as way of p.s. I continued my correspondence with this ex-USS Liberty officier and we discussed legal actions.

A DC law firm asks for $50'000 retainer estimating total cost $250'000+ to "try" to force the government to respond to its legal obligations to an official War Crimes Report by surviving members of our USS Liberty.

Absolutely scandelous.

Not to mention the attack by Israel on the USS Liberty or Jonathan Pollard.......some ally, indeed.

here a partial copy of an email I received from a USS Liberty survivor. I'd like to share it with you - many here online like "honest_news" deny the facts ;

Unfortunately, it has been two years since we filed our War Crimes
Report. The
Department of Defense has not responded in any way, even though they are
required to do so. Privately people are told that "it has already been
investigated," which is not so. A retired Navy Judge Advocate General,
Rear Admiral Merlin Staring, called personally upon the Secretary of
Defense to urge their support and to elicit a response, but they declined.

We keep looking for other approaches, but if the US government does not
want to obey the law, there is little a citizen can do to compel compliance.

lars-

I see you still haven't sought any help for your Islamophobia...too bed.

the war that fascist nazi Islamic muslims started and continues on yet today%u2026%u2026

The Truth about Islamic Crusades and Imperialism
Historical facts say that Islam has been imperialistic%u2014and would still like to be, if only for religious reasons. Many Muslim clerics, scholars, and activists, for example, would like to impose Islamic law around the world. Historical facts say that Islam, including Muhammad, launched their own Crusades against Christianity long before the European Crusades.

The civil war mushrooms out of control and Fearless Leader STILL doesn't get it. We surge troops into one area, and the insurgents surge out into another. Wack-a mole, cat and mouse, hide and seek.

Because of Bremer's and Rummy's bungling the chances of success are negligible. We'd have better luck trying to nail jelly to a tree. The problem is it's going to cost a lot more lives and limbs before we finally have to pull out with nothing to show for it except severe damage. Damage to our soldiers and their families, damage to our armed forces, damage to our world standing and moral authority, and because of this crew of thugs in our White House, severe damage to our security and our Constitution.

Heckovajob George.

Oh and here's your orange jumpsuit uniform and welcome to your new quarters. Oh him? That's Bubba, your new roomy. I hear he's been very anxious to meet you and get very close to you.

Light's out in ten minutes.

Well, just another day in hell. We have brought this on ourselves it is time to pull out of Iraq. When you fight a war you are supposed to beat your emeny into the ground where they no longer have the will to fight back. That is why war is to be avoided at all cost. However, the cons think that war can be clean it is not and never will be. But they don't care because they get the poor to fight their wars. I say let's send the cons to Iraq and let them fight it out.

[formrusmcsgt]

More proof of the "squeeze the balloon" effect that occurs when fighting guerilla forces. You squeeze here, it expands there.

The neocons claim the surge is effective because there is a drop in deaths in Baghdad proper. It means nothing if the violence just shifts to other areas.

The attacks continue, just on different targets proving every time tha fallacy of a strategy that pits a standing army against guerilla forces.

The guerilla forces choose their time and place and are not stupid enouh to attack where we are, they'll attack where we are not.

[zoroastor]

Tell me again neo-cons how things are improving in Iraq. How is the surge working?
Before you answer, I'm not looking at this string of incidents in isolation. Nor should you. This is the reality in Iraq.

It seems that the Talking heads are now telling us that BUSH has FINALLY, after 4 LONG years, come up with something that works. They say we can NOW see progress and the Sunni's aren't killing Shiite or the other way around as bad as they were. So now we can win IF we stay another 5 or 6 years, they say. Win WHAT!! Can anyone out there tell me what the HELL we stand to WIN that we haven't already won. Are we going to stop a civil war in this nation? Well just ask the folks in Bosnia that question. You can stall it but you can not stop it. This is INSANE. We went there to PROTECT THIS NATION. To remove WEAPONS and to distroy those who attacked us. There are NO weapons and those who attacked us are in ANOTHER country. What Bush wants is a model little country, a lap dog, that can be trained. That isn't going to happen folks.
