Survivors of The USS Liberty dispute Naval investigation

BBC has produced an alternative story to what really happened in regards to the Israei attack on The USS Liberty. "USS Liberty:Dead in the Water" 2002

Along with the BBC the vertrans of The USS Liberty has a website dedicated to the events that took place on that fateful day.

"After the war erupted, due to concerns about its safety as it approached its patrol area, several messages were sent to Liberty" should be followed by who sent the messages.

The USS Liberty should not be referred to as a spy ship

It was a technical research ship and nothing more, to call it a spy ship makes it sound covert which is blatantly false Paranoid666 (talk) 04:32, 9 June 2025 (UTC)

USN Air Cover?

Does anyone have sources for the time when US navy planes were dispatched towards the Liberty and when they were recalled? I don't see that in the article and a (brief) google search doesn't show them. MilesVorkosigan (talk) 18:30, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
