The Errand Boy [181]
The subsequent New York debate between Lane and Belli was jampacked
with the press. However, according to Lane, "Not one daily
newspaper in New York, and possibly in the nation, even mentioned that
the event had occurred." 498 This despite the fact that there were half a dozen
papers in New York at the time.
Lane commented: "The New York Times refers to itself as a newspaper
of record. That which is not found within its many pages ostensibly did not
happen. For this reason the Belli encounter in New York is known to some
as the debate that never occurred." 499
That a prominent attorney who represented Mickey Cohen, a key figure
in Meyer Lansky's international crime operations (and also an important cog
in Israel's global machinations), later came to represent Jack Ruby is clearly
significant.
A WELL-PLACED ERRAND BOY
Although Jack Ruby's actual role in the planning stages of the JFK
assassination conspiracy will probably never be fully known, there is no
question that, in the end, Ruby became a critical factor in the cover-up. His
murder of Lee Harvey Oswald silenced the one man who could no doubt fill
in at least some of the missing pieces of the puzzle. Jack Ruby was a wellplaced
errand boy, not only for Meyer Lansky and his global crime
syndicate, but also, it appears, for the covert arm of the CIA as well. Ruby
did his job and he did it well.
Although Ruby sought to speak freely, the Warren Commission refused
his entreaties to be allowed to come to Washington to tell his story. The
story of how Chief Justice Earl Warren refused to give Ruby the
opportunity to leave Dallas and tell his story is a famous part of JFK
assassination folklore. As a consequence, Ruby never did have the chance to
give his version of what really happened.
Jack Ruby was indeed "the smoking gun, the Rosetta stone, the trout in
the milk." He also may have even been—as even Lee Harvey Oswald
proclaimed himself—a "patsy." Just one player—albeit, in the end, an
important one—Ruby played a starring role in a drama orchestrated far
beyond his seamy Carousel Club in Dallas. Ruby was an errand boy in a
high-stakes operation—the assassination of an American president—that
was being undertaken by the joint alliance of the Meyer Lansky Crime
Syndicate, the CIA and Israel's Mossad.
A STRANGE STORY
As this book was being completed, a very strange story about Jack
Ruby came to this author's attention that bears repeating, if only for the
reason that it should be part of the permanent record, particularly considering
our contention that Israel did indeed have a hand in the assassination of John
F. Kennedy.
