Nomenclature of an Assassination Cabal by William Torbitt About the Author (written in 1970) the authoris alawyerin te soushwestem part ‘Torte Unie Stas wit weny yeas al experience. For two years he served as a prosecuting antomey in criminal cases during 1849, 1950 and partof 1951. He his engaged in both civil and criminal practices and is Hicensed in al sute and federal cours in his area and the ‘Cour of Tax Appeals. “The author is atypically conservative and sic- ‘cessful atomey belonging to the American Trial Lawyers Association, all of his aea barassocia- tioas, Kiwanis and local civie clubs. He is a family man and is highly respected in the courts before which fie practices. He is not critical of the Warren Commission or of any other national agency in connection withthe assassination. ‘The author hes participated in eases in the southwest where professional Mexican assas- sins have been used to commit politcal murder He has also participated in the tral of cases in the southwest involving gua-running activities through Mexico to Cube, both before Casto was successful and after Casto succeeded and be- came the subject of overthrow by gunrunners from the southwest. Close relatives of the gambling syndicate mem- bers have used the legal services of Torbit in complicated cases involving wacing of financial dealings of organized crime in Texas and their foreign connecting links More imporcant, William Torbitt has been a member of the song supporters of Lyndon Johnson since 1948. He supported Joba Connal- ly in the gubernatorial race of 1962 and exrlier was closely associated in the succescful rave of Lloyd Bentsca in the Texas Valley adjacent to the Mexican border. Torbitr was alsoa key politi- cal backer of Texas Governor, Allen Shivers ‘The author remained close to the conservative Connally-Totinson politcal organization and ‘was personally acquainted with most of the people he writes about until he leftthem in 1963, “Torbitt remains active in Texas Valley-Mexico border politics, butat subdued pace. During his tem as prosocutor, he was deeply involved in the investigations and prosecutions of the gam- bling syndicate and Mafia operations in Texas, Except for five years forcign service in the U.S. ‘Navy during World War Il, Torbittis a lifelong resident of Texas, He holds his law degree from the University of Texas at Austin, ‘The author says, “The fascist cabal who assas- sinated John Kennedy planned to lay the blame (on honest right-wing conservatives if their first ploy, to lay the blame on Oswald and the Com- saunists was not bought.” The author set out in this work simply to analyze, bring together and present his personal knowledge and the evidence which has been ‘gathered by the Warren Commission, Fim Gar- ison and all other investigative agencies con- nected with the case. Asis the ofic of alawye, hhe makes legal deductions from the evidence ‘gathered but consistcntly refuses to specalat= on the evidence even when some speculation is warranted. He says that speculation isa close kin to rumor and, consequently, he resorts only to those legal deductions which cours allow alaw- ‘yer to make from the court-approved and docu- ‘mented evidence. ‘This work is an enlargement of a working paper fumished to Tarbitt by two agents — one with the Customs Department and the other with thefi “The Torbitt Document «2 ee ee Narcotics Bureau. For obvious reasons, their identities must be protected, butthe author gives highest credit to the investigative work of the ‘wo well-informed officers. ‘The author especially credits the working paper Of the two agents with revealing the heretofore highly secret Defense Industrial Security Com- mand and its intelligence assignmeats on bebalf of the munitions and aerospace manufacturers, ‘The fascistic totalitarian secret police agency is even stronger and more devious in 1970 and threatens our democracy, he says.

