Yes, and actually because of the Normandie sabotage, the American government sought the help Luciano and the Mafia. They made a deal with Luciano that if the Mafia would help protect the docks from sabotage during the war , and the Sicilian Mafia to help with " Operation Avalanche " , the invasion of Sicily, he would be allowed to return to Sicily. He accepted and there were no more incidents of sabotage at the New York docks during the war. He was released from prison in 1946 and returned to Sicily.

Beware of your own racist bigotry here ... "once again the Italians harmed America ..." I doubt it was 'the Italians' so much as it was a few individuals who were out for their own financial gains.

And, alas, we always see what we want to see, even when the evidence points to something else.
