【イスラエルが米軍艦攻撃35年目の真実はエジプトへの核攻撃誘発？照魔鏡の恐怖】

転送、転載、引用、訳出、大歓迎！
先週末、アメリカ本土から、
The USS Liberty: still covered up after 35 years
と題する記事が届いた。私は、見てすぐに内容を理解し、えっ、となった。事件に関する予備知識があったからだが、まだ続いていたかという唖然の想いと同時に、何故、今の今、なのかという感慨深い問題だからである。
題名は拙訳すると、アメリカの軍艦リバティ：35年後もいまだ隠蔽が続く、という意味である。リバティは、今から35年前の1967年に、イスラエルの空軍の爆撃を受け、多数の死傷者を出す甚大な被害が出たのだが、その真相は、いまだ明かされない。謎だらけの事件である。しかし、被害者とその遺族による追及続いていたのである。
本通信の後半では、その全文を英語の原文のまま紹介するが、その前に、今から3年と3ヶ月前、1998年9月30日発行の拙訳の該当部分と、そこでのわが注釈を引き、以後の状況についての簡単な新しい注釈を加えておく。

『偽イスラエル政治神話』
第3章：神話の政治的利用
第1節：アメリカのイスラエル=シオニスト・ロビー
［一三年間も極秘扱いされたアメリカ軍艦への攻撃］
一九六七年六月八日、イスラエルの空軍と海軍は、精巧な電波探知機を備えたアメリカの軍艦、“リバティ”を攻撃した。その目的は、ゴラン高原への侵略計画を察知させないためだった［訳注１］。
三八人の乗組員が死に、一七一人が負傷した。イスラエルの飛行機は、“リバティ”の上空を六時間に渡って飛び、爆撃は七〇分も続いた。イスラエル政府は、これを“間違い”だったと謝罪し、事件は一定期間の極秘扱いとなった。真相が初めて公式の場で復元されたのは、一三年後の一九八〇年である。当時の状況を調査するための委員会が、アイザック・キッド提督を議長として開かれた。そこで確認された目撃証人の一人、“リバティ”の甲板将校、エネスの証言によって、“間違い”だったという公式の説明は崩壊した。エネスは、攻撃が周到な計画の下に行われたものであり、殺人であることを立証した。トマス・Ｌ・ムーラー提督は、エネスの報告書がシオニストの画策によって封じ込まれたと証言し、この犯罪行為がなぜ見逃されたのかを説明した。《ジョンソン大統領は選挙に際してのユダヤ人の反応を恐れた。……》。提督は、さらに、こう付け加えた。
《アメリカ人は真相を知ったら怒り狂っただろう》[中略]
訳注１：巻末紹介の『ユダヤ人に対する秘密の戦争』によると、当時のアメリカ国防総省安全保障局（ＮＳＡ）はエジプトのナセル大統領に肩入れし、ゴラン高原向けに兵力を割こうとするイスラエル軍の動きを電波探知で分析してキプロス島のイギリス軍基地に送る過程で、実質的にアラブ軍にリークしていた。イスラエルは、その事実経過をＮＳＡに潜入していたモグラ情報によって逐一知っており。いざとなればアラブ荷担を暴露する構えで“リバティ”を攻撃したため、アメリカは沈黙せざるを得なかった。
以上で引用終わり。
上記のように、この時点での情報源、「当時の状況を調査するための委員会」が開かれたのは1980年である。つまり、それ以後も、差し引き22年間、ほとんどの事実について、隠蔽が続いていたことになる。
続いて現時点の新しい注釈であるが、原文の一部を先に引く。

BBC reports that the Liberty attack almost led to a U.S. nuclear strike on Egypt, which was briefly but mistakenly thought responsible for the attack.

抄訳すると、以下の重要な問題点が浮上してきたことになる。
アメリカの大手メディア、CBSが、90分番組を放送する。
イギリスの大手メディア、BBCが、この攻撃は、短期間でしかも間違って攻撃者と見なされたエジプトに対するアメリカの核攻撃につながり掛けた。
注意深く計画された攻撃はリバティの撃沈を意図していた。
ワシントンとテルアヴィヴの間の共謀
イスラエルは我々がアメリカ人をあることを知っていただけでなく、意図したように沈没しなかったので、深く失望し怒っていた。
以下、全文を紹介する。

