[270] <strong>Final</strong> <strong>Judgment</strong> 331<br />

PEARSON AND THE ADL<br />

According to Pearson's biographer, "Over the years the ADL had helped<br />

Pearson enormously. It had provided information he could not obtain<br />

elsewhere, backed his lecture tours, even assisted in the circulation of his<br />

weekly newsletter." 727<br />

Pearson's own former mother-in-law, Washington Times-Herald<br />

publisher Cissy Patterson, was less charitable in her description of Pearson.<br />

In a fiery editorial attack on Pearson she called him "both undercover agent<br />

and mouthpiece for the Anti-Defamation League." 728<br />

What's more, Pearson had a long-standing arrangement with the ADL in<br />

which the ADL paid the expenses of his legmen, such as the aforementioned<br />

John Henshaw, in return for Pearson floating ADL propaganda in his<br />

729<br />

columns.<br />

PEARSON'S MOSSAD CONNECTION<br />

Pearson, likewise, had acquainted himself over the years with a number<br />

of top-level intelligence operatives close to Israel, in particular, Canadianborn<br />

British intelligence wizard, Sir William Stephenson.<br />

Stephenson, as we saw in Chapter 7 and Chapter 15 was not only the<br />

guiding force behind the assembly of Israel's Mossad, but also the brains behind<br />

the Allied intelligence operations during World War II which utilized the<br />

resources of Meyer Lansky and his organized crime network. He was also<br />

a close associate and mentor of Louis M. Bloomfield, president of the<br />

Mossad-backed Permindex entity that was central to the JFK assassination<br />

conspiracy.<br />

According to Pearson's biographer, "Stephenson had become acquainted<br />

during the war with Pearson as a responsible publicist with the largest serious<br />

following in the United States." 730 In at least one instance, Pearson<br />

published a story that, according to his biographer, "was spoon-fed to him"<br />

731 by Stephenson.<br />

Pearson's other connections were equally interesting and point further<br />

toward his interest in covering for Israel and its allies in the JFK<br />

assassination conspiracy—both the CIA and the Meyer Lansky Organized<br />

Crime Syndicate.<br />

THE ISRAELI LOBBY AND PEARSON<br />

According to Pearson's associate, John Henshaw, Pearson was engaged<br />

in sharp business practices with his partner, attorney Max M. Kampelman,<br />

a key figure in the Israel lobby in Washington and a longtime top-level<br />

Anti-Defamation League (ADL) director.<br />

Kampelman, the personal attorney for then-Vice President Hubert<br />

Humphrey, and Pearson were trying to wrest control of television channel<br />

732<br />

14 away from a Black-owned station, WOOK, in Washington.
