ISIS are the Modern Hashashins

Most people have played Assassins Creed by now, and have probably wondered where Assassins actually came from. No not Japan and China. They actually come from the Middle East, and the ancient tradition of the "Hashashins".

There was a man called "The Old man of the Mountain" and he had a castle fortress on a mountain and he would get people high on Marijuana (much like the Tea Party) and convince people that if they fought for him they would go to heaven.

They were basically like fight club in that they would infiltrate from the bottom. They would get a job as like the kings servant, or slave and work for him for years, then one night kill him or arrange things politically via his trust.

There is one story where there was a Sultan that was afraid of some Assassins, so he surrounded his tent with guards while he slept. And when he woke up there was a plate of like the ancient muslim version of cupcakes, which he knew were put there by assassins and were probably full of poison. So he left.

The Assassins in the end were the direct enemy of the Knights Templar. And today we can almost see a parallel in ISIS and the Tea Party. lol
Both are brutally violent thugs, and the Western side in particular, has tons of guns with little focus except destruction, nationalism and expansion of wealth.
The Tea Party??????????

I suppose you could draw a loose link between them in that regard.
I wonder if this new caliph is one of the "advisers" the US sent over there?
Gotta create some new enemies; that Al-Qaeda crap has worn thin.
The War Machine needs new contracts and new money. Dick Cheney is looking for another pay-day.
He's one of the prisoners released from some prison in Iraq. Bet they're wishing for a "do over" on that one.

Actually, I don't expect us to go toe to toe with the Russkies over this. I do expect it to get worse before it gets better. A lot worse. I have so many people thinking they already know my age, and judge me based on their assumptions, I prefer they remain ignorant. Most think I'm in my centennials, some think I was born in 1966 due to my avatar I suppose (hint: it's an old address, not a birth date), and you seem to think I'm young and inexperienced.."they also have a better self-dependent peasant component than we do".... a hard life make the subject hard.

We work with the data we're given and make assumptions...As for your analysis, yep I agree, it will get worse

Too often, people make assumptions and then convince themselves it's data. Not aimed at you.
honestly red, enough with the preaching.

you make lies into the truth in your head and ignore people when they point out what a liar you are.

The Tea Party??????????
Yeah, the people that are pretending someone is after their guns, and waving around flags the same way the crusaders were waving around crosses. As if it makes whatever they say or do ok, even if it means being racist or shooting up a school.

The Tea Party again??????? You are truly strange. Nice lie about the Israelis. Too bad we all have news or some idiots might believe you.
What did I ever say about Israelis? I am talking about the Tea Party and how they are shooting up schools in AMERICA.
