    In World War II, the United States and Japan clashed in the Pacific theater, with the war beginning with Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. This attack, which severely damaged the US Pacific Fleet, led to the US declaration of war on Japan and the subsequent entry of the United States into World War II. The war in the Pacific involved intense battles, including naval engagements, island-hopping campaigns, and eventually, the use of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which forced Japan's surrender in September 1945.

In Japan and elsewhere, especially in the West, the term yakuza can be used to refer to individual gangsters or criminals as well as to their organized groups and to Japanese organized crime in general. Yakuza adopt samurai-like rituals and often bear elaborate body tattoos. They engage in extortion, blackmail, smuggling, prostitution, drug trafficking, gambling, loan sharking, day-labor contracting, and other rackets and control many restaurants, bars, trucking companies, talent agencies, taxi fleets, factories, and other businesses in major Japanese cities. They are also involved in criminal activities worldwide. Taoka Kazuo (born March 28, 1912, Sanshōmura, Japan—died July 30, 1981, Amagasaki) was Japan’s major crime boss (oyabun), who, after World War II, rose to head a giant crime organization, the Yamaguchi-gumi. Though centered in Kōbe, it had interests and affiliates nationwide and consisted of more than 10,000 members (known as yakuza) divided into more than 500 bands. Kazuo Taoka was born to a poor farm family in a village on the island of Shikoku; his father died before Taoka was born, and his mother died when he was four years old. Raised by relatives, he left school in his early teens and in 1929 began associating with yakuza gangs in Kōbe; in the early 1930s he became an apprentice and then a member of Yamaguchi-gumi. During World War II the organization fell apart; Taoka restored it in the postwar years and made it into a giant cartel, dealing in extortion, labor racketeering, gambling, prostitution, loansharking, smuggling, show business, and other enterprises both legal and illegal. Ideologically he was ultra-rightist and ultra-nationalistic. ⏳𝐕𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐎 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 ⏳ 0:00 – Intro 01:07 – Part 1 Recap 07:14 – Being ‘made’ into the Yakuza 09:53 – Murder charges 16:07 – Kazuo Taoka takes over the Yamaguchi Gumi 18:27 – Kazuo meets Fumiko 30:11 – Labor Unions 33:06 – The jobs the government gave to the Yakuza 35:34 – The legit jobs of Taoka 36:43 – The expansion of the Yamaguchi-Gumi 39:32 – The Castellammarese-like war that broke out in the Yamaguchi Gumi 45:30 – Kazuo Taoka is attacked 52:59 – The time in the Yamaguchi-Gumi after Kazuo Taoka Links: Kazuo Taoka funeral: https://rumble.com/vutxof-kazuo-taoka-funeral-japan-yakuza-crime-syndicate.html https://www.britishpathe.com/asset/237284/ https://s1.thcdn.com/design- assets/documents/arrowfilms/Cops%20vs%20Thugs.pdf https://www.reddit.com/r/Mafia/comments/1dnasg1/kazuo_taoka_19131981_the_godfather_of_the/ https://www.reddit.com/r/HistoryPorn/comments/178cr3u/yamaguchigumi_leader_kazuo_taoka_third_from_the/ https://www.tokyocowboy.co/articles/yama-ichi-koso-kansais-bloody-yakuza-war https://www.crimelibrary.org/gangsters_outlaws/gang/yakuza/3.html https://alchetron.com/Kazuo-Taoka https://www.eluniversal.com/sucesos/193789/sombras-del-mal-el-padrino-de-la-yakuza 🍁 𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐚 🍁 🔔 For collaboration or promotion opportunities: Email: danatruppianamobtimes@gmail.com https://linktr.ee/danatruppiana Your source for the life and history of infamous gangsters ... and some other stuff, too.

