No, Lansky had no involvement with the Gallos. At the time of the Gallo/Profaci war, Lansky was very ill, from ulcers and a heart attack, and the strain of having lost all of his Havana gambling interests after Castro's takeover. His next move was to visit Israel, and to look for further gaming opportunities in the newly independent island-nations of the Caribbean. He had no time or energy for the Gallo-Profaci war.
