Subject: Your Comments
Dear Gary Gevisser,
By coincidence, I came across a message you wrote (http://nextraterrestrial.com/pdf/676-681.htm) in which you state that "David clearly getting tremendous joy at putting Roy Essakow down, someone I understand who has
donated some of his-Marc Rich's “ill-gotten” gains to the Orthodox Jewish
Synagogue where I said, David, I believe, remains the president, in good
standing."
I am only concerned with your personal comments. The fact that Roy Essakow worked for Marc Rich is Switzerland after Mr. Rich's questionable
activities (Marc RIch was never tried, let alone
found gulty of anything) in the United States does not mean that the money that Roy earned while working for Marc Rich in Switzerland
for some 10 years was ill gained.
The only reason that I bothered to write to you is that I met Roy severals years ago here in Israel through Beit Issie Shapiro, an organization that assists children with
developmental delay and Roy spoke quite
openly about having worked with Marc Rich before emigrating
to the United States.
I think it would be fair to presume that had Roy been involved in something
illegal (as you have openly stated), 1) he would have refrained from mentioning
his association with Marc RIch and 2) as Marc Rich
was a fugitive from the U.S., had there been ongoing illegal activity, it
probably would have been impossible for Roy to immigrate to the U.S.
Unless you have some very specific proof, I suggest you write a
letter of apology to all those people mentioned in your message with a copy to
me.