He was the longest tenured boss in the history of the American Mafia. Magaddino was also involved in national La Cosa Nostra affairs. Magaddino was a charter member of Charles "Lucky" Luciano's Mafia Commission and attended important underworld summits such as the 1946 Havana Conference and the 1957 Apalachin Conference. It is believed Magaddino, along with Antonio and Johnny Papalia played a role in notorious Hamilton bootlegger Rocco Perri's disappearance in 1944, to gain more Canadian market control. Although fairly popular, Magaddino had enemies and survived several assassination attempts. In 1936, rival gangsters attempted to kill Magaddino with a bomb, killing his sister instead. In 1958, an assassin tossed a hand grenade through his kitchen window, which failed to explode. This second attempt on his life was said to be directed by mobsters who blamed Magaddino for the failed Apalachin Meeting, which was raided by New York State Police. Magaddino had never spent any significant time in prison, but in 1968, he and his son Peter were arrested and charged with interstate bookmaking. A raid on his son's home in Niagara Falls led to the discovery of approximately $473,134 in a suitcase. This created great animosity between the Buffalo family members and the Magaddinos, and led to a breakdown of their cooperation concerning criminal activities. The Buffalo family split into dissident factions; the leaders met in Rochester at the end of 1968, and by early 1969 ousted Magaddino as boss, leaving him to lead a faction made up of his once powerful in-laws and older crime family members, from 1969 until he died several years later. Stefano Magaddino died of a heart attack on July 19, 1974 at age 82 at Mount Saint Mary's Hospital in Lewiston, New York. His funeral mass was celebrated at St. Joseph's Roman Catholic church and he was buried in St. Joseph's Cemetery on Pine Avenue in Niagara Falls. ⏳𝐕𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐎 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 ⏳ 00:00 – Intro 05:40 – Recap on the series 13:00 – The Apalachin Meeting 14:01 – The French Connection 16:09 – End of recap, more on the Papalia-Agueci Network 23:11 - *TRIGGER WARNING* skip this chapter if you do not do well with explicit reiterations of crimes 25:08 – End of trigger warning, back to Alberto Agueci 27:21 – Fred Randaccio takes over Buffalo 28:44 – Stefano Magaddino’s paranoia 31:09 – The fake Stefano Magaddino v Joseph Bonanno feud 37:28 – Magaddino’s role in the mafia 40:17 – Charges start coming down 47:08 – Tullah Hanley 54:26 – The charges came until the end 🍁 𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐚 🍁 🔔 For collaboration or promotion opportunities: Email: danatruppianamobtimes@gmail.com https://linktr.ee/danatruppiana Your source for the life and history of infamous gangsters ... and some other stuff, too.

    Although he operated a legitimate funeral home business in Niagara Falls, New York, the Magaddino Memorial Chapel, with Prohibition in effect in the United States, Maggadino made his real money running a profitable bootlegging business by smuggling wine and spirits across the Niagara River into New York State, thereby supplying the needs of speakeasies located in Buffalo and the very "Honky-tonk" Niagara Falls. After Prohibition ended, Magaddino and his crime family made their money by means of loan sharking, illegal gambling, extortion, carjacking and labor racketeering, as well as other legitimate lucrative businesses such as linen service businesses that served the needs of most of the hotels located throughout the region, taxicab companies, and other service-oriented businesses. Magaddino's crime family held power in the underworld territories of Upstate and Western New York, namely, Buffalo, New York, bordering Canada and situated on Lake Erie, Rochester and Utica, along the Mohawk River as far east as Amsterdam, New York; from Eastern Pennsylvania as far west as Youngstown, Ohio, and in Canada from Fort Erie (opposite Buffalo) to Toronto, Ontario and as far east as Montreal, Quebec. By the 1960s, it was reported that Magaddino's crime syndicate supplied drugs to the Canadian cities of Hamilton and Guelph, which in turn supplied drugs to Toronto. Magaddino led his Buffalo family through its glory years and its most powerful and profitable era. He was an old-style boss who preferred to stay in the background and not draw any attention to himself or his criminal activities if possible. Due to his territory's remoteness yet the vast amount of it he controlled and being geographically insulated from the inter-family squabbles of the New York City-based families, he was held in high regard and was at times called upon to be an arbiter involving territorial disputes between crime families based there
