Ukraine, Nuclear War, and the 1967 Sinking of the USS Liberty

by
Op-Ed

Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has come out with a strong statement on the Joe Rogan show that the driving force behind the US sending Billions of Bucks to Ukraine is for weapons manufacturers to make money. This includes the makers of nukes.

I find that plausible.  However, I am going to float another idea here — that somebody, somewhere, wants nuclear war to happen for power’s sake. First, I will discuss the fact that the US had a plan to nuke Egypt back in 1967 because Gamal Nasser looked like being charismatic in the Middle East. And today, Putin could be Nasser. Then I will quote two other men, Dr. Richard Day and Al Martin, on the US’s apparent willingness to nuke itself.

What? Yes, the United States often does things that are harmful to Americans. Think vaccine! But it does seem that someone in the US — or the globalists who control the US — are so reckless as to think they can drop nuclear bombs on the homeland. (When I say ‘globalists,’ I don’t mean Israel. I mean globalists.)

My story below may have merit, or may be worthless, but at least we ought to grow up to the point where we don’t have to believe that everything a national government undertakes coincides with its domestic public wants.

“The USS Liberty Incident,” So-called

Here I will abbreviate an article I published in 2019. It was based on Philip Nelson’s book Remember the Liberty. There’s no point calling this a conspiracy theory; the official Navy Inquiry already agreed that the Israeli planes attacked a US spy ship, to the point of almost sinking it.

Also, the US government admits to having initially dispatched planes to attack the attackers, but the White House yelled, “No, send them back to their carriers.” Furthermore, in 2000, the BBC ran Peter Houman’s documentary about the Liberty incident with the title Dead in the Water. So don’t give me grief about that much.

By the way, there’s a band of veterans still trying to make more Americans aware of this story.  Sadly, Congress refuses to conduct an investigation, even though it has always done so when a ship is attacked. The leader of the veterans is Joe Meador of Michigan. During the attack, 34 men died, another 174 were injured, and 86 were unharmed. As the very youngest sailor was 18 years old, born in 1949, all of them today are 73 years of age or older.

Long story short, the USS Liberty was ordered to go and wait in the Mediterranean. The crew saw Israeli planes attack them and called for help, but their radios were jammed. After a while, the planes flew off, but soon some motorboats came along and torpedoed the Liberty. Israeli shooters on those boats hit our men who were getting into lifeboats.

Meanwhile, as I said, US planes were sent to the rescue but were quickly recalled. The Liberty crew worked amazingly hard to prevent complete loss of the ship and brought it to Malta.

Now for the part that I believe but can’t prove. Evidence came into private hands that the US had planned to start a nuclear war on June 15, 1967. This was Operation Frontlet615. Israel was not yet at war, but she performed the famously successful Six Day War starting on June 5, destroying the 300 planes in Egypt’s fleet in one fell swoop.

According to Philip Nelson’s book, the nuclear plan had to be moved to an earlier date — June 8 instead of the “Frontlet” date of June 15.  Recall that the alleged goal was regime change in Egypt (partly because Nasser was schmoozing with Russia).

LBJ was OK with the nuking. But because the Liberty failed to sink, the big plan had to be chucked.  If the Liberty had sunk, it was to be announced that Egypt sunk it. (Betcha the media had the photos ready!). No doubt Americans would have supported retaliation.

Two Other Threats To Use Nukes Domestically

Pardon me for being a Cassandra, but I don’t subscribe to the psychology of “Hey Everybody, stay calm and think nice thoughts.”  If there is a danger, it is better to know of it. The matter today is Ukraine, but I won’t say much about that. The news constantly tells us that Biden might start war against Russia for invading Ukraine.  And just a month ago, the media was hinting that an N-war night start with China because of Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan.

Here are the two “at home” usages of nuclear weapons — though neither actually eventuated. One was mentioned in 1969 by a physician who worked for David Rockefeller, namely, Dr. Richard Day. He gave an after-dinner speech to medical students and their teachers and told them not to record it. One doctor in the audience, Lawrence Dunegan, MD, did take notes, and in 1988 he reported them on the Randy Engels Christian Radio show.

The Dr. Day speech should be widely known. He predicted many things that subsequently came true (such as new diseases and bridges collapsing). I consider his mention of N-weapons to be a trial balloon to see if anyone reacted angrily but they didn’t. Here is Dunegan’s recollection of what Day said regarding a New World Order:

“Out of all of this was to come the New International Governing Body, probably to come through the U.N. and with a World Court, but not necessarily through those structures. It could be brought about in other ways. Acceptance of the U.N. at that time was seen as not being as wide as was hoped. People would be more and more used to the idea of relinquishing some national sovereignty…

“We would bring in the ‘New International Political System.’ ‘If there were too many people in the right places who resisted this, there might be a need to use one or two or possibly more nuclear weapons.’ As it was put this would be possibly needed to convince people that, ‘We mean business.’ That was followed by the statement that, ‘By the time one or two of those went off then everybody, even the most reluctant, would yield’.” [Emphasis added]

 

My other “at home” example of Americans planning to nuke Americans comes from Al Martin. He is an ex-CIA man, and author of the 2002 book The Conspirators. Do you remember  Col. Oliver North, who worked in the White House Basement with General Alexander Haig, doing God knows what?

Al Martin says Ollie North had Operation Sledgehammer at the ready. It would use nukes to kill off 70 million Americans. Seriously. (You’d better re-read that sentence.)

Conclusion

I have no real conclusion. Some people may be getting ready right now, to make the most horrible attack. And where is the protest?  Better yet, where is the citizen’s arrest of whoever is likely to do such a zany thing?

“It’s up to you, New York, New York.”
