Barney Ross & His Ties With The Mafia & *********s

[Fighting Marine]

Many people don't know about Barney Ross' ties with Jack Rubenstein (aka Jack Ruby) the man who murdered Lee Harvey Oswald. Barney Ross was also an errand boy for notorious mobster Al Capone.

After Ross retired from boxing he joined the US Army and soon after sustained injuries forcing him to quit. He also became addicted to morphine.

Futhermore, Ross also attempted to buy and smuggle weapons into Israel. So not only was he a 'very close' friend of Jack Rubenstein, he supported Zionist ********* groups.

This is just a quick summary. You can do some reading for yourself and find this is actually the truth.

Regardless of his dealings away from the Ring. Ross is no doubt a Top 50 ATG Boxer.

Oh, you've decided to actually do it, I see. ...Oh.

Your hate for all things ***ish is obvious. He grew up on the same neighborhood as Capone and Ruby, its only obvious they would know and have respect for one another. This has happened with countless fighters and gangsters.

As far as your claims of him trying to buy and smuggle weapons...please elaborate. Fact is Ross, while still in the US, went against **** sympathizers during WWII. Thats a far cry from being a *********.

Where did I mention the word "***ish" in my post??? You are pathetic in your attempts to try and label me as an Anti-Semite so just drop the childish accusation JAB.

Barney Ross was more than just 'buddies' with Al Capone as you soo aptly put it. During his testimonies to the Warren Commission while being interviewed by the FBI over his connection with Jack Ruby and Capone, Barney confessed he was given envelopes to deliver by Capone for money. So he was more than just his 'buddy' he was also working for him.

Ross reportedly attempted to provide arms in 1948 to Israel, as the state struggled with Egypt over a Zionist homeland. Your claims that he had no connection with Israel is disgraceful.

My friend, your agenda is clear to many, many posters on here.

What does that have to do with him as a fighter? Should I point out all the other fighters in history with connections to ob related figures?

Reportedly? Do you have ANY solid proof? And even if he was I'll ask again.....what does that have to do with his fighting career?

Funny thing is. All the posters who accuse me of being an Anti-Semite have failed to produce one post I have made which was inflammatory or derogatory towards ******* or the ***ish people.

Reading comprehension son. Did you not read my opening post in full???

Here is the quote again.

Regardless of his dealings away from the Ring. Ross is no doubt a Top 50 ATG Boxer.

As I said. His actions outside the ring have nothing to do with what he accomplished as a fighter.

Once again. You must have not read my OP. It has nothing to do with his Boxing career. This thread is purely about his life after boxing.

Also, why do you consistently ignore the fact he had obvious ties with Israel??? WHY???

I think Jab posted this a while ago actually, was meant to order it but forgot, is it a good read ?.

Knew about Ross' ties with Al Capone and other gangsters, didn't know anything about said *********s though.

Book review by Bert Sugar. Of course, the Zionists will not be referred to as *********s as the American media is owned by Zionists. Read it yourself and come up with your own conclusions.

I've read the book twice and nowhere does it say anything about him being a "*********". Doing what he could to help his people in their fight against Hitler is not only acceptable, but honorable. Out of sheer bigotry you've tried to paint a picture of him that simply isn't true. Maybe you should try reading the whole book and not just a review before making claims that don't tell all the facts.
