That was many decades ago and Israel did apologizeLiberty was a state-of-the-art intelligence gathering vessel in 1967 which was sold for scrap after Israel's deliberate attack.I don’t know but the ship had to go and it was pretty trivial vessel

Finally, if the worst case scenario is true, shouldn't Americans, Israelis, and Egyptians know why the attack occurred:
New book: '67 Israeli attack on USS Liberty ordered by LBJ
"...that the U.S. and Johnson had decided to destabilize Egyptian President Gamal Abel Nasser by blaming his country for the attack.
"'It’s frustrating that the American people know nothing about this and that the U.S. perpetrated it,' he said."
