Nader Presses McCain on Liberty Attack
October 31, 2008
Knight Ridder

Adding to his usual criticisms of the "corporate candidates" from the two major parties, independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader yesterday introduced a wrinkle, calling on John McCain to come clean about Israel's 1967 attack on the USS Liberty.

"He doesn't like to have his character impugned. I'm challenging his character on this point," Nader said in a news conference at the Statehouse.

McCain was not involved in the incident, which killed 34 American sailors amid the Six-Day War between Israel and several Arab nations. Israel said the attack was a case of mistaken identity, and McCain's father, Adm. John S. McCain Jr., approved an investigation that determined the incident was a mistake.

Nader is among those who think the report was a cover-up. He's dragging McCain into it because the senator wrote a positive note on a 2002 book, The Liberty Incident, that also concluded the attack was an accident.

"He has been asked again and again by these Sailors and their families to come clean," Nader said. "Instead, he endorses a propaganda book that says it was accidental. That reflects on his character."

The McCain campaign declined to respond.

It's unfortunate,

It's unfortunate, because--as a Christian and respecter of Hebrew traditions, I couldn't care less what Israel does or doesn't do. It is wholly irrelevant to the American Republic.

That would be the Founders' position on the matter.

Knocked out? Ralph Nader

Knocked out?

Ralph Nader calls out McCain on something this old, and this trivial (I doubt you could find one American in 1,000 who's even heard of the "Liberty"), and you think its a "knock out"?

I think McCain is a total douchebag, but this will get noticed by NO ONE- if 0.5% of the electorate even hears about it, I'll be shocked.

Geez, tone down the titles of these posts. This isn't a knock out, its a swing and a miss, at best...

www.ronpaul2008.com

this is an info war

informing people educating them on this event makes people do research other things...the title is to get ones attention and in this case it does quite a good job.

What a title would you suggest?
***Swing And A Miss***

Good to 'see' you. All here

Good to 'see' you. All here are not ex-military. you might want to define " wet start" or offer some in sight. A link to story? just a suggestion. Personaly think it is a shame he didn't blow up his own plane.

Peace and freedom be with you, Clay

Exactly

Now there is a Homerun.
