520 The Continuing Cover-Up [423]<br />

Demjanjuk, the Ohio man who was cleared of the OSI' s charges by an<br />

Israeli court after nearly a decade of contentious international investigation<br />

that nearly saw Demjanjuk die at the end of the hangman's noose.<br />

Now, some may ask, why should Marwell's association with the OSI<br />

be so controversial, inasmuch as "Nazi-hunting" is generally considered to<br />

be a highly admirable avocation? There are several notable reasons:<br />

First of all, since there are still some (but not many) JFK assassination<br />

researchers who believe that the Soviet KGB or elements under its influence<br />

may have had a hand in orchestrating the JFK assassination, Marwell's<br />

previous OSI affiliation could prove embarrassing.<br />

After all, in the Demjanjuk case (as one example), the OSI relied<br />

heavily on KGB-forged documents (which falsely suggested Demjanjuk<br />

was a Nazi concentration camp guard) to deport Demjanjuk from the United<br />

States for trial in Israel (where, of course, he was eventually cleared). The<br />

fact is that the OSI had been seriously compromised by the KGB.<br />

Thus, if indeed the KGB did indeed play a part in the JFK murder, in<br />

any way, shape or form, Marwell's previous association with the OSI<br />

creates some concern about Marwell's willingness to bring out all of the<br />

sensitive information within the JFK files.<br />

Now the KGB matter, troubling though it may be, is eclipsed even more<br />

so by Marwell's inevitable dealings (as an OSI official) with Israel's Mossad.<br />

The Mossad has had a long-standing close relationship with the OSI, so<br />

there's no reason to doubt that the Mossad, like the KGB, has used its<br />

talents to compromise this American agency.<br />

(For the record: One scholar has pointed out the ties between the OSI<br />

and the Israelis. Wayne Madsen, writing in the International Journal of<br />

Intelligence and Counterintelligence, pointed out: "An unusual relationship<br />

exists between the Israeli Ministry of Justice's Investigation of Nazi Crimes<br />

Department and the U.S. Justice Department's Office of Justice Programs (OJP)—<br />

formerly the Office of Special Investigations . . . Probably no other organization<br />

like the Justice Department's OJP routinely scours the numerous<br />

computer files the federal government maintains on its citizens and passes<br />

confidential personal information to the Israelis." 1076 )<br />

Thus, can we really be certain that Marwell would be sure to release<br />

any hidden documents that—however unlikely—would implicate the<br />

Mossad in any aspect of the JFK assassination conspiracy, either directly or<br />

indirectly? For example, what if—just what if—there was a document<br />

buried in some JFK file under Marwell's jurisdiction that said flatly: "New<br />

Orleans businessman Clay Shaw is considered by some to be a Mossad<br />

asset." Will that document ever be released? I doubt it.<br />

But there's much more. There's a second reason why we might find<br />

Marwell's presence at the JFK documents review board troubling. This<br />

reason is particularly intriguing and should give even those JFK<br />

assassination researchers who reject my own theory of Mossad involvement<br />

reason to question Marwell's reliability.
