Assault on the Liberty: The True Story of the Attack by Israel on an American Intelligence Ship

Chapter Six: AIR ATTACK

By James Ennes

Searing heat and terrible noise came suddenly from everywhere. Instinctively I turned sideways, presenting the smallest target to the heat. Heat came first, and it was heat–not cannon fire–that caused me to turn away. It was too soon to be aware of rockets or cannon fire.

“We’re shooting!” I thought. “Why are we shooting?” The air filled with hot metal as a geometric pattern of orange flashes opened holes in the heavy deck plating. An explosion tossed our gunners high into the air-spinning, broken, like rag dolls.

My first impression–my primitive, protective search for something safe and familiar that put me emotionally behind the gun–was wrong. We were not firing at all. We were being pounded with a deadly barrage of aircraft cannon and rocket fire.

A solid blanket of force threw me against a railing. My arm held me up while the attacker passed overhead, followed by a loud swoosh, then silence.

O’Connor spotted bright flashes under the wings of the French built jet in time to dive down a ladder. He was struck in midair, severely wounded by rocket fragments before he crashed into the deck below.

I seemed to be the only one left standing as the jet disappeared astern of us. Around me, scattered about carelessly, men squirmed helplessly, like wounded animals–wide-eyed, terrified, not understanding what had happened.

The second airplane made a smoky trail in the sky ahead. Unable to move, we watched them make a sweeping 180-degree turn toward Liberty, ready to resume the attack. My khaki uniform was bright red now from two dozen rocket fragments buried in my flesh. My left leg, broken above the knee, hung from my hip like a great beanbag.

The taste of blood was strong in my mouth as I tested my good leg. Was I badly hurt? Could I help the men floundering here? Could I help myself. Was it cowardice to leave here? (more….)

David Duke Replies to Lawrence Auster

Lawrence Auster has done some excellent writing on the racial crisis facing the United States. I have even promoted some of his articles. But recently he has taken to attacking Jared Taylor and me for not genuflecting before the altar of the Holocaust. (Inverted News) Anyone who has seriously studied the ongoing genocide (destruction) of our European heritage knows the paramount role of Jewish extremists in every aspect of our racial debacle. As every reader of Davidduke.com knows, Jewish supremacists who believe in the genetic superiority of the Jewish people and who have created a “Jewish state” in Israel, are the biggest promoters of diversity, multiculturalism, multiracialism, and egalitarianism for every other people on earth. The principle is simple. If the Jewish people are cultivated to be loyal, united and organized for themselves while every other people are taught that defending their own heritage is evil, the Jewish agenda can dominate. We see this principle clearly in the Iraq War, a war conceived and promoted by a Jewish radical fifth column in American government and media. This insane war, based entirely on lies, has resulted in the maiming or death of tens of thousands of Americans, loss of countless billions of American dollars, and damage to American interests around the world.

Multiculturalism and Multiracialism for non-Jews serves Jewish “divide and conquer” tactics. On my Website you can read where I quote from Jewish leaders stating clearly how they have a “divide and conquer” policy in the United States. Obviously, many European Americans have come to resist the immigration and other policies that lead to a genocide of heritage in America and Europe. A handful of Jews have written some excellent articles about the danger of immigration to European Americans. But, unfortunately, some of them are now “dividing and conquering” even the White resistance movement by trying to neutralize any opposition in our ranks to the Jewish supremacy in media and government. It is this supremacy that relentlessly leads our people to racial suicide. Until we dislodge it, there can be no survival for our people.   (more…)

Tamar Jacoby: The Little-Known Driving Force Pushing for Illegal Alien Amnesty

By Michael Collins Piper

Americans need to know precisely who is playing a critical part in shaping their nation’s policies and that’s why Americans need to know Tamar Jacoby. You may have never heard of her, but she’s influential in manipulating current attitudes and policies on the question of immigration.

Historically and traditionally, most Americans (especially self-styled “conservatives” who have long and rightly been critics of the immigration invasion) would be surprised to learn that an influential so-called “conservative activist”—the aforementioned Ms. Jacoby— had been responsible for the behind-the-scenes deal-making that led to the U.S. Senate’s adoption of a measure that will grant amnesty to at least 12 million—some say as many as 20 million—illegal aliens now in this country.

In the old days, the conservatives were in the forefront of fighting untrammeled immigration. But times have changed, and now that a powerful new brand of globally oriented, internationally minded conservative thinking reigns supreme in the upper reaches of the Republican Party, it was Ms. Jacoby who was a major player in hammering out the vaunted “compromise” on immigration now being debated for a presumed final showdown in Congress.
