audio tapes obtained by award-winning British filmmaker Richard Belfield prove what every USS Liberty survivor, former Secretary of State Dean Rusk, and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Thomas Moorer have said all along that Israel deliberately attacked an American ship. The plan was to sink it, blame Egypt, and draw the US into the Six-Day War on the Israeli side, but the heroism of the Liberty crew in fighting ship damage, often while wounded, prevented it from sinking with all hands. The tapes are featured in "The Day Israel Attacked America" by filmmaker Richard Belfield, whose previous production credits include National Geographic TV and Discovery Channel.
