Their role in shaping public opinion through their media interests, and their mastering of the world of business and trade is pivotal to the world economy. As a group they are the most successful in terms of income and wealth and they have reached the highest echelons or the pinnacle of power in every field. Jews are the masters of Hollywood, they are the masters of all forms of media, radio, and television. They are masters of trade and commerce and banking, medicine, and law. The following lists we believe prove this reality. Jewish Lists The lists below are available on the internet. A spot check of several of the names found it to be generally accurate, though we cannot vouch for ALL of the names, and some titles may be out of date. The second list claims to be updated in 2012.

MAPES* INTRODUCTION In 1932, the film Scarface was released to the American public as “an indictment of gang rule in America and of the callous indifference of the government to this constantly increasing menace to our safety and our liberty.”1 Its charge to the government was: “What are you going to do about it?” 2 A little less than 40 years later, Congress passed a comprehensive set of statutes to combat crime as an organized enterprise, serving as a long overdue answer to a cross-decade plea for action. President Richard M. Nixon sanctioned these new laws, saying they would allow law enforcement to "launch a total war against organized crime."3 Up until then, the prosecution of organized crime had been seemingly ineffective: both state and federal law enforcement struggled for dominance, yet neither was able to independently control the problem. While state prosecutors developed innovative trial strategies to combat quickly developing criminal organizations, the federal government gradually passed legislation expanding its jurisdiction into criminal matters. These new laws further expanded federal jurisdiction, giving federal prosecutors the proper tools to attack organized crime head on through their expansive power to regulate interstate commerce.

THE DEATH PENALTY IN NEW YORK: AN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE Michael Lumer and Nancy Tenney* INTRODUCTION After more than three decades without an execution in New York, on March 7, 1995, Governor George Pataki signed a law reintroducing the death penalty into New York's criminal justice system.' Prior to Governor Pataki's election, the anti-death penalty stance of Governors Hugh Carey and Mario Cuomo guaranteed that all legislative attempts to restore capital punishment would be vetoed.2 As a candidate, Pataki made his support of capital punishment a prominent campaign theme and it seems clear that a majority of New Yorkers endorsed the death penalty through their votes in the 1994 gubernatorial elections.' It remains to be seen, * Michael Lumer, Associate, Law Offices of James C.
