Kathleen Collins Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 I believe it is possible that William Pawley paid for the assassination of JFK. Pawley came from a wealthy family in the United States. During the Second World War he founded the Flying Tigers (American Volunteer Group) unit in China. After the war Pawley held several diplomatic posts in Latin America, including being the United States Ambassador in Brazil and Peru. Pawley developed right-wing political views and was active in the Republican Party. A close friend of CIA director Allen W. Dulles, he took part in a policy that later become known as Executive Action (a plan to remove unfriendly foreign leaders from power). Pawley played a role in the a coup d'état that overthrew the Guatemalan government of Jacobo Arbenz in 1954 after he introduced land reforms and nationalized the United Fruit Company. In the 1950s Pawley owned an airline and a bus company in Cuba. He helped keep Fulgencio Batista in power after he lost the support of the people. After Batista was overthrown by Fidel Castro, Pawley pressurized President Eisenhower to provide military and financial help to anti-Castro Cubans based in the United States. In the winter of 1962 Eddie Bayo claimed that two officers in the Red Army based in Cuba wanted to defect to the United States. Bayo added that these men wanted to pass on details about atomic warheads and missiles that were still in Cuba despite the agreement that followed the Cuban Missile Crisis. Bayo had originally fought with Fidel Castro against Fulgencio Batista. He disagreed with Castro's policies after he gained power and moved to Miami and helped establish Alpha 66. His story was eventually taken up by several members of the anti-Castro community including Gerry P. Hemming, John Martino, Felipe Vidal Santiago and Frank Sturgis. Pawley became convinced that it was vitally important to help get these Soviet officers out of Cuba. To help this happen he communicated with James Eastland, the chairman of the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, about this story. Pawley also contacted Ted Shackley, head of the CIA's JM WAVE station in Miami. Shackley decided to help Pawley organize what became known as Operation Tilt. He also assigned William (Rip) Robertson, a fellow member of the CIA in Miami, to help with the operation. David Sanchez Morales, another CIA agent, also became involved in this attempt to bring out these two Soviet officers. In June, 1963, a small group, including Pawley, Eddie Bayo, William (Rip) Robertson, John Martino, and Richard Billings, a journalist working for Life Magazine, secretly arrived in Cuba. They were unsuccessful in their attempts to find these Soviet officers and they were forced to return to Miami. Bayo remained behind and it was rumoured that he had been captured and executed. However, his death was never reported in the Cuban press. William Pawley died of gunshot wounds in January, 1977. Officially it was suicide but some researchers believe it was connected to the investigations being carried out by the House Select Committee on Assassinations. John, I disagree. I believe H.L. Hunt paid for the Assassination. On another thread today, he is mentioned as having been with certain people who wanted to take back Cuba. Included with these people was Robert F. Kennedy right before his brother's death. In another thread today, H.L. Hunt was mentioned as being at the meeting at the Murchinson's house in Dallas the night before.

John Dolva Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 (edited) Tom, I wonder if you can say whether or not the Vigilant(ce) Inc. in the two following instances is related to the Vigilance Inc. in your post? Marcus Cuthbert Stewart Sr. - publisher : 'The Recorder' http://www.depauw.edu/library/archives/ijh...es/stewartm.htm " 'The Recorder' has been a powerful liberal voice in the black community, but Stewart is concerned with the total community as well. He led the first challenge to change the dual order of society in Indianapolis. He took on the Ku Klux Klan as well as the entire white community in a 1943 editorial campaign, which he continued until theaters, restaurants and hotels opened up to blacks in 1949. A 1951 editorial attacked Frank H. Best, a wealthy eccentric who backed "Vigilance, Inc.," a Ku Klux Klan-type organization. Stewart compared Best to D.C. Stephenson of the 1920s." (know anything about this Best. Is that the correct name? could it be Frank B. Best?) _____________________ And exerpts from "Under Cover" which mentions a Mrs Washburn aka T.N.T. and ex Gov Talmadge and his bodyguard (know who that body guard is?) and the setting up of Vigilantes Inc. in 1943?

And then there are those days when one should not even bother to get up out of bed. *************************************************************************** "Perhaps to some, the "brain games" have sufficiently stimulated the cerebral cortex to the extent that they will cease to chase the smoke and BS." That would be ideal, Purv. But, I ain't gonna hold my breath. I just might suffocate myself, ya know? "Thanks Terry! Sometimes, one has a "good day". And then there are those days when one should not even bother to get up out of bed." Yeah. And, sometimes, you just might as well be casting pearls before swine, my friend. Let's just hope for more of those "good" days for you, and for those who've learned to see through the smoke, and not get asphyxiated by it. Well, I'm headed up to Bakersfield to my niece's 21st birthday party today, and hopefully to drag my old friend, Dixie Dea out for dinner on Sunday. Short roadtrip, but long overdue. Take care of yourself, Purv. I'll be back 'atcha after I get home to Culver City on Sunday night. Ter Well, the "fat lady" ain't sung yet, but I sure here someone humming "Dixie".

