[HRH1948]

Muslim terrorism is nothing new. The very word “assassin” originates from the medieval Nizari Ismailis.

Terrorism was and is used to intimidate the rulers and the ruled into behavior approved of by the Islamic terrorists. Even the great Saladin changed his policies when he awoke with an assassin’s dagger next to him.

The Japanese used the Kamikaze as a weapon of terror. They knew the war was lost and an unconditional surrender was inevitable. The Kamikaze attacks were a last ditch effort to make the war too costly for the United States. They were hoping that we would sue for peace and accept a conditional surrender.

Finally, the Japanese would have been more than happy to attack civilian targets. Fortunately, there weren’t any within their range. However, they did manage to get some 6,000 bombs carried by balloons into the jet stream that were designed to blow up randomly in the US. The FBI shut down all reports of the damage, so we'll never know their degree of success or failure.

We seem to learn nothing from history. We continue to wrestle with all of the underling assassins and do not go after the “Old Man on the Mountain”. The grandson of Genghis Khan figured it out and effectively put an end to the terror for a couple of centuries.

Cut the head off and the snake will die and there is a snake in at least 50% of all mosques. One small mosque in Florida has already turned out two suicide murderers. One died in Orlando and one died in Syria.
