USS Liberty Veterans Speak At A Library
"The attack was not an accident," said speaker Rocky Sturman, "It
was deliberate."
Ernie Gallo, who also said he was on the Liberty during the attack,
told the audience that both governments lied about the incident.
"It appears to us that Americans aboard the crew of the USS Liberty
were sacrificed to the Israelis," Gallo said.

Zionists Storm Out Of Library In Anger!!
Many Rockland residents walked out of a forum yesterday on the
mistaken bombing of a U.S. spy ship more than 40 years ago, accusing
the group holding the talk of fomenting anti-Semitism in a largely
Jewish community just days before the start of the Jewish new year.
More than 100 people attended the forum at the Suffern Free Library -
many leaving in anger before the talk ended.

Helga Pamm Is "Outraged"
The forum was ostensibly a discussion of the attack on the USS
Liberty, which was in waters off the coast of Israel during the
Six-Day War in 1967. But many attending the forum said it was a thinly
veiled attack on American Jews and the state of Israel.
"Their real agenda is, 'Why is Israel allowed to exist at all,' " said
Helga Pamm of Suffern as she left the meeting in disgust. "It's pure
anti-Semitism."

Many Angry Zionists
The Suffern forum was punctuated by angry outbursts including calls
that the organizers were liars and were portraying half-truths as
facts.

Ernie Gallo Questions Jewish Loyalty
"It appears to us that Americans aboard the crew of the USS Liberty
were sacrificed to the Israelis," Gallo said.
He then told the audience - most of whom said they were Jewish - that
if Jews put their allegiance to Israel first, they should leave
America.

Many In The Audience Were Holocaust Survivors
"So anyone who supports Israel should leave America?" shouted
Walter Greenberg of Airmont, a Holocaust survivor who said he was so
upset by the group that he left the room.
"They are really using code words to say that Jews are second-class
citizens," he said as he left.

SWAT Was At The Ready
The Suffern forum was punctuated by angry outbursts including
calls that the organizers were liars and were portraying
half-truths as facts. At times, as many as six Suffern police
officers were in the hallway outside.

The Audience Wasn't Allowed To Ask Questions
The protocol was the Liberty crewman spoke, and at the end
took
written questions, and that infuriated the audience. The irate
Zionists were going to the city council about the anti Semitic
event. "What's going to be next?" said Dan Kwilecki of
Montebello. "A meeting of the American Nazi Party?"

Future Speeches Will Be Met With Protestors
The JDL (Jewish Defense League) promises they won't take these so
called war heroes and their anti-semantic positions lying down.
