Great clip, thanks for posting.

LBJ had reason, perhaps, for his qualms. After all, LBJ more or less told WC Warren that sidestepping a nuke war with Russia was Job 1.

I must have missed that one. Do you have a source for that?

For you younger readers the idea of a nuke war in 1963 was fresh and real---in 1962, some people thought it was 50/50 the US and Russia would have a nuke war (the CMC).

Here, LBJ seems to be hinting at Russia and Cuba.

BTW---the US Ambassador to Mexico, Thomas Mann, and the State Department staffer in Mexico Charles Thomas, both thought there was a lot to the Cuba-LHO connection, and they were both shut down, and both lost their jobs in short order.

--- End quote ---

It's no secret LHO was trying to get a visa to Cuba while in Mexico City. There is no evidence that had anything to do with his assassination of JFK. How could anyone, Oswald included, have known that just a few months later Oswald would be working at a building overlooking a route JFK would be taking in a slow moving open top car?
