Toodoped, I said "worth noting", not worth "nothing". lol.
Giancana had to be smart enough to know that nobody was going to walk right over Mickey Cohen. I think both Giancana and Roselli helped instigate the war between the Dragna family and Cohen, knowing that the LAPD would come down like thunder on both organizations, which they did, and Chicago could pick up the pieces.
Im truly sorry Oaks i misread your post. I mean it was like few days after New Years eve so you have to forgive me lol In addition, later ill post the outcome from the 1960's, which resulted with over 80 murders during the 1970's, meaning ill post a list with all the hits and dates and also their possible assassins

Reading Rosselli bio, "All American Mafioso", again. He and Bugsy definitely worked together. No conflicts that the authors of this book know of. They claim before Rosselli went to prison, LA belonged to him, Bugsy and Dragna, and all decisions were agreed upon by those 3. Not sure I buy that. I'm inclined to believe Bugsy had the most pull being under Lansky, Luciano and Costello, but I'm sure at least on a person to person level this front was kept and thus the peace.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
