Chapter Four
No Love Lost:
JFK, Meyer Lansky, the Mafia & the Israeli Lobby
There was a long history of bitter enmity between John
F. Kennedy and his powerful father Ambassador Joseph P.
Kennedy and organized crime boss Meyer Lansky, stemming
in part from the senior Kennedy's deals with the underworld.
This, however, did not stop the Kennedy family from cutting
deals with the crime syndicate when it came to winning
elections.
The Kennedy family's alleged anti-Semitism didn't do
anything to improve JFK's relations with Israel and its
American lobby either. Kennedy's intervention in the issue
of Algerian independence from France also drew sharp
criticism from the Israeli lobby as well. Yet, when John F.
Kennedy sought the presidency, he was willing to cut deals
with the Israeli lobby—for a price.
By the end of his presidency, however, Kennedy had
reneged on his deals, not only with Israel's Godfather, Meyer
Lansky, and his henchmen in the Mafia, but also with the
Israeli lobby.
John F. Kennedy was very much a product of his father's upbringing—
much to the dismay, it might be said, of many of even JFK's most devout
disciples. They would, frankly, prefer to forget much of the recorded history
of the Kennedy family and present JFK as something just short of being a
saint.
That President John F. Kennedy was the son of Ambassador Joseph P.
Kennedy long perceived to be, at the very least, neutral to the ambitions of
Nazi Germany—and, at the worst, an anti-Semite and even an admirer of
Adolf Hitler—has been a lot for Kennedy's admirers to swallow.
Ambassador Kennedy, of course, fought U.S. entry into World War II.
Several accounts of the period suggest that Kennedy himself returned from
Britain, where he served as American ambassador, with the intent of
launching a major campaign against President Roosevelt's war plans.
However, after a meeting at the White House between the ambassador
and the president, Kennedy backed off. What happened during that meeting is
ripe for speculation.
JFK, HITLER AND THE WAR IN EUROPE
What is interesting to note (and definitely little known) is that at the
same time Ambassador Kennedy was fighting against American
involvement in what became the Second World War, his sons Joe, Jr. and
John were also promoting the same agenda.
