The story begins in the era of Ben-Gurion, the founder of “Israel” and its first prime minister. He attempted to equip “Israel” with an unconventional weapon, a deterrent against all the surrounding Arab forces, even if they united to invade “Israel.” His belief was that Arab countries could endure more than one military defeat and rise again stronger. However, “Israel's” fate is hanging on a single defeat, after which it would cease to exist and wouldn't have another chance to rebuild.
For this reason, he tirelessly sought and insisted that “Israel” possess nuclear power. However, at that time, the United States, led by President John F. Kennedy, completely rejected the idea that any country in the Middle East, including “Israel,” should have a nuclear bomb.
This was not out of hostility towards “Israel.” In fact, John F. Kennedy was a supporter of “Israel,” advocating for its existence, safety, and security, openly declaring this on several occasions. However, he believed that America's exclusive possession of nuclear capabilities would maintain its absolute control and complete independence in making crucial decisions in the Middle East and around the world. He feared that “Israel” involving itself in conflicts with its enemies could drag America into wars against the will of the American people and the U.S. administration.
When Ben-Gurion insisted on his demand and Kennedy did not comply, Ben-Gurion sought compensation by requesting the supply of “Israel” with the latest advanced American conventional weapons. Kennedy did not object, yet “Israel” still put him on its blacklist and conspired to eliminate him, especially after Ben-Gurion was sure that Kennedy would not accept anything less than complete American control over decisions of war and peace in the Middle East.
This became evident in two instances: first, during Kennedy's term, the United States refrained from using its “veto” power for the first time in its history to overturn a Security Council resolution condemning “Israel.”
The second instance was when Shimon Peres secretly sought to obtain nuclear technology from his friends in the French government. When Ben-Gurion was confronted with America's knowledge, he justified it for purely peaceful purposes. However, the Kennedy administration did not accept or believe this explanation. It requested that “Israel” subject its operations in this field to inspection and oversight by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). “Israel” vehemently rejected this proposal and pretended to accept this inspection by the United States only at its nuclear facility in Dimona. Recently, details of the “Israeli” deception have emerged, revealing that the control center for its nuclear activities was hidden behind a new building, presenting control procedures that provided false data about nuclear energy operations for peaceful purposes only.
Ultimately, Ben-Gurion succeeded in getting rid of John F. Kennedy by assassinating him in August 1963 through his intelligence agents and Zionist agents in American intelligence, with the support and betrayal of U.S. Vice President Johnson, who inherited power after Kennedy's assassination. Johnson harnessed the capabilities of the United States to serve Zionist plans in the Middle East, including his criminal role in the war of 1967.
Johnson’s goal was not only to destroy the military power of Egypt; “Israel” efficiently accomplished this mission in 6 hours, not 6 days. The objective was to destroy Egypt and ruin its future for decades to come, ensuring that influential leaders wouldn't emerge from it—leaders who could resonate with the masses of the Arab and Islamic worlds—and that the people of the Third World would find in these leaders a source of hope and a means to unite and rise above their backwardness, building unified and cohesive forces against American-Zionist schemes around the world. The aim was to obstruct their freedom, control their movements in shaping the world, plunder their wealth, and subject their people as desired.
During Abdul Nasser's era, obstacles began to emerge against the American advance, such as Arab unity and the positive neutrality and non-alignment movements. These movements received support from the Soviet bloc, reaping the benefits of spreading their socialist ideology and establishing military bases on the Mediterranean coast—something that Russia wouldn't have dreamed of without the emergence of its ally Abdul Nasser in the region.
Lyndon B. Johnson's ambitions went beyond merely eliminating Egypt from the power equation in the Cold War. He anticipated that Russia would intervene to protect its threatened interests in the region if America succeeded in its elimination plan. Therefore, Johnson prepared for this possibility by putting his nuclear forces on standby to launch against military targets in the Soviet Union.
Here comes the role of the “Israeli” attack on the “USS Liberty” ship. There was an agreement between Johnson and Ben-Gurion to destroy the ship with a single strike, eliminating everyone on board, so that there wouldn't be a single witness to tell its story. This would make it easier to accuse Egypt of sinking the ship, providing America with a pretext to deter Egypt with its nuclear weapon and later turn against the Soviet enemy to end it.
This plan aligned perfectly with “Israel's” Talmudic dreams of gaining control over the world after the two superpowers annihilated each other, even if rivers of blood flowed from millions of people on both sides. All of this was acceptable in the Talmudic promises to the children of Israel.
However, Allah’s will decreed the failure of “Israel” to sink the “USS Liberty,” and Johnson was forced to backtrack at the last minute from executing his hellish plan to bomb Cairo with nuclear bombs. This was because the true story leaked among the leaders of the US Armed Forces, including the American crew on the “USS Liberty,” who witnessed the “Israeli” planes and boats attacking and documented it.
The losses and the lives of the victims remained “Israel's” responsibility, and it had to apologize for them. The issue was then manipulated in America, and the mouths of those who wanted to disclose what they had seen were silenced. However, over time, witnesses, including war veterans, intelligence agents, writers, and journalists, came forward with their testimonies.
