I’m exploring how the Jewish Mafia fundamentally shaped American organized crime through their deadly partnership with Italian families. From Murd*r Incorporated’s 1,000+ contract killings to Meyer Lansky’s alliance with Lucky Luciano, Jewish criminals became the secret army and enforcement arm of Cosa Nostra. Figures like Bugsy Siegel, Dutch Schultz, and Arnold Rothstein didn’t just operate alongside Italian mobsters - they became their most trusted hitmen and business partners. Mur*er Inc wasn’t just a Jewish operation; it was the enforcement unit for the entire National Crime Syndicate. This reveals how Jewish organized crime evolved from Prohibition bootlegging into America’s most feared contract k*lling operation, serving as muscle for Italian families who needed plausible deniability. The partnership made Jewish mobsters indispensable to Cosa Nostra operations nationwide.
