John:
1. I read through the Bush correspondence. How could Mr. Bloomfield claim that he had a "friendship" with George H. W. Bush? A suspicion-driven interpretation would be that both Bush and LMB were both aware that the other was involved in the JFK murder and the implication was that Bloomfield was using that skeleton in Bush's closet as a foot-in-the-door with the US Vice-President.
Not sure if your question is rhetorical or not but many people use the word "friendship" for relationships that are business or political.
2. The Bronfman family is apparently a HUGE elephant in the room in Canadian recent history. Dozens of books written by them and about them. Bernard Bloomfield is cited in one of those books. It seems that both Bloomfield and the Bronfmans shared a cultural heritage of being Romanian Jewish-descended. Looks like the Bronfmans were such big-shots, that Bloomfield would be a small-fry in comparison and would not have had a big role in their family matters in any important way.
I agree, Bloomfield probably did some work legal work for them but he was probably not too important to them as they probably had many lawyers working for them. Were the Bronfamns involved in alcohol smuggling during prohibition?
3. Louis Bloomfield along with Gerald F. Fitzgerald are authors of a book called Crimes Against Internationally Protected Persons: Prevention and Punishment. Could this special interest on the part of Bloomfield trace back to the idea that the murder of JFK could have been illegal under international law?
Don't know.
Apparently, the definition of "internationally protected persons" includes leaders of countries. Bloomfield informs Bush that he is now (as Vice-President) such a protected person (under the 1978 treaty on protected persons). Could this be another veiled threat directed to Bush revolving implicitly around the subject of assassination?
I don't believe that Bloomfield was involved in assassinations.
4. Although the listing of LMB papers mentions the entry of King Carol of Romania into Canada, apparently no such entry ever occurred. In 1942, King Carol had gone into exile in Mexico, not in Canada. In 1942, King Carol was seeking status as a "government in exile" like the Dutch and Polish governments in exile in England.
5. King Carol was neither fish nor fowl on the issue of fascism. He apparently played both sides of the street both on fascism vs. anti-fascism and on the issue of pro-Jewish vs. anti-semitic policy. The wikipedia article on King Carol is tremendously long which implies to me that there is some ongoing controversy in the present day revolving around the same Romanian factions that were active back in 1942.
6. You mention that Bloomfield was in the Army in World War II and never left the country. But what type of duty did he perform, i.e. was he in Army Intelligence, Army Legal Affairs, etc etc.?
Your brief mention of his service seems vague. Maybe the records don't disclose what he was doing. Spartacus Educational claims he was in the OSS. If he were in the OSS, that would be pretty easy to determine (it would seem). Why is this question still unclear?
The problem is that there is no evidence that he was in the OSS. The Le Devoir article that Garrison mentioned in his book, and which I uploaded to this forum, does not seem to have a source for it. If it was not for this article, there may have not been any controversy about Bloomfield.
7. As CEO of Heineken Breweries of Canada, LMB would have been a direct acquaintance of Dirk Stikker. Dirk was at one time CEO of Heineken in the Netherlands, but also the Dutch Foreign Minister and then the Secretary-General of NATO when JFK was shot. This is a similar issue to the connection of LMB to the Rothschilds, Sonneborn Group, Ferenc Nagy etc. He had his hands in things involving very high level society. What was he really up to overall? Still a mystery IMHO.
8. When I am next at the library which I often visit and which has a copy of the book on protected persons by Bloomfield and Fitzgerald, I will glance through it and see whether it pertains to any of the issues we have discussed here such as assassinations of world leaders.
The more I think about it, this book might deal explicitly about assassinations of world leaders. I will keep you informed.
