[540] <strong>Final</strong> <strong>Judgment</strong> 636<br />

I do believe that there is strong evidence, which has appeared in more<br />

than one book on the JFK assassination, that there were people posing as<br />

Lee Harvey Oswald. However, it seems unlikely that those imposters knew<br />

that they were doing so for the purpose of furthering an aspect of the<br />

assassination conspiracy. The assassination conspiracy would be far too<br />

compartmentalized for every participant in some aspect of the conspiracy to<br />

know precisely how he was being manipulated or utilized in the framing of<br />

Oswald. Some of those imposters probably never laid their eyes on Oswald<br />

and probably didn't know who he was until after the real Oswald was<br />

picked up by the Dallas police.<br />

In <strong>Final</strong> <strong>Judgment</strong> I believe that I broke serious new ground by<br />

pointing out that Oswald's association with Guy Banister may indeed point<br />

to a possible role by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of B'nai B'rith (an arm<br />

of Israel's Mossad) in the "sheep-dipping" of Oswald as a "pro-Castro<br />

agitator." In light of Banister's close relationship with A. L. (Bee) Botnick<br />

of the New Orleans office of the ADL, we have to seriously ponder the<br />

question of whether or not Banister's use of Oswald had been arranged by<br />

the ADL which frequently contracted out "fact finding" work through<br />

private detective agencies such as that of Banister's in New Orleans.<br />

This is something that we should address. Although Banister's<br />

historical profile is one of a "right-wing anti-communist racist extremist"<br />

etc etc (a profile that the "liberal" JFK assassination researchers like to<br />

portray), the fact is that Banister worked closely with the New Orleans ADL<br />

office. By all accounts, A. L. Botnick was an "anti-communist extremist"<br />

with a known hostility toward the Black civil rights movement, the ADL's<br />

public posturing as a "civil rights" group notwithstanding.<br />

Although Botnick himself was not in the New Orleans ADL office in<br />

1963 (having transferred to its Atlanta office, later returning to New Orleans<br />

in 1963), Banister certainly retained his very valuable ties to the ADL.<br />

My own feeling about Oswald's "sheep-dipping" by Banister is that<br />

Banister's ADL associates were looking into left-wing groups such as the<br />

Fair Play for Cuba Committee and upon this basis they could have deployed<br />

Oswald into the pro-Castro movement, part of a deliberate attempt to<br />

portray Oswald as a Castroite. That is, Oswald thought that he was working<br />

for Banister when, in fact, he was acting as a "fact finder" for the ADL.<br />

Banister himself may have been told that the ADL wanted "facts" about<br />

the pro-Castro movement and that Oswald was the man for the job. Banister<br />

himself may not have even known that Oswald was being sheep-dipped for<br />

his ultimate role in the Kennedy assassination. So it may have come as a<br />

surprise to Banister himself when Oswald was named as the assassin.<br />

In retrospect I don't think that Banister himself was as central to the<br />

actual assassination conspiracy, in this regard, as many have believed over<br />

the years. Banister himself was, in that sense, a "useful idiot" in the employ<br />

of the ADL and the Mossad and its CIA allies. I would even go so far as to<br />

say that it seems likely that even Banister's friends at the ADL had no idea<br />

that Oswald was being slated for the role of patsy in the assassination.
