that was) had an interest in preventing Garrison from going any further and
latching onto Clay Shaw (which, of course, Garrison ultimately did).
King—the so-called "Denver oilman"—is yet another Israeli
Connection in the JFK assassination conspiracy, as hard as that fact might
be for those researchers who try to use King's interference in the Garrison
investigation as "proof" that, for example, King's friend Richard Nixon was
behind the JFK assassination. (Nixon truly is a convenient villain, isn't he?)
I was surprised myself to learn of King's Israeli connection, inasmuch
as I already knew about King. But, as I say, I didn't know about his ties to
Permindex until just a day before I was getting ready to send Final
Judgment to the printer.
This is just one example, but a significant one, of the un-ending process of
researching into the JFK assassination conspiracy. I suppose the bottom line is
that unless you have all of the information that you need in front of you (and
many JFK researchers for many years did not) you cannot make, shall we say,
a "final judgment."
Perhaps some day in the distant future there will indeed be a final
judgment, the title of my own book notwithstanding, if someone has before
them everything that I've written and everything else that will be written
and which can all be compiled together into the final judgment.
Is it possible there were so-called "rogue elements" in the Mossad that
participated in the JFK assassination and that they did so acting on
their own without official sanction?
This is not possible. Involvement by the Mossad in the JFK
assassination was ordered at the highest levels. Based upon what I've
learned about the structure of the Mossad, I firmly believe that Israeli Prime
Minister David Ben-Gurion was the individual who ordered Mossad
collaboration in the assassination conspiracy and that it was probably his
last act before resigning his post in disgust with JFK's stand toward Israel. I
believe that the Mossad's involvement was institutional in nature. Likewise, I
would add, with the CIA.
However, in the case of the involvement of the French SDECE's
Colonel Georges deLannurien—as I point out in Final Judgment—this was a
classic case of a "rogue" operator. This French conspirator was most
definitely not doing the bidding of French President Charles DeGaulle, but
he was assisting his Mossad ally, Yitzhak Shamir, and his CIA ally, James
Angleton, with whom deLannurien spent the day at CIA headquarters in
Langley on November 22, 1963. And you can bet the family silver that
deLannurien and Angleton were not together on that particular day for the
purpose of discussing the weather.
What did Mark Lane have to say about Final Judgment?
I did not indicate to Mark during the writing of Final Judgment that I
was writing the book. As I've pointed out, I actually told very few people
