[558] Final Judgment 654
How does the thesis presented in Final Judgment conflict with the
theory presented in a number of works that suggest that it was some
sort of CIA-Mafia conspiracy that resulted in the JFK assassination?
I don't believe that the theory presented in Final Judgment essentially
conflicts with the basic thesis that it was a combination of CIA and Mafia
elements who were behind the president's murder. On the contrary, the
basic thesis there fits neatly into the scenario presented in Final Judgment.
My book, however, draws in the Israeli Connection that no one has ever
addressed before and explains that the so-called "French Connection" that
others have sought to show was somehow evidence of CIA or even "Mafia"
involvement points more distinctly to the Israeli Connection.
It's very clear to me that the other theorists don't frankly understand the
meaning of the French Connection—that it is the Israeli Connection. The
French Connection additionally, of course, relates directly to both the CIA
and the Mafia and even directly to the office of CIA contract operative Guy
Banister in New Orleans. So Final Judgment is quite unique in that it
explains how all of these seemingly diverse elements are tied together by
the Israeli Connection.
Anyone who has read any book suggesting that it was some sort of
CIA-Mafia conspiracy and accepts that thesis can now read Final Judgment
and realize that there is nothing in Final Judgment that conflicts with that
basic thesis. I would add that Final Judgment is also instructive in that it
presents a more accurate view of the reality of the true nature of the
Organized Crime Syndicate and the primary role that Meyer Lansky played
in the underworld. Final Judgment, in that sense, is the first book ever to
explore Lansky's connection to the crime of the century.
I firmly believe that Final Judgment presents an argument that no one
who believes in the basic "CIA-Mafia" conspiracy can reject out of hand.
Those who do reject it, I tend to suspect, are those who are afraid of the big
picture. The book shows that Israel had not only the means and the motive,
but also the opportunity—all of the components a good lawyer will need to
win a successful murder conviction. One reader, in fact, suggested that Final
Judgment read like nothing less than a legal indictment. And an
indictment it certainly is.
Could you give an overview of what you view as the basic structure
of the JFK assassination conspiracy? Doesn't the immense
international conspiracy portrayed in Final Judgment necessarily
involve such a large number of people that it would have been
impossible to keep such a conspiracy secret for all of these years?
Well, first of all the conspiracy is no longer a secret. I wrote about it in
Final Judgment. And I don't mean that answer facetiously. After all, thanks
to my French source I was able to pin down the secret roles of Israeli
Mossad figure Yitzhak Shamir and French SDECE officer Georges
deLannurien in the conspiracy. So somebody somewhere with some "inside"