They weren't just "whistling Dixie," when they warned that "The South was going to rise again!" Now, were they? We just never believed it would be exactly 100 years later, and coming out of Dallas. They sure in hell know how to hold a grudge, don't they? Or, maybe they just have long memories, kind of like elephants? Made it back in one piece from Bake. Dixie and I had a ball.

Chris Newton Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'm having the same problem with these dupes terry Anyway, there's some interesting stuff to be found here if you search on Pawley, Talisman and Clifton Co. (& Corp.): http://www.pbcountyclerk.com/oris/records_home.html I won't bore you with the tidbits but I found one agreement between Clifton Co. & Humbolt Oil if that means anything - Oil & Gas rights in Palm Beach County circa 1968?? weird. The land deals between Clifton/Pawley/Talisman are noteable for the amounts that they were dealing with: 3-9 million in 60's $$$ is quite a bit of cash.

These threads are, by far, the most interesting and enlightening in when it comes to piecing this puzzle together. Thanks Terry! Sometimes, one has a "good day". And then there are those days when one should not even bother to get up out of bed. *************************************************************************** "Perhaps to some, the "brain games" have sufficiently stimulated the cerebral cortex to the extent that they will cease to chase the smoke and BS." That would be ideal, Purv. But, I ain't gonna hold my breath. I just might suffocate myself, ya know? "Thanks Terry! Sometimes, one has a "good day". And then there are those days when one should not even bother to get up out of bed." Yeah. And, sometimes, you just might as well be casting pearls before swine, my friend. Let's just hope for more of those "good" days for you, and for those who've learned to see through the smoke, and not get asphyxiated by it. Well, I'm headed up to Bakersfield to my niece's 21st birthday party today, and hopefully to drag my old friend, Dixie Dea out for dinner on Sunday. Short roadtrip, but long overdue. Take care of yourself, Purv. I'll be back 'atcha after I get home to Culver City on Sunday night. Ter Well, the "fat lady" ain't sung yet, but I sure here someone humming "Dixie".

Terry Mauro Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I'm having the same problem with these dupes terry Anyway, there's some interesting stuff to be found here if you search on Pawley, Talisman and Clifton Co. (& Corp.): http://www.pbcountyclerk.com/oris/records_home.html I won't bore you with the tidbits but I found one agreement between Clifton Co. & Humbolt Oil if that means anything - Oil & Gas rights in Palm Beach County circa 1968?? weird. The land deals between Clifton/Pawley/Talisman are noteable for the amounts that they were dealing with: 3-9 million in 60's $$$ is quite a bit of cash. Excellent work Chris! Not only have you located the "smoking gun", but you have also found the unfired bullets as well. The absolute "Direct" link between William D. Pawley, Talisman Sugar, and the good ole "First City National Bank" boys as well. MONEY! ********************************************************** Great find, Chris. Thanks for the link, too. Humboldt Oil = Humble, Getty, possible Mobile subsidiaries? Gas stations in New York State in the late 60's early 70's. I remember seeing the names change from Sunoco in the early 50's, to Esso in the mid 50's, to Mobil in the early 60's, to Humble briefly in the late 60's, to Getty in the early 70's, back to Sunoco in the early 80's, to who-knows-what after that, maybe Citgo? Oil and the banks rule. At $3.89 a gallon here in L.A. That's the impending downfall slated for this present nouveau riche Roman Empire, known as the U.S. of A, and her Mother, the U.K. BOB DYLAN'S 115TH DREAM I was riding on the Mayflower When I thought I spied some land I yelled for Captain Arab I have yuh understand Who came running to the deck Said, "Boys, forget the whale Look on over yonder Cut the engines Change the sail Haul on the bowline" We sang that melody Like all tough sailors do When they are far away at sea "I think I'll call it America" I said as we hit land I took a deep breath I fell down, I could not stand Captain Arab he started Writing up some deeds He said, "Let's set up a fort And start buying the place with beads" Just then this cop comes down the street Crazy as a loon He throw us all in jail For carryin' harpoons Ah me I busted out Don't even ask me how I went to get some help I walked by a Guernsey cow Who directed me down To the Bowery slums Where people carried signs around Saying, "Ban the bums" I jumped right into line Sayin', "I hope that I'm not late" When I realized I hadn't eaten For five days straight I went into a restaurant Lookin' for the cook I told them I was the editor Of a famous etiquette book The waitress he was handsome He wore a powder blue cape I ordered some suzette, I said "Could you please make that crepe" Just then the whole kitchen exploded From boilin' fat Food was flying everywhere And I left without my hat Now, I didn't mean to be nosy But I went into a bank To get some bail for Arab And all the boys back in the tank They asked me for some collateral And I pulled down my pants They threw me in the alley When up comes this girl from France Who invited me to her house I went, but she had a friend Who knocked me out And robbed my boots And I was on the street again Well, I rapped upon a house With the U.S. flag upon display I said, "Could you help me out I got some friends down the way" The man says, "Get out of here I'll tear you limb from limb" I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too" He said, "You're not Him Get out of here before I break your bones I ain't your pop" I decided to have him arrested And I went looking for a cop I ran right outside And I hopped inside a cab I went out the other door This Englishman said, "Fab" As he saw me leap a hot dog stand And a chariot that stood Parked across from a building Advertising brotherhood I ran right through the front door Like a hobo sailor does But it was just a funeral parlor And the man asked me who I was I repeated that my friends Were all in jail, with a sigh He gave me his card He said, "Call me if they die" I shook his hand and said goodbye Ran out to the street When a bowling ball came down the road And knocked me off my feet A pay phone was ringing It just about blew my mind When I picked it up and said hello This foot came through the line Well, by this time I was fed up At tryin' to make a stab At bringin' back any help For my friends and Captain Arab I decided to flip a coin Like either heads or tails Would let me know if I should go Back to ship or back to jail So I hocked my sailor suit And I got a coin to flip It came up tails It rhymed with sails So I made it back to the ship Well, I got back and took The parkin' ticket off the mast I was ripping it to shreds When this coastguard boat went past They asked me my name And I said, "Captain Kidd" They believed me but They wanted to know What exactly that I did I said for the Pope of Eruke I was employed They let me go right away They were very paranoid Well, the last I heard of Arab He was stuck on a whale That was married to the deputy Sheriff of the jail But the funniest thing was When I was leavin' the bay I saw three ships a-sailin' They were all heading my way I asked the captain what his name was And how come he didn't drive a truck He said his name was Columbus I just said, "Good luck."

