As an integral part of the Strategic Bombing Survey, Reliance established the initial structural base for brainwashing, opinion-making, polling, survey and the systems analysis used by the Tavistock Institute in the United States. The Reliance Insurance Company, based in Philadelphia, set up the corporate structure which enabled the Strategic Bombing Survey to be turned against the people of the United States who, although unaware of it, have been subjected to savage psychological warfare for the past 45 years. A key operative in this assault on the United States was David [sic--should be Kenneth] Bialkin of the Committee of 300 law firm, Wilkie, Farr and Gallagher. Bialkin ran the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for many years. The ADL is a British intelligence operation founded in the U.S. by MI6 and run by Saul Steinberg and Eric Trist of Tavistock. Saul Steinberg is the U.S. representative and business partner of the Jacob de Rothschild family of London. Reliance Corporation is home for Carl Lindner who succeeded Eli Black when he "fell" from a 44th floor window of a New York skyscraper. Reliance Company interfaces with the powerful United Fruit Company of Boston and New Orleans run by Max Fisher who, before be was sheepdipped, was a well-known Detroit underworld figure. United Fruit Company has long been a conveyer of heroin and cocaine into the U.S. under the expertise of Mishulam Riklis of Rapid American Corporation who masterminds shipments from Canada to the U.S. Remember, all this is under the aegis of a single company, gridding and interfacing with a myriad of smaller companies and operations to give the Committee of 300 full control of a multiplicity of operations, each one carefully interlocked in the grid. Reliance Group is a spinoff of the parent company whose function it is to brainwash the American people through a network of pollsters and opinion makers and relies on Opera- tions Research for direct links with the Tavistock Institute. Another associate company is Leasco, which is closely interfaced with AT&T, Disclosure Incorporated, Western Union International, Imbucon Ltd and Yankelovich, Skelly and White. << ++++ The obvious interface between Bronfman and Lindner is their relationship with Michael Milken--the junk bond king. Reliance Insurance is also interesting because, as Peter Dale Scott (Deep Politics and the Death of JFK, p. 285) has documented, in 1963 the company's Dallas office was in a building owned by the Great Southwest Corporation, which also owned a motel in Arlington, Texas, which, after Kennedy's assassination "[quoting Lee Harvey Oswald's brother, Robert]: 'seemed to be serving now as a kind of regional headquarters' for the Secret Service. If so, the Secret Service was dealing with its regular landlord; for the Dallas Secret Service office was housed in the building of the Reliance Life and Accident Insurance Company, of which the brothers Bedford and Angus Wynne were directors." Robert Oswald was familiar with the motel because his mother and sister-in-law, Marina, were held there for a number of days after Lee Harvey Oswald's arrest and murder. Keep in mind that the then-bankrupt Great Southwest Corp. was purchased by Penn Central, which is now owned by Carl Lindner's American Financial Corp. According to information in SEC filings of Reliance Insurance Companies, controlled by Saul Steinberg, in February 1980 Reliance owned 9.7% of the shares of Republic Financial Services, Inc., 11.9% of United Fire and Casualty, 10% of Provident National Corporation, as well as 24.9% of the Imperial Corporation of America and 7.2% of the Gibraltar Financial Corp. of California. In 1978 Reliance had owned 12% of Imperial Corporation, 8.6% of Provident (a Marvin Warner company) and invested 25% in Lomas and Nettleton. In 1979 Saul Steinberg's Reliance Insurance acquired 1,829,400 shares of Penn Central common stock for $39 million and received greenmail from Penn Central in 1980 for a pretax gain of $8.8 million. Steinberg was on the boards of a number of corporations in 1980, including Imperial Corporation of America, and Rothschild Investment Trust. In 1978 he was sued by the SEC and entered into a Consent Decree concerning the selling of stock in Pulte Home Corporation which he owned individually. Saul Steinberg was another of Milken's best customers. In addition, Steinberg attempted at one point a takeover of the Chemical Bank of New York and considered a buyout of Robert Maxwell's British companies. I can't remember the result of his negotiations with Maxwell, and it's too late for me to look it up tonight.
