In the months and years after September 11, 2001, there was plenty of commentary in the alternative media that implicated Israel in the events of that day. I had my doubts about that, not because I ever believed the fairy tale about nineteen Arab hijackers, or the boogeyman terrorist Osama bin Laden, much less Bush Junior’s line that “they hate our freedom,” but because there was no smoking gun, as there had been on June 8, 1967 during the six-day war, when Israeli air and naval forces strafed and torpedoed the U.S.S. Liberty, murdering 34 American sailors in cold blood and wounding 171. (They failed in their attempt to send the ship and its entire crew to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, an act sure to be blamed on Egypt, which would have incited hatred in America against the entire Arab world.) Nevertheless, knowing how Israel’s leaders operate and have always operated, as in the case of the Liberty, I kept an open mind on the subject.
