shots were fired; what kind of bullets were used; where the bullets hit; etc.
The list of such questions—and missing answers—goes on and on.
However, these are not the questions we need to resolve. What we need
to resolve is who really killed John F. Kennedy and why. To pursue that
question is to come across that most unpleasant answer: that the Israelis
were indeed involved in the JFK assassination conspiracy. That is
something that the pantywaists do not wish to acknowledge.
Have you made any major changes in the conclusions that you
reached in Final Judgment since the book was first published?
There were many typographical errors in earlier editions of the book.
But, more importantly, the minor errors of fact that appeared in previous
editions have been corrected and in my special "challenge to the readers" I
have outlined those errors for the record and point out that they have
nothing to do with the thesis of the book Other than those corrections, I
have not revised the original thesis as it was put forth in the first edition.
I have tightened up the book here and there but I have not deleted any
substantive material relative to the thesis itself. The book thus stands
essentially as it was first written but is now much stronger and far more
comprehensive than ever, covering areas related to the assassination and the
cover-up that were not discussed in the previous editions, particularly the
new findings that I've unearthed regarding longtime CIA operative Frank
Sturgis' little-known work for the Mossad—an explosive detail indeed.
Since the first edition was released, I've also come to the conclusion
that the so-called "Mafia" connection to the JFK assassination is more a
distraction than anything and in summarizing my findings I have cited that
reassessment for the benefit of the readers, although those who have read
even the first edition will find that, from the start, I had very carefully
delineated the likelihood that "Mafia" involvement was cursory at best.
You have been critical of Oliver Stone's film, JFK. Why? Hasn't
Stone done good work by exposing new facts about the JFK
assassination to a bigger audience than anyone has ever done?
Stone's defenders have pointed out that Stone had a very complicated
subject to deal with in the film and that he couldn't include everything and
that's absolutely true. I cannot disagree with that. Stone's defenders also
say: "Well, if he wanted to get out at least part of the story, Stone couldn't
very well delve into the Israeli connection—even if he wanted to—because
then he couldn't get any financing or distribution for the film." That's true.
However, the financial interests behind the production, distribution and
promotion of Oliver Stone's "alternative history" or "alternative theory" of
the JFK assassination are tied to both Israel and the Lansky Crime
Syndicate which itself had ties to both the Mossad and the CIA, even, most
especially, during the period of the CIA-Mob plots against Castro that all
