EP#393 | DSD | The USS Liberty Survivor's Truth with Moe Shafer

🎙️ EP#393 | DSD | The USS Liberty Survivor's Truth w/ Moe ShaferOn June 8th, 1967, the USS Liberty was attacked during the Six-Day War — an event shrouded in controversy, cover-ups, and conspiracy. In this explosive episode, Ray Doustdar sits down with Moe Shafer, one of the few remaining survivors of that fateful day. Moe served as a communications technician — a “spook” or spy — aboard the ship and was just 20 years old when a torpedo tore through the vessel, killing 25 of his crewmates in the same room. This is his harrowing, firsthand account.Moe dives deep into the details that history books left out: secret codes, moon-bounce communication, and the chilling moment when “Help is on the way” was the last message received. He recalls the morning’s false sense of security as Israeli planes circled overhead — before launching the shocking attack that would leave 34 dead and 174 wounded. From torpedo strikes to napalm burns, Moe’s account is one of trauma, survival, and ultimately — silence, as the U.S. government threatened the crew with prison if they ever spoke out.This is not just a war story — it’s a wake-up call. Moe reveals the cover-up, the near-nuclear fallout, and the decades-long emotional aftermath. With never-before-shared insights, this episode breaks open the hidden truths behind one of the most controversial military incidents in U.S. history. If you think you knew the USS Liberty story — think again.🔥 Top 7 Key Points🛳️ The USS Liberty Was a Spy Ship🎯 Israel’s Plan Was to Sink the Ship🚨 “Help Is on the Way” — But It Never Came💣 One Torpedo Nearly Caused Nuclear War🧠 Crew Was Threatened to Stay Silent📽️ New Docs Like ‘Sacrificing Liberty’ Expose It All💔 Survivors Waited Decades for Justice🔑 Keywords & ThemesUSS Liberty, Moe Shafer, Phil Tourney, Six-Day War, Israel, Egypt, torpedo attack, spy ship, NSA, Naval Security Group, cover-up, napalm, Geneva Convention, military secrecy, nuclear holocaust, Admiral Martin, James Scott, Sacrificing Liberty, Ray Doustdar, PTSD, Cold War, false flag, naval warfare, intelligence community, communications technician⏳ Chapters & Timestamps00:00 – Intro & Guest Welcome01:19 – Moe’s Background & Joining the Navy03:21 – Why He Chose the Navy (Following His Brother)05:25 – First Assignment in Germany Near Russia06:33 – Life on the USS Liberty Pre-Attack08:11 – Moon-Bounce Tech & Spy Work Explained13:50 – Being 20 Years Old in a Warzone16:51 – June 8th: The Attack Begins20:57 – Israeli Planes, Cameras & False Comfort26:02 – Torpedo Hits: 25 Dead, Moe Survives36:07 – Fire, Chaos & Attempted Surrender43:42 – Why the Ship Wasn’t Sunk49:30 – Admiral Martin’s Nuclear Orders54:01 – Malta, Body Recovery & Aftermath59:49 – Sworn to Secrecy for 15 Years1:02:17 – Moe’s Ongoing Fight for Truth1:04:20 – Final Reflections: God, Survival & Justice📢 Follow & Engage with DSD📌 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deepshallowdive📌 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deepshallowdive/📌 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@deepshallowdive📌 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@deepshallowdive📌 Twitter: https://twitter.com/deepshallowdive📌 Threads: https://threads.net/@deepshallowdive
