1967: USS Liberty attacked by submarine USS Amberjack – Crew member blows whistle
compilation by Ray Songtree
Most accounts of the attack on the USS Liberty off the coast of Gaza in 1967 blame the Israelis. Then President Johnson is blamed for abandoning the ship, in order to not embarrass ally Israel for it’s “mistake.”
However, Johnson is quoted as saying “I want that goddamn ship going to the bottom! No help, recall the Wings.” He did not just say, “stay away,” he stated his intention. He wanted the ship to be sunk. The submarine USS Amberjack had escorted the Liberty all the way from West Africa. The Amberjack saw everything that happened, but did not aid the Liberty at all. Also recall that just three years before , the USS Maddox was NOT attacked in Gulf of Tonkin, but U.S. declared war on North Vietnam using the controlled media, claiming there was an attack.
For an 8 minute synopsis of what happened on June 8, 1967 and an introduction to false flag attacks, see this next video. Gulf of Tonkin is discussed. Then we will meet a USS Liberty survivor and hero whistle blower, with new information.
Richard Larry Weaver, who was on the deck of the Liberty when it was attacked almost 50 years ago, has suffered 34 surgeries and still has 60 pieces of shrapnel in his body. He has been in pain for almost 50 years. The Veterans Administration tried to deny him benefits, and changed his paperwork to deny he was ever on the Liberty. He had to fight for any help he got. Through his own investigation, Larry discovered that the submarine USS Amberjack fired the torpedo that hit the Liberty, not an Israeli torpedo boat. You will hear his testimony below. Only 2000 people had seen the youtube below, before I posted this. If you have been in the military or know someone who has, I ask you please to share this post with everyone you know. We have to ask, who are we serving?
Just as the Gulf of Tonkin incident was falsified so that Johnson could declare war on North Vietnam, a false flag attack on the Liberty was going to be blamed on Egypt. It is most likely that the attack was run by an international group who controlled both the USA and Israel. Five years later, the Bilderberg Group discussed what to do with the glut of petro dollars which Saudi Arabia would need to invest somewhere. They had this discussion 5 months before the price went up! The Bilderberg group was in on the plan for the 1967 Yum Kipper war and the price increase. Did they plan the 1967 attack on the Liberty? What we know for sure is that the U.S. and Israel acted together, not separately that infamous day, and to blame Israel alone is naive. It would also be naive to think that Johnson wanted a war with Vietnam on his own, or that he wanted a war with Egypt on his own. The international bankers created UN, Israel, the FED. Who told Johnson what to do that day?
The first photo to right is the injured US seamen after the June 8, 1967 attack on the USS Liberty. The injured man in foreground is Richard Larry Weaver. In second photo below is Larry on Maui with author Ray Songtree three years ago. Please listen to Larry’s account of what happened the day of the attack and his later investigation in youtube below. Thanks to website Federal Jack for producing this youtube. See link. Here is another interpretation of what happened that day.
Veterans need to ask. Is one really a hero to serve treasonous liars? At what point since the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin Incident, which was excuse to kill 3 million people in Southeast Asia, has our government ever become honest?
Is it patriotism to serve a flag run secretly by Globalists who care about nothing but their own power? Is it patriotism to be cannon fodder or to live with guilt the rest of your life? There are 22 veterans every day killing themselves because they know they were not “heroes” and saw and did things they cannot be proud of. Who are we serving? It is time to ask questions. It is time to be very brave, like Larry, and find out the truth.
Next, the testimony of Richard Larry Weaver. Here he discusses the USS Amberjack torpedo. Links to two more interviews below.

