Just curious is it was from Lilo or Rastelli?

Seeing as how it happened in January 1978.

In a documnetary it is stated that the Rizzuto's asked the Bonanno's for permission to whack Violi.
Not really sure why they even had to ask. I knew the Rizzutos had the Bonannos as allies but, never thought they were under their control.

Another reason of this belief was, when Vito rejected Massino's offer of the soldier to capo bump.......Actually curious when this happened also?
Was he inducted after the 3 capo hit or was he offered a capo position after the hit?
