documents that—throughout his career—Harari was heavily involved in
Israeli intelligence operations in Mexico, South America and the Caribbean,
culminating in his later more widely-publicized role as the top advisor to
then-Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega who was ultimately topped in a
U.S. invasion. Was Harari, then, the "senior Mossad agent working in
South America" referenced by Pepper's U.S. military source? If not, it was
certainly someone Harari worked with.
That Jack Ruby—who was part of the Mossad-connected smuggling
operation uncovered by Pepper—had multiple Mossad and Israeli
connections is no surprise to those who had already read Final Judgment
(Later, in the question-and-answer section of Final Judgment, we will
explore further strange Israeli connections to the Martin Luther King affair—
details that have been deliberately otherwise suppressed.)
RUBY AND THE BRONFMAN FAMILY
Jack Ruby's covert activities were clearly well-established. But
independent researcher Brian Downing Quig came up with a Ruby
connection that had never before been revealed. Exploring the corrupt world
of Arizona mob bagman and political boss Kemper Marley, linked to the
infamous 1976 murder of investigative reporter Don Bolles, Quig learned
from Marley's longtime publicist Al Lizanetz that not only had the Lanskylinked
Bronfman bootlegging family been Marley's sponsors, but also that
Jack Ruby himself was also on the Bronfman family's payroll. 470
So when we consider the Bronfman family's intimate ties to the
Permindex entity (that, as we shall see in Chapter 15, clearly played a
central role in the JFK conspiracy) the Ruby connection to the Bronfman
family is interesting indeed and does point further to an Israeli connection.
RUBY AND THE CIA
All of the evidence of Ruby's gun-running, both to Castro himself and,
ultimately to anti-Castro Cuban exiles, has been explored relentlessly, and
in detail, by JFK assassination researchers. But his Lansky connection has
been repeatedly ignored. Former CIA contract agent Robert Morrow reports
that Ruby's pro-Castro gun-running was done in conjunction with former
Cuban president Carlos Prio Socarras. (Prio, also, had a long history of
close association with Meyer Lansky, as we saw in Chapter 7 and Chapter
11, having received lucrative Lansky pay-offs.)
According to Morrow: "With the blessing of the syndicate and the
guidance of the CIA, Prio made his deal with Castro, arranging for the
Mafia (which was also supporting Batista) to supply the necessary arms and
finances to make Castro's revolution successful—on the condition that Fidel
would reinstate him as president once Batista was overthrown. Castro
agreed, and Prio turned into a high-class gun-runner. One of his partners
would be Jack Ruby of Dallas, Texas, then known as Jack Rubinstein. This
is supported by a Miami FBI informant named Blaney Mack Johnson who
