Photo Section 384 Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion and President John F. Kennedy (together at left) became embroiled in a bitter conflict over Israel’s determination to assemble a nuclear arse- nal. The conflict led to Ben-Gurion’s abrupt resignation in June of 1963 and set the stage for a role by Israel’s intelligence agency in JFK’s assassination. The same forces linked to the web of intrigue against JFK were also involved in Israeli-sponsored plots against French Pres- ident Charles DeGaulle (at right with Ben-Gurion) who infuriated Israel by giving indepen- dence to Arab Algeria and by reversing French support for Israel’s nuclear program. The JFK assassination plot (and the plots against DeGaulle) were orchestrated and funded through an international corporate body known as Permindex, a shell corporation which func- tioned as an asset of Israel’s intelligence agency, the Mossad. Shown above is the founding meeting of Permindex. The driving force behind Permindex was the Geneva-based Banque De Credit International (BCI), founded by Rabbi Tibor Rosenbaum (inset, right), a financier and arms procurement officer for the Mossad. Rosenbaum’s bank also served as the chief money laundry for the crime syndicate of international mob boss, Meyer Lansky (inset, left), whose criminal empire (of which the so-called “Mafia” was a part) came under fire when the Kennedy administration launched a major crackdown on organized crime. 385 Photo Section When New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison (left) investigated and charged interna- tional trade executive and longtime CIA asset Clay Shaw (center) with involvement in the JFK assassination conspiracy, Garrison discovered that Shaw served on the board of the Mossad’s Permindex corporation. Garrison apparently ultimately concluded that the Mossad was linked to the assassination but expressed his suspicions only in an unpublished novel. The chairman of Permindex was Montreal attorney Louis M. Bloomfield (right), a major figure in the Israeli lobby of Canada and a longtime henchman of liquor baron Sam Bronfman who wasbotha major patronofIsrael and a top-level figure inthe LanskyCrimeSyndicate. In league with Clay Shaw of Per- mindex, New Orleans-based CIA contract agents Guy Banister (left) and David Ferrie (right) worked with the operatives of the French Secret Army Organization (OAS) in plots against Charles DeGaulle that were being financed through the Mossad’s Permindex front. Shaw, Banister and Ferrie also were responsible for the “sheep dipping” operation that portrayed accused JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald as a “pro-Castro” agitator. Although many point to Bannister’s connections to “right wing” agitator Kent Courtney as evidence of a “right wing” slant among Banister and his associates, what these same researchers fail to note is Courtney’s own enthusiastic support for Israel. Shown (right) is a 1970 article by Courtney hailing Israel as a roadblock in the path of Soviet expansionism. Courtney’s view of Israel exactly reflected that of James Angleton, the CIA’s Mossad liaison. Photo Section 386 James Jesus Angleton (inset), longtime CIA director for counterintelligence, was the key high-level CIA player in the JFK assassination conspiracy and later the driving force behind the CIA’s role in the “Watergating” of Richard Nixon. A devotee of Israel, Angleton and his Mossad liaison desk at the CIA were central to the CIA’s deep-cover alliances with the Lan- sky Crime Syndicate, a fact many JFK researchers strive to ignore and/or forget. This monu- ment in Israel (above) is one of several honoring Angleton for his services to Israel. Shown at right is the monument’s plaque. The photograph of the monument was taken exclusively for this book and is the only known photograph of this monument ever to be published. 387 Photo Section A former French intelligence officer told Final Judgment author Michael Collins Piper that Yitzhak Shamir (top left)—the Mossad’s assassinations chief in 1963—contracted out at least one of the assassins who participated in the hit on JFK through Col. Georges deLannurien (center), a high-placed Mossad ally in French intelligence. It is no coincidence that on the day of the JFK assassination, deLannurien was huddled at CIA headquarters in Washington with the Mossad’shigh-rankingallyatthe CIA,JamesJ. Angleton.Infact,Israeliintrigue againstJFK began shortly after his election, when mob boss Meyer Lansky’s Los Angeles henchman Mickey Cohen (right) and Israeli diplomat Menachem Begin (bottom right) manipulated actress Marilyn Monroe (bottom center) in a deep-cover sexual blackmail and spying operation aimed at JFK. Media disinformation promotes the myth the Kennedy family was involved in Monroe’s death, when, in fact, evidence suggests Cohen was responsible. Largely ignored by JFK researchers, Cohen was a friend and role model of Dallas