Israeli Pilot Speaks Up
http://www.washington-report.org/backissues/0693/9306019.htm
Fifteen years after the attack, an Israeli pilot approached Liberty survivors and then held extensive interviews with former Congressman Paul N. (Pete) McCloskey about his role. According to this senior Israeli lead pilot, he recognized the Liberty as American immediately, so informed his headquarters, and was told to ignore the American flag and continue his attack. He refused to do so and returned to base, where he was arrested. Later, a dual-citizen Israeli major told survivors that he was in an Israeli war room where he heard that pilot’s radio report. The attacking pilots and everyone in the Israeli war room knew that they were attacking an American ship, the major said. He recanted the statement only after he received threatening phone calls from Israel.
The pilot’s protests also were heard by radio monitors in the U.S. Embassy in Lebanon. Then-U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Dwight Porter has confirmed this. Porter told his story to syndicated columnists Rowland Evans and Robert Novak and offered to submit to further questioning by authorities. Unfortunately, no one in the U.S. government has any interest in hearing these first-person accounts of Israeli treachery.
Key members of the Lyndon Johnson administration have long agreed that this attack was no accident. Perhaps most outspoken is former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Thomas Moorer. “I can never accept the claim that this was a mistaken attack, ” he insists. Former Secretary of State Dean Rusk is equally outspoken, calling the attack deliberate in press and radio interviews. Similarly strong language comes from top leaders of the Central Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency (some of whose personnel were among the victims), National Security Council, and from presidential advisers such as Clark Clifford, Joseph Califano and Lucius Battle.
A top-secret analysis of Israel’s excuse conducted by the Department of State found Israel’s story to be untrue. Yet Israel and its defenders continue to stand by their claim that the attack was a “tragic accident” in which Israel mistook the most modern electronic surveillance vessel in the world for a rusted-out 40-year-old Egyptian horse transport. Despite the evidence, no U.S. administration has never found the courage to defy the Israeli lobby by publicly demanding a proper accounting from Israel.
**********
Remember, the USS Amberjack fired the torpedo. Israel will never admit anything because Israel works for the same Globalists that Johnson worked for. They have already said their torpedoes missed.
DIDN’T A USS AMBERJACK CREWMAN BECOME A WHISTLE-BLOWER ON THE FATAL US LAUCHED TORPEDO ATTACK ON LIBERTY? WHEN WILL (IF EVER) THAT INFO COME TO LIGHT? I FEEL SO DISGUSTED T HAT THOSE POOR US SEAMEN WERE THE VICTIMS OF THE GLOBALIST MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX PROPENSITY TO KEEP OUR GREAT NATION IN A SHOOTING WAR FOR OVER 90% OF THE YEARS WE’VE BEEN A “PEACE-LOVING ” NATION. I’M HOPING THAT POTUS WILL FOLLOW THROUGH WITH BRINGING THESE ATROCITIES TO LIGHT AND PERSECUTE THOSE “SWAMP=RATS” WHO ARE TRYING TO CONVINCE US ALL INTO FALLING FOR “THE NEW WORLD ORDER” THEY ARE PERPETUATING.
GOD BLESS DONALD TRUMP AND GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA!!
I don’t know of any Amberjack whistle blower. Larry’s detective interviewed the crewmen, but they didn’t come forward on their own, as far as I know.
It doesn’t surprise me one bit that they would try to blame the Amberjack to take the blame when it was Israeli planes and torpedo boats that attacked the Liberty, the Amberjack wanted to surface to help our boys in the water but was told to stand down by Johnson, planes were scrambled off a Carrier in the Med. but were turned back by Johnson. I was on the Amberjack from 1963, 64 , 65 and got off in 66 but my buddies were on it during that event.
You didn’t listen to Larry Weaver. “They” didn’t blame the Amberjack, the USS Amberjack if fact did fire torpedoes under Johnson’s orders, as Larry’s investigation discovered. Why didn’t you listen to what he said?
The Amberjack had escorted Liberty from West Africa and would never have surfaced. Listen to Larry Weaver’s testimony.
