Giovanni Gambino Jr. said the mafia is better equipped to protect New Yorkers from Islamic State group attacks than the FBI and other security agencies.
The Italian mafia in New York has warned Islamic State group against carrying out attacks in New York, or otherwise face the consequences, RT reported Sunday.
The son of a New York mob boss, Giovanni Gambino Jr., said the mafia is in much better position to protect New Yorkers than the country's security forces, such as the FBI and Homeland Security.

“They [federal security forces] often act too late, or fail to see a complete picture of what's happening due to a lack of ‘human intelligence,’ ” Gambino told NBC News.
According to Reuters, Gambino said the mafia’s knowledge of individual movements and interaction with locals gives it the upper hand, even compared to the latest surveillance technologies being used by U.S. security and intelligence agencies.
The Gambino mob family said they want to pitch in their grain of sand to protect New Yorkers from extremists and their possible attacks in the city.
Giovanni Gambino Jr. is attempting to carve out a career as a Hollywood screenwriter, Reuters added, saying that the crime boss' son said that after the Nov. 13 Islamic State group attacks in Paris, protection in New York is more important than ever.
"The world is dangerous today, but people living in New York neighborhoods with Sicilian connections should feel safe," he said. "We make sure our friends and families are protected from extremists and terrorists, especially the brutal, psychopathic organization that calls itself the Islamic State.”
Gambino Jr assured viewers that the Islamic State group fears the Sicilian mafia, saying that is one of the main reasons why the extremist group has not tried to operate cells out of Sicily.
"The mafia has a bad reputation, but much of that's undeserved," says Gambino, who moved to Brooklyn in 1988. "As with everything in life, there are good, bad and ugly parts – the rise of global terrorism gives the mafia a chance to show its good side."
