Assassin (2) A member of a secret order of Moslem fanatics who terrorize and killed Christian Crusaders. If the Moslems want to distant themselves from the fanatic murders, they need to weed the bad ones out of their society and systematically expunge that type from their religion. Other wise, one might think they condone such activity. The ball is in their court. They like the murder and mayhem or they don't. They are a part of the problem or they or not. They need to choose and let the rest of the world know where they stand.

I can't believe that Muslims, those who are truly devoted to the Koran, are totally upset about the lost of life at WTC; their Koran commands that infidels be converted or killed. One "liberal" Pakistani woman in my office, (is non-religious, never wears a dress), insists that the Koran is the Word of G-d. I'm glad that I know this to be completely and totally false, but she has been giddy and cheerful since this happened (not too broke up about it at all). The only people from that region of the world that I would trust are those that have converted to Christianity, and I would barely trust them. I'm glad all you liberal-minded posters on here are going to assume that every devout Muslim in the US is not sympathetic to this terrorism, not a long-term terrorist plant, waiting to perform some heinous crime, and is one who holds the same basic values as a typical American. I, for one, am not that trusting. I will treat individuals with good manners and the rest, but I will never trust ANY foreigner like I do a typical person, esp Muslims who have left the Islamic Middle East to live in the Great Satan; forget it......

Well done GW. Only our enemies benefit if we make this a religious war.

Comes from hashishan (from their use of marijuana). These fanatics were controlled by "The Old Man of the Mountain" and were much more of a threat to Moslems than they were to Christians. Several times, the Moslems tried to destroy them, but weren't successful until Temujin's (also known as Ghenghis Kha Khan) armies (fresh from conquering India) destroyed them. Omar Khayyim (the great Persian Poet) had a friend who was their chief at one time. I believe that Omar was also one of the few who actually was able to escape from the fortress of the hashishans when captured.
