[274] Final Judgment 335
The case of Pearson and Anderson exemplifies, above all, the insidious
nature of Israel's influence over the American media and provides a clear-cut
case study of how the media has been manipulated to distort the truth about
the JFK assassination conspiracy.
Although the media in general had initially backed the Warren
Commission cover-up, public dissent about the conclusions—stirred on
largely by the work of pioneer commission critic Mark Lane and his friend,
New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison—forced Israel's friends in the
media to play their hand.
Stories that "The Mafia Killed JFK" and about "Castro" plots against
JFK suddenly began emerging. Pearson and Anderson were just two players
in the continuing cover-up. And Pearson himself (as we have seen) actually
had a hand in convincing Earl Warren that there had been a conspiracy
(plotted by Castro) that made it necessary, for the public good, to cover up
the truth. In fact, Pearson and his Israeli and CIA allies were seeking to keep
the real truth hidden.
MORE DISINFORMATION
One rather interesting JFK assassination story appeared in the form of a
book by former CIA contract agent Hugh McDonald, co-written with
prolific author Geoffrey Bocca. The McDonald-Bocca book, Appointment in
Dallas, received wide distribution.
The book featured an interview with an international hit man named
"Saul" who confessed to McDonald that he was the real murderer of
President Kennedy. The hit man said that he was hired by a private group,
and not by the CIA for whom he had done contract work in the past.
While many JFK assassination critics were highly skeptical about the
book, looking upon it as some form of disinformation (perhaps from the
CIA itself)—although not necessarily questioning McDonald's sincerity—it
would have been more instructive to consider Geoffrey Bocca's role in the
writing of the book. Bocca, in fact, was a propagandist for the CIA-backed
and Israeli-financed French Secret Army Organization (OAS) and was known to
have "translated some OAS tracts into English at a time when the organization
was thinking of appealing to the United Nations for help." 744 Bocca also
wrote a heroic account of the OAS entitled The Secret Army.
Needless to say, in light of the "French connection" to the JFK
assassination conspiracy, the appearance of an OAS propagandist as the coauthor
of a book which effectively "cleared" the CIA of involvement in the
crime is interesting, to say the least.
An odd footnote: several years after publishing Appointment in Dallas,
McDonald wrote another JFK assassination book. His co-author, who had
solid links to the CIA, Robin Moore, was best known, interestingly
enough, for his famous book, The French Connection—on the French
intelligence- and Lansky Syndicate-linked international heroin racket.
McDonald and Moore's book was entitled LBJ and the JFK Conspiracy.
This volume elaborated on the theme of McDonald's first book, saying that
