Video: 43 Years After Surviving Israeli Attack on USS Liberty, Joe Meadors attacked by Israel on GFF
Democracy Now news coverage:
Joe Meadors was on one of the Free Gaza boats seized early Monday morning. For Meadors, this marks the second time he has been aboard a ship attacked by Israeli forces in international waters. In 1967, Meadors was a signalman aboard the USS Liberty, a US Navy electronic intelligence-gathering ship that was attacked by Israeli planes and torpedo boats in 1967. Thirty-four Americans were killed and more than 170 were wounded in the attack.
