All members in this forum are in agreement that LBJ was not the mastermind of the assassination, with the exception of Prof. Fetzer and a few others.
We cannot know if LBJ was aware of the plot before it happened but there is a chance that when Allen Dulles, one of the conspirators and right hand man of the instigators
visited him at his Texas ranch, gave him a few hints.
I doubt it that Dulles told him that JFK was about to be executed at LBJ's state, but he probably discussed with him the troubles the US foreign policy was facing abroad
and that JFK was a disappointment and probably too clever for his own good. They probably agreed on all issues, and Dulles might have told him that JFK was about too
loose the elections, or even worse strange things could happen that will force JFK to resign or maybe an ilness or some unfortunate incident might remove him from office.
All LBJ had to do, if something strange happened, was to cooperate with Dulles and the people above him when the situation was to become dire, and in exchange they will help him with the scandals he was facing and maybe help him to become the next President. But this is only a speculation.
But it is a documented fact that LBJ was part of the cover up and there is not a single doubt about that.
PS. I would like to personally and publicly thank Seamus Coogan and Phil Dragoo for contributing, editing and helping to write this article which i consider to be a joint effort.
I also like to thank Jim DiEugenio for checking, correcting and publishing this article to the CTKA site.
