[550] Final Judgment 646
America, is Jewish that he is so eager to downplay Meyer Lansky's
influence on Organized Crime (which is what Scheim does in his book
blaming Marcello for the JFK assassination).
Over the years there has been a great concern in the Jewish community
about representations about Jewish influence (I would say predominance) in
Organized Crime, but one cannot seriously look at the role of Marcello in
the assassination without acknowledging that he was a protégé of Lansky. I
can understand Scheim's concerns about stirring up anti-Semitism by
revealing Lansky's preeminent role in Organized Crime, but if he is a
serious researcher as he purports to be he would be willing to face the facts
and not shade them as he does.
Was Jack Ruby a CIA contract operative or an FBI informant?
Just what role did he play in the planning of the assassination of JFK if
he played any role at all?
There's no doubt in my mind that Ruby did know Lee Harvey Oswald
prior to the assassination. If he didn't actually know him personally, he
knew of him. However, there are too many stories of likely personal
connections between the two to discount that the two knew one another and
were working together in some form of intrigue.
There are convincing stories that Ruby had some contacts with the CIA
through his activities in running guns to both Fidel Castro (prior to Castro's
seizure of power) and, later, to the anti-Castro exiles. Former CIA contract
operative Marita Lorenz, of course, has testified that Ruby showed up the
day before the assassination at the motel in Dallas where she and Mossadconnected
CIA man Frank Sturgis and a group of Cuban exiles were
staying. Her story is just one of many of many that tie Ruby in some form
or another not only to the CIA, but in events leading up to the assassination.
Ruby, of course, was not "Mafia." Ruby was Jewish. Let's lay it on the
line. The presence of Jack Ruby in the JFK assassination scenario does not
point to "The Mafia." In Final Judgment I discuss this in detail. Ruby was
instead a part of the Lansky/Jewish element in the crime syndicate. There
are, of course, many people who are afraid to get into this area because they
are afraid of being called "anti-Semitic."
Another thing to bear in mind: those such as David Scheim and Robert
Blakey who claim that "The Mafia Killed JFK," point to the fact that just
prior to the JFK assassination Ruby was in contact with many organized
crime-linked individuals and they say that this proves that Ruby was
trafficking with "the Mafia." The big problem here is that these so-called
"Mafia" figures that Ruby was in touch with were largely Jewish. So if I
may resort to ethnic terminology here: whatever Ruby was talking with
these people about, it was more likely about bagels than about pasta.
In Final Judgment I have firmly pinpointed a Ruby connection to Israel
and the Mossad through attorney Luis Kutner (Ruby's long-time friend
from Chicago) and I have also outlined other previously ignored Ruby
connections to arms smuggling to Israel and Ruby's involvement with so-
