Truth is that Gotti knew he could never win a war with the Genovese Family. Gotti's big gripe with Paul was that Paul sided with the Chin and against Gambino members. Lino, Boriello, DeCicco, were all killed by the Westside with no real retaliation. Bobby Manna was even heard on tape wanting to kill John and Gene! Jimmy Brown and Danny Marino were with Chin and were against John. The FBI and the media were alway's following JG and this was 24/7 365, and this was the reason he was not also hit. John could of sent a crew to hit Chin but he never did. Had John ever tried to kill the Chin I think that has own family would have hit JG before it happened. Gotti had a crew of killers while Vincent had a ARMY of Killers. JG was not BOSS material. His own words convicted him and he died in prison because of it. Gravano was only used to humiliate him. Vincent was a BOSS for 25 years, JG hit Paul 12/85 and was gone forever by 1992. JG was in jail awaiting trial more then he was free during that time.
wise old owl sat on a oak , the more he heard the less he spoke , the less he spoke the more he heard , wasn't that a wise ole bird.

Okay, I had to refresh my memory, DeCiccio supposedly went to Casso asking him his view on Big Paul, according to Gravano, Casso told DeCiccio "he didnt give a fuck about Big Paul". Either way Casso wasnt in the position to be sought out for a murder plot against a boss as he never told Furnari of his convo with Deciccio. After Castellano was killed, Gigante & Corallo were furious, they both decided Gotti had to go. Jimmy Brown and Danny Marino, Gotti's capos, were in on the plot. Another indication that Gotti never actually inquired about murdering Castellano, was the fact that he told the other bosses that he had guys looking into who did it. Corallo and Gigante thought it was bull. They gave the hit to Casso and Amuso who planned it out. So yeah, Corallo was the boss at the time and okayed the hit. Casso had expressed indifference when originally was approached by DeCicco.
