David:
Lisa does mention Ferrie, Shaw and Freeport, its in Part One.
If you look at the chart on page 26, of Part 2, you will see that LBJ stopped the bill on Kennedy's desk shortly after he assumed office, the aid to Indonesia, and he also stopped NSAM 179.LBJ was in the pocket of Long and Whitney.
But I totally agree about the whole Dulles vs non aligned movement which Sukarno started. Thanks for the tip on the bank proposal, will look into that.
Dawn:
I confine myself to the four assassinations of the sixties and JFK's foreign policy. If I cannot be really good at something, I just don't really go there.
BTW, I just adopted JFK's foreign policy about two years ago since no one really specialized in it. We were all just rolling around in the dark with Vietnam and Cuba etc. Lisa's article above broke the logjam and then I discovered Mahoney's book about JFK and the Congo.
BTW, did you see my talk at the Wecht conference at the anniversary? It brought the house down. Its still online I think.
