How are the Oligarchs connected with the Russian mafia?

Always on a look out for nefarious Jewish connections.

Who knows for sure. But they are monopolists, just like the monopolists of America and have about as much contact as their American counterparts had with bootleggers and such. They might see them as tools but that's about it and then tools to bring about more power to their legitimate empires...highly doubt they would sell nukes to Islamics, especially since those Islamics have already once planted a bomb of TNT and uranium in Gorky Park (6 years back) and threatened the Rodina with nuclear destruction. Of course, unlike the US debatable response, if a nuke goes off in Russia, by the time the generals are done, there will be very few Islamics left in this world.
