... 44) Winter 2002 Last| Contents| Next Issue 44 The Years of Lyndon Johnson: Master of the Senate Robert Caro New York and London: Alfred Knopf, 2002, hb $35 (US) £35 (UK) (But in the UK only £22 from Amazon.com) This is the third volume in Caro's biography of LBJ. The first two volumes are wonderful pieces of work, the best biographies I have read; and in many ways this is their equal and deserves the praise it has received. Even if we ignore the story of LBJ, this contains an account of the workings of the US Senate in the 1950s and the mechanics of legislative politics ...

2. Who shot JFK [Lobster #46 (Winter 2003)]
... to research some of Wallace's career through Texas newspapers. Wallace, who died in a one car crash in 1971, had been convicted of murder in 1951 (5) and was suspected of the murder of others involved in the Billy Sol Estes scandal in Texas in 1960-62. Estes was a con-man who had been bribing Texas politicians, including LBJ, and when his fraudulent scheme began to unravel, the federal investigator on his trail and three potential witnesses were 'suicided', apparently by Wallace. (6) In 1984 Billy Sol Estes had his lawyer contact the Federal Justice Department and offered to talk about the role of LBJ and Wallace in eight murders, one of them JFK's ...

3. Power Beyond Reason (Book Review) [Lobster #47 (Summer 2004)]
... ) Summer 2004 Last| Contents| Next Issue 47 Power Beyond Reason: The Mental Collapse of Lyndon Johnson D. Jablow Hershman New Jersey: Barricade, 2002, $27.95 Colin Challen MP I tend to the view, presented succinctly in Who Shot JFK?, (10) that whoever assassinated Kennedy did so with the objective of installing LBJ as President. The tantalising question that arises is: did LBJ know? This book does not answer that question, but it does address issues about LBJ's mental state which make it feasible that he could have gone along with such a plan. (11) Hershman traces LBJ's mental history from childhood and finds him a serious manic depressive ...

4. Someone would have talked, reviewed [Lobster #53 (Summer 2007)]
... communist assassin, triggering another US invasion of Cuba and scuppering JFK's plans to do a deal with Castro. This is terribly plausible, a good hypothesis, and Hancock handles the immensely detailed material very well; but the basic problem remains: the trails all peter out as we arrive at Dealey Plaza. In the next section he shows how LBJ, the incoming president, organised the cover-up, heading-off attempts to get a real investigation. This ground is not nearly so well ploughed and this section is very useful indeed. (5 )But this raises what Hancock calls 'a very uncomfortable question...Is there any possible way in which the vice-President of the United States could ...

... service in WW2 and by the time he was talking he was old and ill. (He is now dead.) How much of what he said should be taken seriously? (6) No-one shooting from the front is mentioned by him. He places Jack Ruby at meetings to set-up the shooting, but no evidence linking Ruby and LBJ exists. (7) Factor's 'confession' looked like more confession nonsense (8 )because his account of the shooting placed him, 'Mac' Wallace and Oswald on the 6th floor of the Book Depository; and it had become an article of faith among the Warren Commission critics that if anyone was firing from the 6th floor, it ...

... poisoned...) was to provide a pretext for US intervention on Israel's side in the conflict and to intimidate the Soviet navy, then extending its reach into the Mediterranean. He also provides much evidence of US/UK/Australian intelligence cooperation with the Israeli campaign and the plausible claim that the Six Day war was actively promoted by LBJ (and some in Whitehall)( [1]) as a latter day 'Suez', to finally oust Egypt's President Nasser, pile pressure on North Vietnam and, most importantly, secure Johnson's re-election. It is often thought that Johnson – consummate congressional operator that he was – was something of an ingenue in international matters. In ...

7. Price of Power (Book review) [Lobster #36 (Winter 1998/9)]
... an area where our collective ignorance was due simply to idleness: this information's been there waiting for someone with the patience to dig it out and assemble it. Given that the Tories have always declined to say where the money came from, it is extraordinary that their opponents never adopted some variant of LBJ's pig-fucker strategy. The story goes that LBJ was discussing how to attack an opponent in an election early in his career. The opponent was a farmer, and LBJ said, 'Let's accuse him of fucking his pigs.' 'You can't do that,' replied LBJ's advisor. 'Why not? ', said LBJ. 'Let him deny it.' I have no information that ...

8. Kennedy Miscellany [Lobster #29 (Jun 1995)]
... devoted to the ritual trashing of the poor, demented, conspiracy buff by a couple of the incisive brains of the CSICOP. In one A4 page, their speakers, Melanie Klein and Don Yates, as reported in the magazine, made the following errors: Called the author of Crossfire, Jim Morrison, not Jim Marrs. Claimed that LBJ and Jackie Kennedy spent the whole flight from Dallas to Washington in the plane with the dead JFK's body( 'were with the body the entire trip'). This is offered as falsifying 'one theory...that a brain showing bullets from one direction was substituted during the flight from Dallas to Washington.' Which theory is ...

... of the Cold War and would follow the Agency's "no conspiracy' line. (On which see the CIA memo reprinted in this issue.) The political establishment, especially the Democrats with their long history of links to organised crime, had nothing to gain from the enthusiastic "pursuit of the truth'. (This applied spectacularly to LBJ, one of the most corrupt politicians in history.) In 1963 the American public had no idea of the intimate relationship between organised crime and the funding of political parties, and Jack Ruby's mafia presence ensured the silence of the Washington political establishment. As for the various intelligence and law enforcement agencies, first and foremost they had to ...

The author(s) affect an air of inside knowledge but offer only assertion. LBJ's role Meanwhile, on John Simkin's excellent on-line forum there is a very good discussion of LBJ (conspicuously missing from Fare-well America) and his possible role in the assassination, chiefly by Simkin, with contributions by other members of the forum.(3) Related to which is a typically careful look by Larry Hancock(4) at part of the LBJ story, the claim by Billy Sol Estes that he has Cliff Carter ...
