Tim Gratz Posted May 13, 2005 Author Share Posted May 13, 2005 Mark, interesting history. I am sure most forum members are aware of how the US used the Luciano organization during WW II. The fact that FDR made a deal with the mob does not of course justify the Joe Kennedy deal. But as I am sure I have said before, I do not believe there is evidence either JFK or RFK knew about the deal Joe made with the mob, and I think Joe never intended to keep it anyway. Remember the famous Harry Truman quote when he was asked if he had any concerns about JFK's Catholocism? Says Truman: "I'm not worried about the Pope. I'm worried about the Pop."
