israel tried pretending to be egypt when it attacked the USS Liberty killing US servicemen with the hope it would trigger the US to join their war against egypt
I wasn’t alive then – but none of the sources I’ve read mention anything other than Israel being fully responsible, and the only debate being whether the attack was deliberate or not
Yes, everything I saw regarding this incident, the one I was responding to, indicates that Israel engaged the Liberty; their account said they thought the American ship was Egyptian, they never claimed to be Egyptian firing on the US
