[592] <strong>Final</strong> <strong>Judgment</strong> 690<br />

Constantly bedeviling me with "JFK-related questions" such as "Do<br />

you think that mainstream historians are correct when they declare that the<br />

Nazis slaughtered (plus or minus 5%) 6 million Jews?" he also made<br />

references to the purported "skinheads" whom, he said, were the people<br />

who found the thesis of <strong>Final</strong> <strong>Judgment</strong> believable. At one point he even<br />

asked "I wonder exactly how many black and Jewish friends Mr. Piper has<br />

in total" and actually expressed outrage that I refused to list them by name,<br />

as though I should expose them to his defamations. <strong>Final</strong>ly, though, I got so<br />

frustrated that I broke down and told Harris that one of my two godsons<br />

just happens to be an African-American child. He never responded to<br />

THAT.<br />

At one juncture, which just happened to be immediately after the<br />

Columbine shooting, Harris attempted to link me to that tragedy, suggesting<br />

the two disturbed young men had been inspired by evil "anti-Semites" like<br />

me, not knowing at that point that the one shooter happened to be Jewish.<br />

The constant and quite frenzied name-calling by Harris reached that<br />

point that even one Jewish news group participant, Dave Reitzes—who was<br />

no supporter of mine, by any means—even challenged Harris by pointing<br />

out that criticism of Israel is not anti-Semitism.<br />

Another news group participant, Keith Bruner, came to my defense in<br />

defiance of Harris saying, "Piper does not claim to have indisputable proof<br />

that the Mossad was involved, but he has drawn conclusions from certain<br />

facts that certainly paint a believable picture of involvement by the Mossad"<br />

and went on to say, "whether or not Piper is an [anti-Semite] he is pushing<br />

his book and his conclusions and should be challenged from that<br />

perspective," rather than by reckless name-calling.<br />

In another posting, Bruner said, "Read his book, then attack him about his<br />

conclusions and evidence he presents. Debate with him. Let's talk about the<br />

murder of JFK" (rather than the Holocaust). Bruner added: "Any<br />

information that will help lay the crime at the correct feet is good<br />

information, even if comes from the devil."<br />

The fact is that I sent Harris a complimentary copy of the book—<br />

despite all his attacks on me—and yet he still never once posted any item<br />

attempting to refute anything that I said in the book.<br />

'TINY LITTLE ISRAEL WOULDN'T DO THAT!'<br />

After I finally asked Harris directly: "Why do you believe that the<br />

theory that the Mossad could have been involved in the JFK assassination is<br />

`ludicrous' and 'outlandish' and 'nonsense,' etc?" he responded on April<br />

10, 1999 by saying:<br />

Even if Israel had wanted JFK dead, there was no<br />

need for them to take the risk of actively participating<br />

. . . if there was a slip-up and their participation was<br />

exposed, Israel would have been virtually doomed.<br />

They would have lost all credibility among civilized
