Not lost - buried......
Having a major media outlet (even one on the second tier, like the Trib) run a prominent story on this sad affair is definitely progress, however, IMHO it is not justice
A small measure of Justice will come when the Israeli government publicly acknowledges, on the Record, that the Liberty was attacked deliberately and with the full knowledge of the ship's Nationality right from the beginning of the attack. This is already highly improbable
A greater measure of Justice will come when sizeable compensation is paid by that government to the families of each of the 206 casualties. Given the well-documented history of Israeli government policy since that nation's founding seventy years ago, this will happen right around the time that pigs fly
