So I figure you could not find an example of friendly fire like that despite your assertion they happen all the time? Color me unsurprised.

>There was no attempt to blame Egypt

Are you an LLM? Of course there was not - the ship survived and there were too many witnesses of Israel doing this, it would be the uber chutzpa to still try to say it was Egypt.

Your demand for a highly specific friendly-fire incident seems a bit silly. Can you cite an example of the opposite - a tiny country intentionally attacking a ship of a superpower, then pretending it was accidental, giving a apology and millions of dollars of reparations?

And of course I'll demand the same arbitrary specificity - it needs to be a two-hour-long multi-domain assault. Also it needs to be a VC2-S-AP3 type ship whose name ends with "Liberty". If you don't have such examples, I suppose we can stop entertaining your conspiracy theory?

> there were too many witnesses of Israel doing this

Even if there were no eventual survivors, there would still be people throughout the fleet talking on the radio. They would have noticed and communicated about the movements of large ships from Israeli ports, among other very obvious signs of an Israeli operation. There would have been absolutely zero chance of the US not knowing who was behind it.

I demand an example of friendly fire incidents where attacker closely observes (they were able to aim at antennas for example) the friendly target for hours yet keeps attacking. All friendly fire incidents are opposite of this - people shooting at something they don't see or see for a brief time before the attack, there are no known cases of such an attack declared "friendly fire" other than the USS Liberty, so this is why I was very skeptical of your claim this happens all the time.
