| On Monday 12 December 2005 WING TV broadcast an interview with Rear Admiral Merlin Staring, a former Judge-Advocate-General of the US Navy, as part of their series "Israel's Deliberate Attack on the U.S.S. Liberty".
Reporter Lisa Guliani: Earlier this year a member of the House of Representatives, Rob Simmonds, made an inquiry to the Department of the Navy and he got a response in March from the Navy that said that the only invesigation into the USS Liberty Attack was conducted by the Navy Court of Inquiry and that runs contrary to a lot of reports we've heard over the years that there have been numerous inquiries. This is significant for the Liberty crew isn't it?
Adml Merlin Staring: It is most significant because there have been many statements by others of various stripes concerning the number of times that this has been investigated. It's all old hat and so on but it has never, none of those investigations that they purported to cite really were US government investigations. Many of them were not investigations at all. And we were very pleased to, finally to have the Department of the Navy responding to the Congress and saying the only US government investigation of the Liberty Attack was the US Navy Court of Inquiry in 1967.
There you have it. From the lips of a Rear Admiral and a Judge Advocate General in the US Navy. This means that none of the so-called 'investigations', cited ad nauseum on the Liberty threads, with the exception of the NCOI, qualify as a real investigation. There has only been ONE US government investigation into the Liberty attack, and that was the US Navy Court of Inquiry of 1967.