Pawley, Talisman Sugar, and the good ole "First City National Bank" boys as well. MONEY! Post #16 Actually! The "Talisman" Sugar company was owned by William D. Pawley. William Pawley thereafter managed to transfer a portion of his sugar production "quota" to the "Fanjul" family of Cuban suger producers, and, the remaining portion of his quota to "Oklaeeta" sugar which was in fact owned by Gulf & Western. Therefore, Pawley received a payment from these sugar producers for his allocated "quota", yet he himself was not engaged in the activity of sugar production. The great majority of the thousands of acres of land which "Talisman Sugar/AKA William D. Pawley" owned, was thereafter transferred to the "St. Joe Company", and has recently been acquired (with Federal tax dollars) through the auspices of none other than JEB Bush, Governor of Florida. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Carlos Manuel Arteaga" "Recruiter of Miami exiles for the Bay of Pigs Invasion."

"a warehouse manager for the Talisman Sugar Corp. in Palm Beach County". http://www.cubanet.org/CNews/y03/nov03/17e7.htm ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In addition to having siezed the Cuban transportation companies of William D. Pawley, Castro's sugar production continued to eat into the sugar profits of those such as Pawley; the Fanjul family; and such corporations as Gulf & Western and the Haitian Sugar Company (HASCO). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Therefore, the "war" against the sugar refinaries and cane fields of Cuba. In fact, even sugar on the high seas was not safe from the activities of those who wished to keep cuban sugar from cutting into the price of the big sugar company profits. http://members.aol.com/bblum6/cuba.htm However, at the same period in which foreign sugar shipments were being contaminated, Cuban sugar (in excess of any quota's) was being smuggled through Mexico into Texas and thereafter reported as "Texas Sugar" as well as Cuban sugar going into Canada as reportedly "Haitian" sugar, for later shipment into the New England states. http://www.free-internet.co.uk/users/ambro...ual_things.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.ph...c=5128&st=0 SUGAR Post #34 In the Kingdom of Big Sugar http://www.mariebrenner.com/articles/bigsugar/fan2.html "Okeelanta, a subsidary of South Puerto Rico Sugar, controlled 90,000 acres of sugar property in South Florida and 240,000 acres in the Dominican Republic. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.scripophily.net/soporisucone.html In 1959, the company changed its name from the South Porto Rico Sugar Company to the South Puerto Rico Sugar Company .

He was also an important delegate to both the U.S.-Cuban and international negotiations to establish bilateral and multilateral sugar stabilization agreements. Portuondo played an important part in the creation of the U.S.-Cuban Reciprocity Treaty of 1934.

