There's a big mistake: you write that the attack on the US Liberty was June 8, 2024.

Dave, a very lively and informative discussion with you and Dr. Jones. Enjoyed learning something new.

Great to hear. If you--and other readers & listeners--feel sufficiently impacted by our message, I hope that you take the opportunity to write a note to your bishop, and perhaps other bishops in nearby dioceses.

Would it help people, do you think, if I provided an outline of a letter? I always want people's individual thoughts to penetrate through and for it not to be a form letter that they all get.

And remember, nothing tells a priest anf his bishop "I am concerned," like the sound of silence in the collection plate.

David I posted this interview on my families thread for my siblings two of which are Navy wives … the next morning both of these girls called me out as an anti-Semitic and told me never to contact them again 😳unbelievable the brain washing they have both gone through … I responded with disbelief that you could think that those boys had not been betrayed /sacrificed by their government for Zionist war propaganda … stupid girls 🧒🏼 good riddance sad 😢 but I’ll live with it…I guess my offense was that it came from Candace Owen and the Daily Wire… I didn’t care where it came from I just cared about the sacrificed young men and then they were told by superiors to never talk about it GOOD GRIEF … 🤷🏼‍♀️🥵

These times require courage. When evidence is sincerely offered for examination, and one is punished for that act, then one knows that one is following the correct course. Here is an article by author Laurent Guyénot, "Rememberin the USS Liberty," that appeared recently (2025-06-08) in the 'Unz Review': https://www.unz.com/article/remember-the-uss-liberty/
