Meyer Lansky, the Jewish Mob and the Nazi Underground Reich

"I'm a retired investor on a pension. I went to Israel to live there as a Jew in the twilight of my life."



"A revealing insight into this international f inancial and in- dustrial network was given me by a member of the Bormann organization residing in West Germany. Meyer Lansky, he said, the financial advisor to the Las Vegas-Miami underworld, sent a message to Bormann through my West German SS contact.

Lansky promised that if he received a piece of Bormann’s action he would keep the Israeli agents off Bormann’s back. 

“I have a very good relation with the Israeli secret police” was his claim,although he was to be kicked out of Israel later when his presence became too noted —and also at the urging of Bormann’s security chief in South America. At the time, Lansky was in thepenthouse suite of Jerusalem’s King David Hotel, in which he owned stock. 

He had fled to Israel to evade a U.S. federal warrant for his arrest. He sent his message to Bormann through his bag man in Switzerland, John Pullman, also wanted in the United States on a f ederal warrant. Lansky told Pullman to make this offer “which he can’t refuse.” 

The offer was forwarded to Buenos Aires, where it was greeted with laughter. 

When the laughter died down, it was replaced with action. 

Meyer Lansky was evicted from Israel, and was told by Swiss authorities to stay out of their country, so he flew to South America. 

There he offered any president who would give him asylum a cool $1 million in cash. He was turned down everywhere and had to continue his flight to Miami, where U.S. marshals, alerted, were waiting to take him into custody."

Our friend and business partner HYMAN ROTH is in the news.

[MICHAEL hands TOM a paper.]

You hear about it?

TOM

Well I hear that he's in Israel.

NERI

Um-uh. The high court in Israel turned down his request to live there as a return Jew. His passport's been invalidated except for return to the United States. He landed in Buenos Aries yesterday. He offered a gift of a million dollars if they let him stay. They turned him down.

TOM

He's gonna try Panama.

MICHAEL

Panama won't take him -- not for a million -- not for ten million.

TOM

His medical condition's reported as terminal -- he's only gonna live another six months anyway.

MICHAEL

He's been dying of the same heart attack for twenty years.

TOM

That plane goes to Miami.

MICHAEL

That's where I want it met.

TOM

Mike that's impossible -- they'll turn him over to the Internal Revenue, customs, and half the FBI.

MICHAEL

It's not impossible. Nothing's impossible.

TOM

I'd be like trying to kill the president -- there's no way we can get to him.

MICHAEL

TOM, you know you surprise me -- if anything in this life is certain -- if history has taught us anything -- it's that you can kill anybody. ROCCO?

ROCCO

Difficult -- not impossible.
