CONTINUATION OF DISPATCH SECRET ITGA-16512

9. Source further states that in view of the fact she (source) has many friends who like "posse," she was able to introduce to AMBIDDY/1 some important Venezuelans including Colonel Pulido Barreto, Carlos Siso (nat.), and Oswaldo Balaries (Venezuelan socialist). Source states that, at the AMBIDDY/1 house, there were meetings he held with those individuals in the source's house, according to AMBIDDY/1, the objective of the meetings was to get support for his plans, and the objective of the Venezuelans was to overthrow Romulo Betancourt, and they were willing to help AMBIDDY/1 with the Armed Forces (FALN). The conversations revolved around Castro Leon. The Venezuelans believed they could make a pact with the Communists and later eliminate them. At that time various members of FALN came to Miami (source doesn't remember them). AMBIDDY/1 assured the Venezuelans he could influence OPTOCUS and KUBARK to get support for their cause.

Carlos SISO told source he distrusted AMBIDDY/1 and believed he was a KUBARK penetration to learn all their plans. SISO also told source that when Oswaldo BALARIES returned to Venezuela he had been arrested, and SISO believed AMBIDDY/1 had denounced BALARIES. In the last meeting, SISO told source that he was going to put AMBIDDY/1 to a test. SISO also asked "whether it was true he had gone to Haiti on an official mission as an OPTOCUS envoy." AMBIDDY/1 was very surprised and said he had, but insisted in SISO telling him how he had learned that. The meetings with the groups of Venezuelans stopped since that time.

After these happenings, AMBIDDY/1 informed source he had written a report to the Americans about the Venezuelan problem, and that he had treated Rafael CALDERAS very well in this report because CALDERAS had given him financial assistance.

10. AMBIDDY/1 showed source an unbound book and told her it was the most important book OPTOCUS had because it contained military secrets which were known to a very few people. AMBIDDY/1 stated of being one of the few men in the U.S. who had that document. Source leafed through the book and saw some weapons, noticing that some of those weapons were marked. AMBIDDY/1 explained that those marked weapons are the ones which AMBIDDY/1 has in his possession.

11. Source further reports that on various occasions, in a private conversation which AMBIDDY/1 had with her, in Cuba he is going to organize guerrillas to invade Mexico and other countries which have denied help to Cuba. According to source, AMBIDDY/1 is convinced he will be President and Idea B. First Lady.

Then AMBIDDY/1 talks of the 1940 Constitution he says it must be defended publicly and mentions it often, but in private he has said that when he seizes power he is going to use every page of the Constitution as toilet paper.

12. Source heard AMBIDDY/1 talk about a book which had been published which strongly accused KUBARK, and he stated that, in England, if he found and sold the disk in any book shop, he would receive about $8,000.00 as their share of the sale profits.
