Lt. "Me suggestion of: foreign involvement_also came
from JAM 4ER, National Director of the Congress
of Racital Equality (CORE), that the killing ‘was an
international plot tn @ political killing.'
"MALCOLM X first went into the Arab world
beth as a Muslim and as a Negro, frequented the United
Nations although he had no accreditation and conferred
often in the Delegate's Lounge with African and Asian
Diplomats.
"He told friends not long ago that he had been
offered the job with NASSER of the United Arab Republic,
and also had been approved to work for President
KWAME NKRUMAH of Ghana.
"The Ghanan job reportedly was to be NKRUMAH's
anti-American speech writer and political advisor on
East-West relations.
"United Nations Security guards shrugged and
said "We had orders not to challenge him when asked why
MALCOLM X had such easy access to the International Forum.
"Por a year prior to his murder, MALCOLM could be~:
seen in the lounge dispersing his message about American's
abuse of Afro-Americans and discussing Mississippi, Harlem
and other Negro qhettos.
oes "added to the mystery of why the Muslim renegade
ee admittedly broke, could travel to Cairo, Ghana, and Mecca, could
afford.a body. guard, dressed in a well-tailored suit and sport
manicured hands."
On January 22, 1965, in discussing a future trip, MALCOLM
X did not specifically state that his reason for planning
to return to Egypt in April, 1954, was to cause the Muslim
leaders to repudiate ELIJAH MUHAMMAD, National Leader of the
NOI, thus causing the NOI to crumble, but made a very strong
inference that this was the purpose behind his trip.
