became an icon for many obsessed with the JFK assassination, among them
one Dave Emory who insists to this day that "The Nazis Killed JFK."
Yet, there is something about Miss Brussell's background that is
significant in light of the Israeli role in the JFK assassination as dissected
here. Brussell was the daughter of Rabbi Edgar Magnin, the spiritual leader
of Hollywood's Jewish community—next to the New York Jewish
community the most significant force in the pro-Israel lobby in America.
For this reason alone Mrs. Brussell would not be inclined to follow
Permindex to its Israeli antecedents.
Mrs. Brussell and her acolyte, Dave Emory, contended that high-ranking
former Nazis such as General Reinhard Gehlen who were brought under the
wing of American intelligence following World War II were ultimately
responsible for the Kennedy assassination—through Permindex.
However, the fact is that Israeli intelligence was working closely with
the Gehlen organization in the post-World War II period. John Loftus and
Mark Aarons have written of how Israeli operatives—although they found
the new relationship distasteful—did indeed work with reputed former Nazi
war criminals in Gehlen's operation.
What's more, the Israelis had completely infiltrated the Gehlen
organization. According to Loftus and Aarons: "They knew exactly what
General Gehlen was doing . . . After Israel was born, sections of the Mossad
arrived inside Gehlen's base to receive special training . . . Even he had no
idea how many of his staff also were reporting to Tel Aviv . . . Whatever
Gehlen saw, the Israelis saw." 584
So if indeed (as some say) it was a "Nazi" plot that killed JFK, it seems
highly unlikely that the plot somehow got by the intrepid Israelis. But, as
we know now, it was not a Nazi plot—the fantasies of Dave Emory and
Mae Brussell notwithstanding. Permindex was an Israeli front—not a Nazi
front.
It is probably worth noting, for the record, that the first nationwide
publicity that Mrs. Brussell's theory that "the Nazis Killed JFK" received
was when it appeared in the pages of the short-lived magazine, The Rebel,
published by highly controversial pornographer Larry Flynt. 585
Although Flynt had indeed funded legitimate independent research into
the JFK assassination some time earlier (which some suggest may have led
to the later attempt on Flynt's life), the Brussell article was not part of that
earlier effort that came out of the Flynt publishing empire.
It is hard to say precisely what motivates Flynt, a complex individual
indeed, but we do know one thing: according to George magazine, published
by no less than John F. Kennedy, Jr., Flynt, at least recently, has emerged
as a substantial contributor to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of B'nai
B'rith. 586 So in light of what we do know about the ADL and its multiple
links to those intimately involved in the JFK assassination conspiracy, this
is interesting indeed.
Despite all of Mae Brussell's ruminations, there is ironically, a genuine
and bizarre "Nazi" connection to Permindex that is either misunderstood or
has been deliberately obscured but which does further toward our
