operating superior. It was during his days working with the American OSS
and Naval Intelligence—and the Lansky Crime Syndicate—that Stephenson
cemented his ties with the Jewish anti-Nazi underground.
According to intelligence historian Richard Deacon: "Stephenson
received a great deal of intelligence from Jewish scientists. This particular
operation, though seemingly far removed from the story of Palestine, in the
long run greatly helped Israeli Intelligence in the early days of the state of
Israel. Some of these scientists who had become friends with Stephenson
were encouraged to develop their talents in the cause of Allied intelligence
and they not only worked for Britain in World War II, but later assisted the
Israeli Secret Service." 544
What's more, it might be noted, Stephenson was a close personal
advisor to British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Here, almost
certainly, Stephenson had contact, during those early days, with a young
American who became a friend of Churchill—Clay Shaw, that American
Army officer detailed to the Office of Strategic Services.
THE PERMINDEX PLOT
Obviously, the connections (at an intimate level) between Tibor
Rosenbaum's Israeli Mossad banking operation, the Banque de Credit
International, and a wide-ranging array of figures tied closely to the Lansky
Organized Crime Syndicate and—even—to Clay Shaw, a member of the
Permindex board of directors, brings the conspiracy full circle. That BCI was
one of the primary shareholders of the Permindex entity clearly points
toward a Mossad role in the Permindex plot that ended the life of John F.
Kennedy. However, there is much, much more as we shall see.
LANSKY'S MIAMI-GENEVA COURIER
Research by former CIA contract agent Robert Morrow not only sheds
light on the connections between Lansky's Miami banks and Mossad officer
Tibor Rosenbaum's BCI, but also provides us evidence of a role by Meyer
Lansky in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
Shortly after Morrow had published his first book, Betrayal, in which
he described his own connections through the CIA with a number of the
figures involved in the JFK assassination conspiracy, he was contacted by a
young man with an incredible story he wanted to tell.
According to Morrow, "In our initial conversation, the young man
claimed his father, an ex-Air Force colonel, and others working for the CIA
had prior knowledge that President Kennedy was going to be assassinated in
Dallas on November 22, 1963 . . .
"The intelligence officer's son then made a wild accusation. He asserted
that his father had been tied into organized crime and had been a bagman for
at least one of the payoffs relating to the presidential assassination,
transporting a large sum of money to Haiti for payoff purposes during the
summer of 1963." 545
