I have decided to write an expose on the Jewish 'element' in the criminal underworld in the United States. I already have a page dedicated to them on my website, as well as a dozen or so accompanying biographies for some of their NYC based members.

But based upon several threads and posts over the last several days put up on GBB, I've decided to delve deeper into their mob.

Refer to them as you wish; The Kosher Nostra, Gefilte Fish Gangsters, or The Matzo Ball Mafia. They may be funny catchy names by the Jewish mob was no joke.

But by any other name the Jewish element of the underworld was by and large a huge continent of very 'capable' hoods, both in earning prowess and deadly enforcement.

From 'Lepke' Buchalter and 'Nig' Rosen, to Meyer Lansky and 'Little Gangy' Davidoff, these men controlled some of the deadliest gangs and ran some of the most profitable rackets there ever existed.

I'm presently inundated with over a dozen or so projects I'm working on for you guys. But first chance I get I'll create a nice expose that will lay out their true strength and history.