Enough evidence has now been uncovered by , the Werren Commission, other investigative agencies here and in Europe, and Jim Garzisoa to reveal an almost total working knowledge of how the assassination was carted out and by whom, ‘The killing of President Kennedy was planned id supervised by Division Five of the Federal jureau of Investigation, a elatively small de- [pactment within the FBI whose usual duties lespionage and counter-espionage activites. "haat teens Fee acted dually with the Defense Intelligence Agency which was acting con behalf of the Joint Chicts of Staff in the Pentagon. Directly under the two-pronged lead- ership of Division Five and the DIA was the control group, their highly secret police agency: the Defense Industrial Security Command (De- fense Industrial Security Command). ‘The Defense Industrial Security Command has always been kept secret because it acs, in addi- tion 0 its two official control organizations, on behalf of NASA, the Atomic Energy Commis- sion, U.S. Information Agency and the arms, equipment, ammunition, munitions and related miscellaneous supply manufacturing corpora- tions, contacting with NASA, the AEC, USIA, and the Pentagon. Onc can readily observe the Defense Industrial Seoutity Command is not compatible with an ‘pen democracy and the U.S. Constitution. Con- sequently, the top secret arms manufacturers" police agency has been kept from the knowledge ‘of even most US. officials and congressmen. The Defense Industrial Security Command (efease Industrial Security Command) had its beginnings when J. Edgar Hoover in the carly 1930's organized the police force of the fled- sling Tennessee Valley Authority at the request of David Lillienthal. The police force covered the entire Tennessee Valley Authority from Knoxville, Tennessee through Huntsville and Florence, Alabama and into Kentucky and back trough the eastem portion of Tennessee into southern Kentucky. This was one of the first federal agencies with a separate federal police fowe. This force grew and Lilfienthal took it forward to cover the Atomic Energy Commis- Son, thus tying it into the amy intelligence service. LM. Bloomfield, a Montreal, Canada lawyer ‘bearing the reputation asasex deviate, the direct supervisor ofall contractual agents with. agar Hoover's Division Five, was the top coordinator forthe network planning the execution. A Swiss corporation, Permindex, was used to head five front organizations responsible for furnishing Personnel and supervisors to camy out assigned duties. ‘The five groups under Permindex and their supervisors were: 1. The Czarist Russian, Eastem European and Middle East exile organization called Solidar-‘The Torbitt Document «3 ists, headed by Ferenc Nagy, ex-Hungarian pre- micr and Joba (or Jean)De Menil, Russian exile from Houston, Texas — a close friend and sup- ore of Lyndon Johnson for over 30 year. 2. Asection of the American Council of Chris- tian Churches headed by H.L. Hunt of Dallas, Texas. 3. ACuban exile group called Free Cuba Com- mittee headed by Carlos Prio Socearas, ex-Cu- ban president. 4. An organization of the United States, Carib- bean and Havana, Cuba gamblers called The Syndicate headed by Clifford Jones, ex-liew- tenant governor of Nevada and National Demo- cratic Committeeman and Bobby Baker of Washington, D.C. This group worked ciosely with a Mafia family headed by Joc Bonanno. 5. The Security Division ofthe National Aero- nautics and Space Administration (NASA) headed by Wemer Von Braun, head of the Ger- man Nazis rocket program from 1932 through 1943, Headquarters for this group was the De- fense Industrial Security Command at Muscle Shoals Redstone Arsenal in Alabama and on East Broad Street in Columbus, Ohio. ‘The Defense Industrial Security Command is the police and espionage agency for the U.S. saunitions makers. Defense Industrial Security Command was organized by J. Edgar Hoover and William Sullivan, his chief assistant, is in direct command. We shall later examine the involvement of a lange number of the Defease Industrial Security Command agents including Clay Shaw, Guy Bannister, David Fertie, Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby and others, with Permindex’s Louis Mortimer Bloomfield of Montreal, Canads in charge. As it must be, all of the preceding facts are established and documented by overwhelming evidence beyond a reasonable doubt onthe fol- lowing pages.

Personnel of the Defense Intelligence Agency were subject to assignment with the Defense Industrial Security Command. The Director of the FBI was in charge of NASA's Security Divison and Defense Indus- ‘wial Security Command in his postion as head of counter espionage sctvities in the United Suaes. His agents investigated every employee ‘ofthe space agency as well asthe employees of the pertinent contractors doing business with NASA and also, prospective employees of every ‘ans and munitions manufacturer, ° ‘The Defense Intelligence Ageticy (DIA) is headed by Lt.

Cacroll, a former assist director of the FBI, Caroll worked closely with Sullivan, Hoover and LM, Bloom- field in directing activities of the munitions male es’ police agency, Defense Industial Security Command.

