I put my money on the Mafia in this fight.
i’m not so sure.. it may be their home turf, but the Cosa Nostra in America was hardened by the tough life of the depression and crackdowns by the feds and infighting amongst themselves... The mafia in italy generally have their own respective territories they control and generally respect one another’s turf, and the governments through their various changes had never really cracked down too seriously on them. sadly i think they grew too comfortable and complacent, and may collapse with a whimper...
