College Course Claims JFK Conspiracy by ADL By MICHAEL GRANBERRY, TIMES STAFF WRITER Los Angeles Times, Thursday August 21, 1997, Part A, Page 1 top of page The South Orange County Community College District has approved a course that claims a conspiracy was behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and has committed $5,000 for flying in four guest speakers, one of whom says the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, masterminded the killing. Last November, Frogue received a bigger endorsement than any other candidate in the district, garnering 128,361 votes in a reelection bid for a decisive 61% to 39% win over his opponent. Frogue ... said during an interview last fall that he believed the Anti-Defamation League played a key role in killing Kennedy. Calling the Anti-Defamation League "a group of spies that actively keeps files on people . . . people like me," Frogue added, "I believe Lee Harvey Oswald worked for the ADL. That's right. . . . I believe the ADL was behind it." The author of "Final Judgment: The Missing Link in the JFK Assassination Conspiracy," Piper explained his views. The assassination, he said, "was a joint enterprise conducted on the highest levels of the American CIA, in collaboration with organized crime--and most specifically, with direct and profound involvement by the Israeli intelligence service, the Mossad." Piper assessed Israel's motive as having evolved from a dispute between Kennedy and the late David Ben-Gurion, the former Israeli prime minister. "They were involved in a heated dispute just months before the assassination," Piper said, "over Kennedy's refusal to support Israel in its drive to build a nuclear weapon. Other authors have documented that this dispute, as much as anything, caused Ben-Gurion to resign."