Myra Bronstein Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 ...John, I disagree. I believe H.L. Hunt paid for the Assassination. On another thread today, he is mentioned as having been with certain people who wanted to take back Cuba. Included with these people was Robert F. Kennedy right before his brother's death. In another thread today, H.L. Hunt was mentioned as being at the meeting at the Murchinson's house in Dallas the night before. Kathy I can't find a source right now but I believe I've read that HL Hunt was flown out of Dallas immediately after the assassination (by the FBI?) and hidden (in NY?) for a couple of weeks until things cooled down. If that's true, then it's pretty friggin' suspicious. Though I don't think it's an either/or scenario, multiple goose-stepping jillionaires could have funded the murder.

I went and when I got up there, Ike Eisenhower, like the picture there, his picture was all over and the American flag was all over and he asked me if I knew anybody who was going to be on Castro's Cabinet and if I could see my influence to get a quota of sugar. I told him I was on probation. I could not go to Cuba. And he said well, we can get you to Cuba. I said what is it? I think he was a campaign manager for Ike Eisenhower or something. I really do not know who he was, hut I know he was up in some kind of a campaign and this fellow Porter was there. And that was about all there was to it.

Big Banking 3. Has a common bond to United Fruit, whose land in Cuba was primarily involved in sugar production. 4.

Meyer Lansky's father-in-law was the principal owner of Molaska, Inc. There's also Fidel's childhood friend Enrique Menocal, whose family ran the Sugar Institute in Cuba. Menocal defected before the Bay of Pigs and relocated to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he helped establish the Cuban Aid Relief (CAR), an anti-Castro Cuban organization of professionals who also opposed Batista. Officially named the Gen. Leonard Wood Fund for Cuban Aid Relief, it was named after the Army general who shared Teddy Roosevelt's glory in the attack on San Juan Hill during the war with Spain that left Cuba and the Phillipines US possessions. Also with the CAR were E. Wharton Shober, a CIA officer who was also president of Hannamen Hospital when it received US Army research grants. Menocal's son still lives in Philadelphia suburbs.

William Kelly Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I believe it is possible that William Pawley paid for the assassination of JFK. Pawley came from a wealthy family in the United States. During the Second World War he founded the Flying Tigers (American Volunteer Group) unit in China. After the war Pawley held several diplomatic posts in Latin America, including being the United States Ambassador in Brazil and Peru. Pawley developed right-wing political views and was active in the Republican Party. A close friend of CIA director Allen W. Dulles, he took part in a policy that later become known as Executive Action (a plan to remove unfriendly foreign leaders from power). Pawley played a role in the a coup d'état that overthrew the Guatemalan government of Jacobo Arbenz in 1954 after he introduced land reforms and nationalized the United Fruit Company. In the 1950s Pawley owned an airline and a bus company in Cuba. He helped keep Fulgencio Batista in power after he lost the support of the people. After Batista was overthrown by Fidel Castro, Pawley pressurized President Eisenhower to provide military and financial help to anti-Castro Cubans based in the United States. In the winter of 1962 Eddie Bayo claimed that two officers in the Red Army based in Cuba wanted to defect to the United States. Bayo added that these men wanted to pass on details about atomic warheads and missiles that were still in Cuba despite the agreement that followed the Cuban Missile Crisis. Bayo had originally fought with Fidel Castro against Fulgencio Batista. He disagreed with Castro's policies after he gained power and moved to Miami and helped establish Alpha 66. His story was eventually taken up by several members of the anti-Castro community including Gerry P. Hemming, John Martino, Felipe Vidal Santiago and Frank Sturgis. Pawley became convinced that it was vitally important to help get these Soviet officers out of Cuba. To help this happen he communicated with James Eastland, the chairman of the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, about this story. Pawley also contacted Ted Shackley, head of the CIA's JM WAVE station in Miami. Shackley decided to help Pawley organize what became known as Operation Tilt. He also assigned William (Rip) Robertson, a fellow member of the CIA in Miami, to help with the operation. David Sanchez Morales, another CIA agent, also became involved in this attempt to bring out these two Soviet officers. In June, 1963, a small group, including Pawley, Eddie Bayo, William (Rip) Robertson, John Martino, and Richard Billings, a journalist working for Life Magazine, secretly arrived in Cuba. They were unsuccessful in their attempts to find these Soviet officers and they were forced to return to Miami. Bayo remained behind and it was rumoured that he had been captured and executed. However, his death was never reported in the Cuban press. William Pawley died of gunshot wounds in January, 1977. Officially it was suicide but some researchers believe it was connected to the investigations being carried out by the House Select Committee on Assassinations. I just wanted to bring this thread back to life so I could find it. A lot of useful info. BK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
