🎙️ EP#364 | GUEST | USS Liberty: The Hidden Truth with Phil Tourney

In one of the most powerful and harrowing interviews to date, Ray Doustdar sits down with Phil Tourney, a survivor of the 1967 USS Liberty attack, to uncover what really happened that fateful day—and why most Americans have never heard about it. Phil shares first-hand details of being targeted by Israeli forces during the Six-Day War, the 25-minute airstrike, and the follow-up torpedo assault that left 34 Americans dead and over 170 wounded—a moment he describes as a state-sanctioned betrayal.

Phil walks us through the chilling reality of the attack: friendly Israeli reconnaissance aircraft waving one day, followed by unmarked jets and torpedo boats launching a full assault the next. He explains the government cover-up that followed, including threats from high-ranking U.S. officials to stay silent. The goal? According to Tourney, it was a false flag operation meant to drag the U.S. into a wider war with Egypt. His firsthand account dismantles the "mistaken identity" narrative and reveals how Lyndon B. Johnson's White House played a direct role in the betrayal.

As the conversation unfolds, Ray and Phil also dive into broader geopolitical truths—from the Zionist influence on U.S. foreign policy to modern-day echoes of deception in today’s conflicts. They discuss Trump’s shift, media manipulation, and the importance of reclaiming truth through platforms like this. Whether you know the story of the USS Liberty or not, this is a raw, eye-opening conversation you’ll never forget.

🔥 Top 5 Key Points:

• The USS Liberty attack was not a mistake—it was a coordinated assault.

• 34 Americans were killed, 170+ wounded, and help was intentionally withheld.