mob figure Jack Ruby (bottom left) whose links to Lansky and to Israeli arms smuggling have been covered up by those who say that “The Mafia Killed JFK.” Photo Section 388 In collaboration with the CIA station in Mexico City headed by David Atlee Phillips (left), James Angleton’s Israeli desk at the CIA concocted phony “evidence” to convince Chief Jus- tice Earl Warren that Lee Harvey Oswald had conspired with the Soviets to assassinate JFK. The Warren Report was thus designed to cover up what Warren (perhaps) believed to be the truth and to prevent war between the USA and the USSR. Many people believe Phillips— who later went to work for a company involved in smuggling arms for the Mossad—was the CIA operative (who used the name “Maurice Bishop”) seen with Oswald in Texas shortly before the assassination. This “artist’s impression” (center) of “Maurice Bishop” was issued by the House Assassinations Committee. However, Michael Collins Piper, author of Final Judgment, speculatesthat “Maurice Bishop” mayhave been a CIA code name also used by yet another Texas-based CIAfigure involved in Cubanaffairsin1963—George Bush(right). In 1986 Israeli nuclear technician Mor- dechai Vanunu (left) blew the whistle on Israel and revealed to the world that Israel did indeed have nuclear weapons. Vanunu was sentenced to 18 years in prison for his act of conscience. Just before the fourth edition of Final Judgment went to press, an American couple—peace activists Nicho- las and Mary Eoloff of St. Paul, Minnesota who adopted Vanunu—released an Oct- ober 12, 1997 letter to them from their adopted son in which Vanunu alleged there was a link between the JFK assassination and the 1967 Six Day War that Israel launched against its Arab neighbors. Vanunu’s revelations—particularly in light of his background in Israel’s nuclear program— obviously point toward confirmation of the allegations that had already been made in the first edition of Final Judgment released in 1994. Although Vanunu’s allegations about the JFK connection have been kept under wraps, the one press report that did mention it predictably said that it was evidence of Vanunu’s “paranoia.” 389 Photo Section Former CIA officer Victor Marchetti (left) alleged in an article in The Spotlight in 1978 that the CIA planned to frame CIA operative E. Howard Hunt (center) for involvement in JFK’s murder. Evidence indicates Israel’s CIA ally, James Angleton, was behind the scheme to frame Hunt. Angleton’s confidant, journalist Joe Trento (right), believes Angleton sent Hunt to Dallas in November of 1963 and then—15 years later—leaked a CIA memo placing Hunt in Dallas at the time of the assassination. Hunt was working with many of those involved in the assassination and knows far more than he will admit. Hunt seems to have been part of what some thought was a “dummy” assassination attempt on JFK designed to implicate agents of Castro, but which was co-opted and turned into “the real thing.” It is likely Lee Oswald was manipulated in this fashion, led to believe he was involved in a scheme to blame Castro for an attempt on JFK’s life, when, in fact, he was being set up as “the patsy.” Although CIA-connected British writer Christopher Andrew asserts the famous letter to “Dear Mr. Hunt” (left)—purportedly written by Lee Oswald two weeks before the JFK assas- sination—was a KGB forgery, this letter was more likely part of the “limited hangout” cam- paign by James Angleton’s Mossad desk at the CIA to frame Hunt and confuse JFK research further. The letter came to light at precisely the time in 1975 that Mike Canfield and Alan Weberman were releasing Coup d’etat in America (right) which promoted the myth Hunt was one of the “tramps” picked up in Dallas after the assassination. Not only has Weberman been closely associated with Mordechai Levy, a known operative for the Mossad-linked Anti- Defamation League, but Weberman has revealed that the Capitol Hill power broker who played an early instrumental role facilitating Weberman’s effort to spread the “Hunt as tramp” theory was Richard Perle (inset, right), a longtime Mossad asset who is now a key player in the “neo-conservative”pro-Israelnetwork.Inaddition, the Nigerianwho publishedWeberman’s book was also publisher of Israeli leader David Ben-Gurion’s writings. Final Judgment author Michael Collins Piper speculates Weberman’s book was “black propaganda” out of Angleton’s Israeli desk at the CIA. Interestingly, it was Weberman who revealed that New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison was quietly suggesting Mossad involvement in the JFK assassination—a point even many Garrison admirers are hesitant to acknowledge. Photo Section 390 After E. Howard Hunt (inexplicably) sued The Spotlight for libel for exposing the CIA’s plot to frame him in the JFK assassination, famed JFK investigator, attorney Mark Lane (left), served as The Spotlight’s defense counsel and scuttled Hunt’s case.
