Why do you think there would have been no war? Greene may have still tried to kill the mafia leaders including Milano, although he would have lacked Nardi's support then, but the Irish members of the gang would be still loyal to Greene, not Nardi or Milano I think.


When Milano and Scalish were strongly in charge, they let Greene earn (on his side of town). Scalish and Milano were businessmen and ALWAYS put money before violence. Especially Milano and Scalish, they did alot of business with other ethnicities besides Italians. Jack White was not the person Scalish wanted as boss, but Scalish's brother in law Maishe Rockman knew he could control Jack White whereas he would not have been in the loop if Angelo Lonardo was named successor (and should have been). Jack White was made fun of by the fellas behind his back...NO WAY Scalish chose him, it was engineered by Rockman who was always thirsty for power.