''The USS Liberty: still covered up after 35 years''
Printed on Sunday, June 16, 2002 @ 22:09:17 EDT ( )
By James Ennes, Jr.
YellowTimes.org Guest Columnist (United States)
(YellowTimes.org) − June 8 marked 35 years since Israel attacked the USS Liberty without warning in international waters, killing 34 Americans and wounding 172 more.
The Israelis lied about it and persuaded our Congress to look the other way, and they are still lying about it today. But the Liberty will not go away.
Every attempt to hide this story seems to bring more attention.
This past year brought a 60-minute documentary produced by CBS News
Productions that was broadcast by The History Channel on Aug. 9 - much to the dismay and over the heated objections of the Israeli Embassy and various spokesmen for Israel who did all in their power to block it.
CAMERA, a leading pro-Israel propaganda arm, produced an extended and angry
critique of the film, accusing survivors and CBS News itself of producing a "propaganda-laden bogus history" that is deliberately distorted and
anti-Semitic.
In a personal attack directed on me, CAMERA unearthed a 1990 Internet
newsgroup in which I made what they consider a damning comment. In response to a claim that Israel was "surrounded by enemies," I replied that Israel would have no enemies if it didn't steal its neighbors' land and water and shoot its neighbors' children.
CAMERA cited that remark as evidence of bias and anti-Semitism;
I would defend it even today as a truism that might well be engraved in stone.
The History Channel's report was aired as scheduled and rebroadcast this past March 14. Although CAMERA urged The History Channel not to sell a video version, it was made available anyway. In fact, the video temporarily sold out and was described by some retailers as their best selling such product ever.
CAMERA, it seems, convinced only the choir.
Also this past year, author James Bamford released Body of Secrets, his
second book on the National Security Agency, with a chapter devoted to the Liberty.
Bamford received wide attention in book reviews and on the talk show circuit because his book revealed interviews with an airborne Navy radio intercept operator who listened to the attack from overhead while it was happening.
This man confirmed the crew's claims that the Israelis knew they were
attacking an American naval vessel.
Further confirmation came a few weeks later, when an Air Force intelligence analyst privately told us the same story. Those transcripts, we learned,
were widely distributed to intelligence processing centers around the
world..
The Israelis not only knew we were American, but were deeply frustrated and angry when the Liberty did not sink quickly, as they intended.
Another intelligence analyst told us that, a few days after the attack, a
"consensus report" concluding the attack was deliberate was briefly
circulated throughout the intelligence community. The report was then
cancelled and all copies were ordered collected and destroyed.
On June 10, London's BBC released its new documentary called "Dead in the Water." In it the BBC reports that the Liberty attack almost led to a U.S. nuclear strike on Egypt, which was briefly but mistakenly thought
responsible for the attack.
The film, which includes interviews with former U.S. Defense Secretary
Robert McNamara, former CIA chief Richard Helms and others, reveals secret collaboration between Washington and Tel Aviv during the Six-Day War.
A new book entitled Operation Cyanide, by prize-winning British
investigative reporter Peter Hounam, researcher for the BBC film, will be published to coincide with the release of the film. Hounam argues that
carefully laid plans were made to sink the Liberty, and that the U.S. was as much to blame as Israel for what happened.
Meanwhile, independent film-maker Tito Howard has produced in VHS format the documentary "Loss of Liberty," which includes interviews with several Liberty survivors and former U.S. Navy leaders.
Undeterred by all this, bankruptcy Judge A. Jay Cristol is about to release a commercial trade book version of his doctoral thesis which seeks to make the case that the attack really was just a tragic mistake.
The original thesis is a ponderous but seemingly scholarly account that may well convince readers uninformed about the attack.
Survivors see it as a flawed work, packed with evasions and misleading
statements. Cristol seems to accept at face value all the arguments that
support his case, while he nitpicks, dismisses and ignores entirely the
eyewitness reports of survivors and other supporting evidence.
Because he comes to the subject as a federal judge and a reserve naval
officer, however, he brings some apparent credibility that probably will get him a ride on the talk show circuits.
Michael Oren, a senior fellow at the Shalem Center in Jerusalem, recently released a book entitled, Six Days of War, with a chapter arguing that the Liberty attack was a tragic accident. An Internet search for "Michael Oren" will turn up the gist of his one-sided argument.
Even the venerable Navy Times came out April 4 with an article arguing
Cristol's case that the attack was a tragic accident. Its author received an avalanche of e-mail, mostly challenging his conclusions. This writer
submitted a rebuttal statement, which was published in April as a guest
column. Other rebuttals and counter-rebuttals are in the works.
Through it all, despite the passage of 35 years, controversy builds and
interest in the subject continues to grow. Liberty survivors welcome the
Cristols and Orens and misguided articles from Israel's defenders, because every published attack causes even more people to want to know what really happened to the USS Liberty. The continued controversy caused Assault on the Liberty to sell out months ago.
It is being reprinted, and should be available soon.
The award-winning Liberty Web site, http://www.ussliberty.org, sometimes
hosts more than 1,500 visitors a day as people search for information on the subject. Survivors are happy to oblige.
[ James Ennes retired from the Navy in 1978 as a lieutenant commander after 27 years of enlisted and commissioned service. He was a lieutenant on the bridge of the USS Liberty on the day of the attack.
His book on the subject, Assault on the Liberty (Random House, 1980), is a "Notable Naval Book" selection of the U.S. Naval Institute and was "editors choice" when reviewed in the Washington Post.]

さて、以上の話と、911を比較すると、照魔鏡の恐怖が背筋を襲う。イスラエルは、アラブ側と見せ掛けてアメリカを攻撃し、大量殺人を犯してでも、自国の敵をアメリカの攻撃対象に仕立てあげる作戦の実績を示していることになるのである。
今の今、この実際に起きた事件に関する最新情報が、電網空間に出現したのは、決して偶然ではないだろう。私と同じ照魔鏡の恐怖に襲われた英米人がいるに違いないのである。
