[198] Final Judgment 259
This young man told Morrow that his father was associated with a mob
courier. The courier in question was Mickey Weiner. Pursuing the Weiner
lead further, Morrow learned from another source that tape recordings had
been uncovered in which Weiner had participated in conversations relating to
the circumstances of the Kennedy assassination.
According to Morrow's source, Albert Moakler, "The tapes were
indicative that there was a conversation going on which was more than idle
gossip. It definitely concerned Jersey and Miami . . . the areas, people in the
areas. Something concerned with the assassination." 546
(Miami, of course, was Meyer Lansky's base of operations. New
Jersey, as we saw in Chapter 7, was the base of Lansky's Mafia associate,
mobster Jerry Catena who was responsible for distribution of "skim" money
from Lansky's Las Vegas gambling operations to Lansky's organized crime
associates in the northern states.)
Morrow also determined that Weiner made regular runs between
Switzerland and Miami where he would visit the Bank of Miami Beach. 547
Weiner, obviously, was one of Lansky's couriers between his banking
operations in Miami and those of the Israeli Mossad's Tibor Rosenbaum and
the Banque de Credit International in Switzerland.
Thus, it's clear that Lansky's courier definitely had "inside" information
about the JFK assassination. We may even go so far as to speculate that it
was Lansky's courier who was providing funds from Permindex to the
assassination conspirators stateside.
ANOTHER ISRAEL CONNECTION
A "high level financial backer" of the Permindex operation, according to
Paesa Sera, was one Dr. David Biegun, national secretary of the National
Committee for Labor Israel, Inc., based in New York. This committee was
the American affiliate of the Israeli Histadrut for which Permindex board
chairman Louis M. Bloomfield was a chief fundraiser. 548 Flammonde,
despite his excellent research, failed to carry this connection further. And
note also that ex-CIA man Philip Agee has said that the Committee for
Labor Israel is often used as a CIA cover. 549
Biegun's role in Permindex was explicitly important—even central to
the operation of Permindex.
In fact, it was Biegun who oversaw the liquidation of CMC/Permindex
after the company was expelled from Switzerland and Italy in 1962,
subsequently relocating the operation to Johannesburg, South Africa. 550
(South Africa, it might be noted, has long been engaged in intimate
international intrigues in conjunction with Israel.)
Paesa Sera speculated that [CMC/Permindex] "was a creature of the CIA .
. . set up as a cover for the transfer of CIA . . . funds in Italy for illegal
political-espionage activities." 551 The Italian journal, however, seems to
have missed the multiple Israeli connections that we have explored in these
pages.
