I think they will never be as powerfull as they once were but because the terrorism less attention is payed to the mafia..
You mean Mafia is powerful just for the attention payed? I mean, I guess Mafia is more powerful if they keep a low profile and the law enforcement taking care about terrorism. [/b][/quote]No, I mean that the FBI is busy fighting terrorism and because of that putting less pressure on the mafia. Of course, for the mafia that's a positive fact.
And as Turnbull said: the mafia will never become as powerfull as the once were.
