Hummm , i am sorry to tell you that maybe false .The ship was attacked by mistake. The Israelis thought it was an Egyptian ship. The Ship lacked correct Identifying markers, and earlier in the day, the town of Arish was shelled from the sea. The pilots accidently thought the ship shelling Arish, was the Liberty.
But anti-semites will gladly blame a Jew for the sun rising and setting, so this is nothing new.
The Israelis were afraid the American ship was being monitored by Moscow and that military leaks would fall into Egyptian hands
