My girlfriend used to live in Philadelphia, and mentioned that one of her favorite restaurants was the one very famously known as the place where the 'last supper' would be served to someone scheduled to be whacked.

She said the tension among the made men in the room would be palpable, because until it happened...nearly nobody knew who was the hit. Apparently it was NOT done in the restaurant...I'd think it would be bad for business.


She holds a distinctively romantic view of the Mob, from her time there. I understand it, in a Soprano's sorta way.


From documentation many decades old, the CIA has worked with the Mafia to supply drugs to the inner city, while taking the profits out for their world-wide manipulations and war-mongering...and God-playing. This association keeps many of these folks free to do their thing, away from local prying eyes. Once the DEA or FBI [[or higher) declares their authority over an investigation, locals must back down.


No cheers on this one...
