I have removed the following from the article:
This might be interesting and relevant information, but it needs a better source than that blog (which also e.g. describes Ernst Zündel as a "political prisoner" suppressed by an Orwellian regime). See WP:RS. Regards, HaeB ( talk) 06:34, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
Reviving this discussion because it looks like there is some dispute about whether to keep this discussion in the article. I'm hesitant to consider a personal blog that only cites another personal blog as a reliable source, without other indicators of reliability. I can't find any better source for that claim. I think we should leave this claim out unless someone can support it with a better source. LlamaInASuit ( talk) 05:39, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
In 1967, in one article in the British paper, The Telegraph, it is unofficially reported by some that Morrison vehemently opposed the US response to, and findings of, the USS Liberty incident (when Israeli fighter planes and torpedo boats attacked an American ship, killing 34 and wounding 171 crew) which exonerated Israel of malice. Morrison did not rise in rank again after his outspoken criticism of Israeli intentions. [1]

I have reason to doubt that the picture of Jim Morrison with his father on the bridge of the USS Bon Homme Richard was taken in 1964. At that point his son would be 20 or 21 years old & was almost finished with his college education. Although I don't know what his relationship was like as of then with his father, he would claim his parents were dead some 3-4 years later in a bio-press release by The Doors' record company. Also, his haircut in the picture appears too extreme (short) for him at that point in his life. Finally, he looks too young in the picture for a 20 or 21 year old. Anybody else have additional input or a correction? Thanks... Dirty Dan the Man ( talk) 02:41, 19 July 2019 (UTC) Dirty Dan the Man ( talk) 03:53, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
