The
Pittsburgh Tribune Review on Thursday November 10, 2016 announced on
the front page of their newspaper the election of Donald Trump as the
45th President of the United States of America with the bold words, "A
NEW DAY DONS". I think "THEY" were revealing "in plain sight" what
"THEY" know to be true, that Donald Trump is a Don, a mafia Don.
Interestingly the Pittsburgh/Greensburg Tribune Review is
owned/controlled by the Mellon family, one of the wealthiest family
enterprises in America, and one of the financial backers of Resorts
International (see this referenced in the article below). The article
below is a chapter from a book written by Michael Collins Piper in 2005,
titled "The New Jerusalem" - "Zionist Power in America". The chapter is
titled, "Who Towers Behind Trump? The Strange Story of "The Donald"".
Who Towers Behind Trump by Michael Collins Piper
An inquiry into the background of flamboyant American entrepreneur
Donald J. Trump provides some surprising insights
into Trump’s path to power and influence, for the
fact is that Trump’s rise to stardom came as a direct consequence of his having
functioned as hardly more than a colorful front man
for some very wealthy behind-the-scenes sponsors.
Everyone knows, of course, about Trump’s gambling operations and of the
wide-ranging links of the gambling industry to organized crime. But the story
is much bigger than that. In his own memoir, The
Art of the Deal, Trump proudly described how in 1987 he bought his first casino interests when he purchased 93%
of the voting stock in the Resorts International gambling concern.
What Trump doesn’t tell his readers is what the late Andrew St.
George reported in The Spotlight on October 30, 1978 (and in the
previous September 25, 1978, issue): Resorts International was established and
controlled by front men for the Rockefeller and Rothschild
families and their “enforcers” in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and its
allied intelligence agency, Israel’s Mossad.
What made the report so
explosive was that this newspaper
pointed out that the illegally rigged casinos were being operated with the
collusion of “respectable” politicians, law
enforcement officials, Wall Street financiers who floated loans to finance
the gambling resorts and the high-profile gambling
resort operators themselves.
St. George pointed out that many of these casino resorts run by the mob through a
variety of front men have actually been engaged in a de facto partnership
with behind-the-scenes mobsters who have assisted the
CIA and the Mossad in massive laundering of
drug and gambling profits that have been channeled into covert operations of
the two allied
intelligence agencies. In return, the CIA and the
Mossad, using their own influence, have provided
“protection” for the illegally fixed gambling operations, preventing law enforcement authorities from cracking down
on this corruption.
Where does would-be president Trump fit into the picture? To find the answer,
one must turn to the murky origins of Resorts International.
Resorts evolved from a CIA front company set up in the early 1950s by then-CIA
director Allen W. Dulles and his close associate, three-term New York Governor
Thomas E. Dewey, political functionary in the
so-called “Rockefeller Republican” wing of the GOP.
The front company in question was the innocuously named Mary Carter Paint Company,
which operated a national chain of paint stores but was set up to function as a
covert CIA money-laundering operation.
In 1958-59 Dewey and a number of associates used a reported $2 million in CIA
funds to buy a controlling interest in the Crosby-Miller Corporation (headed by Dewey friend James Crosby), which was then merged
with Mary Carter.
Among other things, the new corporation laundered CIA money for arming the
anti-Castro Cuban exiles. The company also launched into lucrative casino gambling enterprises in the Caribbean where the CIA
was quite active during that period, having engaged
the Lansky crime syndicate in now-thoroughly documented and widely known plots
to topple Fidel Castro who had enraged the mob
by closing down its Cuban gambling enterprises.
Thus it should be no surprise that in 1963, Alvin I. Malnik, a top henchman of
crime syndicate boss Meyer Lansky, was found to be closely connected to the
operations of Mary Carter Paint.
In 1963, Mary Carter Paint spun off its paint division and during
the next several years began developing its casino operations, particularly in
the Bahamas.
In 1967-68, Mary Carter Paint officially changed its name to Resorts
International and began massive international
expansion. The Spotlight determined that several principal investors
provided the funds and assets for the venture:
• Meyer Lansky, the acknowledged “chairman of the board” and chief
financier of the underworld gambling syndicate, who maintained his own
longstanding ties to
not only Israel and the Mossad, but also the CIA and the American intelligence
community;
• David Rockefeller, head of the Rockefeller financial empire, who provided his family’s
clout and CIA and global banking connections to assist in the operation;
• The Investors Overseas Service (IOS), then the world’s largest
flight-capital conglomerate, controlling assets worth $2.5 billion.
• Tibor Rosenbaum, who was not only the Mossad’s Swiss-based chief
financier behind covert arms deals but also the head of the Banque De Credit Internationale of Geneva, the Lansky syndicate’s
chief European money laundry; and
• Baron Edmond de Rothschild of the European banking family and a personal
business partner of Rosenbaum in Rosenbaum’s Mossad-related ventures ranging
far and wide; and lastly,
• William Mellon Hitchcock, one of the heirs to the Mellon family
fortune (one of America’s largest private family fortunes, which, for many
years, has also maintained close ties with the CIA).
Resorts International
expanded by leaps and bounds and soon became one of the most profitable of all
the gambling enterprises, and by 1970 the underworld figures who were running the
casinos (in league with their behind-the-scenes partners) began moving to
expand casino gambling in the United States.
Mob chief Lansky called a high-level meeting of gambling syndicate figures in
Acapulco, Mexico and there the assembled mobsters pinpointed the fading resort of Atlantic City as their first new target. (Prior
to that time, of course, the mob had already established Nevada as the only outpost of legalized gambling on U.S.
soil.)
In the wake of this meeting, the resources of Resorts International were used (publicly
and privately) to begin the lobbying campaign that resulted in the legalizing of gambling in Atlantic City and once the
New Jersey legislature opened up the Garden State, Resorts moved in.
In 1987, upon the death of longtime CIA front man James Crosby,
the nominal head of Resorts International, up-and-coming young New York real
estate tycoon Donald
Trump stepped into the picture and bought Crosby’s interest in the gambling
empire.
Trump soon became a household name, with his colorful personality and his
insistence upon naming a variety of luxury hotels, apartment houses and other commercial ventures after himself. But while the name
“Trump” appeared in the headlines, the names
of the real movers behind Resorts International remained hidden from public
view.