While the fact remains that Israel did attack the USS Liberty and that the US government was a collaborator in the attack, I find that the real point is WHY this was done. And did the US know in advance this attack would happen? Consider this information in the attached link. I find this to be very plausible. http://israelect.com/ChildrenOfYahweh/Other%20Reading/lsd.htm
As of this date I still am unable to locate the USS Amberjacks Deck logs, Also unable to locate USS Saratoga’s Deck Logs for 1967, Hard to find I was able to locate USS America’s June 1967, I was aboard the USS America then CVA-66 a plane captain for fighter squadron 102, no.106 standing duty C.A.P., Lt Brown, Ltjg Dortherty, R.I.O. were launched along with VF-33, F4’s full armed.
I recovered my aircraft, she returned with no weapons, Lt Brown was really pissed off, he kicked me, wanted no help, he said we shot down a Mirage. dortherty confirmed. have a little more information.
Thank you Ron. I don’t know, but I would imagine USS Amberjack is suppressed info.
I was Leading Sonar Technician on the USS Amberjack SS522 in 1967. If you or anyone cares to look at a recent document written by Dr Anthony Wells with my assistance you can find it here. https://www.navalhistory.org/2020/01/07/dispelling-a-uss-liberty-theory I can categorically say that we never followed the USS Liberty from West Africa, we were not in the vicinity of the Liberty during the attack on her, we never fired any torpedoes during our Med deployment nor were we in a position to render aid. I read one account that said because we were equipped with a snorkel it allowed us to sit on the bottom and bring in air. This person obviously knows nothing about diesel electric subs. Snorkel depth is 58 feet and if you go deeper than 60 feet or so the snorkel intake is under water. And sitting on the bottom could damage the under the bow sonar dome and other equipment. I’ve also read we photographed the attack with special camera equipment mounted on our bow. There was special equipment mounted on the bow but it was for sonar. It was sensitive hydrophones that fed into a special recorder (at that time). Pretty difficult to photograph an attack from 100 miles away while you are submerged. Some of the crew may have been confused because during our operation we did have explosions from an unknown source that were close enough to hear through the pressure hull. We received no damage. We also went to battle stations and I tracked two surface contacts on sonar. We dove deep and departed the area. This happened at night time I know for a fact. Liberty was attacked in the afternoon. The crew members of a sub that do not have security clearance do not always know what is going on in the mission as cleared people are not allowed to tell them. I have been on 3 missions on 3 different boats and this was always the case. My real regret is that Mr Weaver paid someone to investigate and they didn’t do a very good job and provided him with hearsay. It’s unfortunate. I have submitted a detailed account to members of the USS Liberty Survivors organization and they printed in the newspaper that they believed my account which states we were not in the vicinity and did not fire a torpedo at them. I have also been in contact with Mr Ron Kukal author of “Remember the Liberty” and he also believes my account. Why did a crew member or members make statements that we attacked Liberty? I can’t speak for them and I only know of one person an E3 fireman on his first mission. But he apparently will not come forward. I’m sure I will never get all the accusations that my boat fired a torpedo at USS Liberty off the internet but I have at least tried to set the record straight. It’s bothersome to me that people would think we fired on and killed fellow sailors especially when it is not true.
Dear Mr. Taylor,
Who pays you to look for information like this that I posted? Why are you “trying to set the record straight”? I believe Larry Weaver.
His investigator had three cell phones burn up in his hands and quit in fear. His investigator found the Amberjack crewman who armed the torpedo.
Crew members below deck on USS Liberty heard the French made Israeli torpedoes miss as they whizzed by. It is you who don’t understand what happened in in 1967. I strongly suggest that you read this book…. JFK: The CIA, Vietnam, and the Plot to Assassinate John Kennedy by Fletcher Prouty. I wish you well in your research.
Just another paid Zionst or compromised troll.
It’s only common sense… All spy ships would have a submarine escort. then if not…let’s hang those who did not order it but we all know who shot the torpedo into the USS Liberty..after IsRealHell failed to sink it. Once you start waking up to the truth you can see exactly how the demons operate.
