As we counsel young men concerning military service we must clarify for them our nation's role in Vietnam and challenge them with the alternative of conscientious objection. I am pleased to say that this is the path now being chosen by more than seventy students at my own alma mater, Morehouse College, and I recommend it to all who find the American course in Vietnam a dishonorable and unjust one. Moreover I would encourage all ministers of draft age to give up their ministerial exemptions and seek status as conscientious objectors.

The Soviets were aware of the Arab nation's [Egypt] poor intelligence capabilities against Israel and manipulated this weakness to their own advantage. By 10 May, 1967 President Nasser had received reports of Israeli troop concentrations along the Syrian border from four friendly intelligence services - Egyptian, Syrian, Lebanese and Soviet. The multitude of apparently independent sources corroborating each other's warnings served to strengthen Nasser's belief in their reliability. He was unaware, of course, that all reports had in fact been fed into the various systems by the Soviets.

"In 1967 the government of Israel attacked the USS Liberty, a ship of the US Navy, in international waters on the high seas, killing 34 men and wounding another 171. Israel claims that the attack was a case of mistaken identity. Survivors and senior US government officials including Secretary of State Dean Rusk say it was no accident. They claim that the attacking forces circled the ship at close range for many hours before attacking and continued to attack for at least 40 minutes after examining the ship by boat from less than 50 feet away."
