The meaning of 'mafia'.

 I have previously suggested that at least two of the laws of Islam bear some resemblance to those of the Mafia.

Further to my knowledge I learn from Puzo, in his book 'The Sicilian' that the word 'mafia' in Arabic means place of sanctuary and the concept of 'omerta' came to Sicily in the tenth century with the Saracens. 

If the UK authorities take measures to stop the influence of the Mafia I don't suppose they'd do the same ........ No. 

I don't think so!
