We read from and comment on Chapter 12 of "Israel's Superspy: The Life and Murder of a Media Mogul" by Gordon Thomas and Martin Dillon, which details Robert Maxwell's relationship with Semion Mogilevich which was cultivated in the years prior to Maxwell's death, and Maxwell's primary role in helping to elevate Mogilevich and his crime syndicate to global prominence, as well as some of the consequences of this relationship.
