Huge, they own most construction in Queens. And they live like kings. And they have huge houses made of bricks, 3 stories tall, in areas of cape-style houses. I know, because I lived there.

We're going nuts on sanctions, but everyone of those mofo's are supporting their government. They are all Russian mobsters. And they're free to be assholes. No, those fucks should get run down by the feds!
 
Russian Jews have always been big in American organized crime. And this is also the case with the latest waves of Russian criminals here. They like Brighton Beach and Florida and LA, i.e. Jewish communities to settle in.

Late 20th century to present​

In more recent years, Jewish-American organized crime has reappeared in the form of Orthodox Jewish, Israeli and Jewish-Russian mafia criminal groups. Many of the Russian mobsters active in New York, especially Brighton Beach, are actually Soviet Jews, including Marat Balagula, Boris Nayfeld, and Evsei Agron.

From the 1990s until 2013, members of the New York divorce coercion gang kidnapped and tortured Jewish men in troubled marriages to force them into granting religious divorces to their wives, in some cases extorting money from them. Described by prosecutors as a "criminal syndicate" that was "akin to the Bloods, the Crips, or the Mafia," the organization, which charged up to $100,000 for their 'services,' was shut down in the wake of a sting operation orchestrated by the FBI.[33] While some tried to draw a distinction between the actions of the "well-organized operation" described by prosecutors and traditional kidnapping cases coming before judges that involved murder, terrorism or child abduction, Judge Freda Wolfson said she didn't see any difference.[34] Epstein was sentenced in 2015 to 10 years in prison,[34] and Wolmark was sentenced to more than 3 years in prison and a $50,000 fine.[35] In another development, a 2016 sting collared Aharon Goldberg and Shimen Liebowitz, two Satmar Hasidic Jews who were part of what The Forward described as the "Orthodox divorce underworld".[36] The pair had colluded with a third man to perform a contract killing on an estranged husband.[37]




Jewish-American organized crime and Israel​

Several notable Jewish-American mobsters provided financial support for Israel through donations to Jewish organizations since the country's creation in 1948. Jewish-American gangsters used Israel's Law of Return to flee criminal charges or face deportation. Notables include Joseph "Doc" Stacher, who built up Las Vegas by pairing the Jewish and Italian Mafia into a national organized crime syndicate. Prime Minister Golda Meir set out to reverse this trend in 1970, when she denied entrance to Meyer Lansky.[38] He was the mob's accountant, thought to be among the most powerful people in the country, with a gambling empire stretching throughout the United States.[citation needed]

In 2010, it was reported by Wikileaks that the United States Embassy in Israel, in a cable titled "Israel: The Promised Land of Organized Crime?", had expressed grave concern about the activities of Israeli organized crime figures, and was taking measures to prevent members of crime families from being issued visas to the United States. American diplomats expressed concern that Inbal Gavrieli, the niece of one of Israel's most powerful mafia bosses, had been elected to the Knesset as an MK for Likud.[39]


Russian and Israeli mafia in the United States​

The large numbers of otherwise honest Soviet Jewish émigrés into New York's Brighton Beach and other neighborhoods like it nationwide under the Jackson-Vanik Amendment have also included new Jewish gangsters, such as Marat Balagula, Boris Nayfeld, Monya Elson, and Ludwig Fainberg. They were raised, however, as secular Jews and share more in common culturally with Gentiles from the former Soviet Union than with their predecessors, such as Meyer Lansky, Kid Cann, and Mickey Cohen, who grew up in families that practiced Orthodox Judaism.[40][page needed]

Russian Jewish mafia figures, such as Semion Mogilevich, have attempted to penetrate the United States, including participating in a US$10 billion money-laundering scheme through the Bank of New York in 1998.

Israeli mobsters also have had a presence in the United States. The Israeli mafia (such as the Abergil crime family) is heavily involved in ecstasy trafficking in America.[41]
