June 8, 1967 when Israel attacked the USS Liberty with aircraft and torpedo boats, killing 34 crew members and wounding 171. The attack in international waters followed over 8 hours of close surveillance. Israeli pilots circled the ship at low level 13 times on 8 different occasions before attacking. Radio operators in Spain, Lebanon, Germany and aboard the ship itself all heard the pilots reporting to their headquarters that this was an American ship. They attacked anyway. And when the ship failed to sink, the Israeli government concocted an elaborate story to cover the crime.
****Our tax dollars continue to go to Israel to support their military so they can continue to inprison and kill innocent people. Who knows when the next time they will decide to use American supplied weapons to attack innocent Americans in international waters or air space.****

GOLD VENDING MACHINES
A vending machine selling tiny gold bars was launched at the main railway station in Germany’s Frankfurt-am-Main. The ATM machine, the size of a phone-booth and shaped as a gold bar, was installed in the financial metropolis of the European Union.
The prices on gold bars available through the ATM change several times a day according to market fluctuations of gold prices. One gram of gold is currently priced at around 31 EUR. The ATM accepts credit cards and cash. Each gold bar comes with the certificate of authenticity.

Thanks Ted for posting on the USS Liberty. It is time to leave Isreal high and dry. We could use the money here. Isreal can find its own way. It is time for the spoiled child to grow up and get honest with the world.