The field office for che Command was locatedatthe old Redstone Arsenal in Fiuntsville and Muscle Shoals, Alabama. ‘Von Braun had been decorated more than any ‘other Nazis during World War IL Hoover had worked directly with Yon Braun in counection with NASA's security since his arrival in the United Stes in December, 1945. Lyndion Johnson, as vice presideat, vas Chair- ‘man of NASA and Johnson, Von Brana, Bobby Baker and Fred Black had worked diligently 10 ‘obuain the $9 billion Apollo contract for North ‘American Aviation in 1961. NASA awarded this ‘contract North American despite the fact that it went against the recommendation of is own source evaluation board (4ppoinment on the Moon, 377 et seq, Richard S. Lewis, Viking Press, 1969; New Orleans District Anomey Re- cords). Each of the NASA security personel who ‘were assigned daties in connection withthe as- sassination were employecs or conmactees for Division Five of the FBI and many were con- nected with the other four groups. Ie mast be bore in mind that this was a relatively small ‘E70up within all ofthese agencies and it was nat official andi was not an American operaion but“The Torbitt Document = 4 was simply the independent action taken by these men, some of whom happened to hold official positions. J. Edgar Hoover was named first Director of the FBI in 1924 and he immediately organized the anti-communist Division Five for espionage and counterespionage wok which President Roosevelt made official in 1936. Actually, Div- ision Five was in existence as General Intel- ligence Division (GID) of the Justice Depart- ‘ment since 1919. Hoover, an assistant Attomey General and head of GID, had used the Czarist Russians in tracing the Bolsheviks during the Red scares and Palmer raids ofthat period. (The FBI Nobody Knows, Fred Cook). 1924 was the year the Communists finally took ‘complete control of Russia after five yeats of resistance by the imperial Czarists, From 1918 10 1923, the leaders of the Czarists were leaving Russia with vast fortunes by the tens of thou- sands. One of these escaping Russians was John De Menil, presently of Houston, Texas, who fled toFrance, married into the Schlumberger family, moved to Caracas, Venezuela, and then to Hous- ton, Texas, before World War Il. He is presen the’ Chairman of the Board of Schlumberger Corporation, a worldwide oil well service com- pany. ‘The forerunners of the Solidarists have been described by James Wechsler of the New York Post and other writers, before and during World War I, 2s the Ukrainian fascists. The Solidarists expanded this group to include all EastEuropean exiles, including those of various religious denominations. (Of course, these Russian exiles in all counties of the world were violently anti-communist and considered themselves as a government in exile. ‘They looked on the new Russian government as ‘an occupying foree in their beloved Mother Rus- sia and they formed the secret Solidarist group as the intelligence arm of their goverment in exile with headquarters in Munich, Germany. (XK, 266; Encyclopedia of Organizations, Tol- stoy Foundation, Gale). One has only to glance at Czarist Russian history t0 learn these people are the most proficient dealers in assassination the world has ever known. Geotge De Mohrenschildt, 2 Russian emigré who refused to join the Solidarists and who was {amiliar with the workings of espionage groups and had worked with them in the past, testified that J Edgar Hoover, using Division Five of the FBI, was the planner of the assassination of President Kennedy. Through De Mohren- schildt’stesimony before the Commission and hhis documentation, the connection ofthe espion- age section ofthe FBI with the assassination had been established (IX, 47 et seg, 77 et sea, Rus- sian exiles testimony to Commission). ‘The public records of the corporate records departments. of Italy and Switzerland; Who's Who in the South and Southwest, 1963 and 1964; Invisible Government and Espionage Establish- ment by Wise and Ross; Buddy Floyd murder files, Alice, Texas; Warren Commission 26 vol- ~umes, the Grand Jury records of New Orleans Parish, New Orleans, Louisiana; and the District ‘Attomey Recoris of New Orleans Parish, New Orteans, Louisiana, all further substantiate, bol- ster and corroborate the testimony of De Moh- renschildt conceming the FBI's Division Five's involvement. Many examiners of the case have concluded ‘that George De Mohrenschildt was a pat of the conspiracy because of his close association with Oswald during the fall of 1962, winter and carly springof 1963, buta close reading ofthe Russian cexile’s testimony before the Warren Commis- sion shows that De Mobrenschildt was being used by the Solidarists the same as Oswald was being used and was to have been tied in with ‘Oswald in connection with the assassination. However, De Mobrenschild, a highly polished professional geologist, saved himself by moving to Haiti in April of 1963 in counection with a contract with the govemment of Haiti where he sll resided on the day of the assassination of Presideat Kennedy. De Mobrenschildt, in retrospect, knew that Division Five of the FBI and the Solidarists had intended to-use him as a scapegoat along with Oswald and he did not hesitate to name the small group within the FBT as the instigators of the assassination of President Kennedy. (New Or- leans District Atiomey Records).The Torbitt Document -s Concerning the Solidarists, Jack Ruby was a second-generaion immigrant from the White Russian area of Poland and his brother, Hyman Rubenstein was bom there. Ralph Paul, Ruby's Dallas parmer in the Carousel Club, was a Rus- sian immigrant having been bor in Kiev, Rus- sia, (Ralph Paul and Hyman Rubenstein ex- hibits, XO. ‘While in confinement, Jack Ruby said in levers later authenticated by Hamilton Autographs, New York City, that pogroms agains the Jewsin this couatry were a real threat. He repeated over and over the words “pogroais against te Jews” in these leners and in anumber of habeas corpus hearings in federal district cour in Dallas and at the same time, he testified that Lyndoa Johnson ‘was the head ofthe organization carying outthe assassination plans. Ruby's testimony is accept- able in every court as an accomplice witness needing only corroboration insofar as his nam- ing Lyndon Johnson as one of his accomplices This has been done. Ruby's constant use of the words “pogroms against the Jew” reveal his clos affiliation with and his deeply ingrained awareness of his fam ily’s Russian Czarist background. Everyone even slightly conversant with Russian history knows that the words “pogroms aguinst the Jews” are exclusively descriptive ofthe Czatist Russian Cossacks pillaging and killing of Jews in their villages and neighborhoods in Russia uring the centuries under the Czars But to remurn to J. Edgar Hoover's connection with the Czarist Russians in exile, With the Solidarists’ vast number of agents within Russia and the common anti-communist objectives with J. Edgar Hooves, these wo groups immediately merged and have contaual- ly worked almost as one sine thar ime. In 1960, ‘when it was determined that Casto was a Com. munist, he too was considered an occupying force and the Cuban exiles with the common ‘cause worked quite nacrally inthe Solaris and Division Five organizations. ‘Another organization participating with Divi sion Five was a religious group called the Amer- ican Council of Christian Churches. American ‘Council of Christian Churches's West Coastrep- fesentative, EE. Bradley, was indicted by the New Orleans grand jury for complicity in the assassination. American Council of Chrisian ‘Churches launched a campaign in 1964, at J. Edgar Hoover's request. to elect him President ‘of the United States. (1964 Campaign Records; American Council of Christian Churches re cords, N-Y.C). In 1941, J. Edgar Hoover had his good friend and ageat, Carl Mclatie, organize the espionage and intelligence unit under the cover name “Ametican Council of Christian Churches" with ‘the headquarters in New York City. This group was able to take in many innocent religious s70ups wio did not know they were connected with a spy and propaganda agency. However, Hoover and Mclntze, through this guise, were able to place agents posing as minisers and missionaries throughout the United Staes and ‘most Latin-American countries. We wall exarm- ine the involvement of this group's agents latex. (Religious Bodies of America, 1961, Revised; ‘New Orleans District Attomey Records).

Shaw and Jenkins will ‘be covered later and their close relationship es- ‘tablished. Prio had met with John De Menil-and Fidel Castro in Houston, Texas in 1956 and furnished Castro with the funds to purchase the ship which transported Castro and his men back to Cuba after their Mexican stay. This is documented in all accounts of Castro's rise to power. Prio, De Menil and their groap all turned vio- ently against Castro in 1960 when Castro made public his Communist connections. After this time, De Menil and Prio, through Schlumberger, furnished agents, arms, transportation and or- ganization for the overthrow of Castro. As 2 ‘matter of fact, Artime, who was in charge of the Bay of Pigs Cuban Revolutionary Council, had been Cuba’s premier under Prio’s rut. Jack Ruby's complicity with ex-presideat Prio in the running of guns to Cuba, both before and after Castro took charge in January 1959, documented by well over 150 creditable wit- nesses in the 26 volumes of evidence taken before the Warren Commission.

Both firms being directed by the same man, the stated corporate purpose was to encourage trade between nations. Their actual purpose was four- fold: 1. To fund and direct assassinations of Eur- copean, Mid-East and world leaders considered threats to the Westem World and tw peolewm interests ofthe backers. 2. To furnish couriers, agents and management in wansporting, depositing and re-channeling fands through Swiss banks for Las Vegas, Mi- ami, Havana and intemational gambling syndi- cates. 3. Tocooniinate the espionage activites ofthe Solidarists and Division Five of the FBI with ‘groups in sympathy with their objectives and to receive and channel funds and arms from the financiers to the action groups. 4. To build, acquire and operate hotels and gambling casinos in the Caribbean, Ialy, and at other tourist areas.

Among Connally's assigned duties was the keeping of Texas police agencies in lin after the murder. John Connally was an active participant in the assassination plans, but he was one of the agents whose over-all knowledge was limited by the “need to know” basis. ‘Ond of the banks through which the American backers channeled funds to Permindex was As- taldo Vaduz in Miami, Florida. As @ matter of fact, the Miami bank was owned and controlled by the Permindex financiers and board mem- bers.
