Throughout Chinese and foreign history, we can always see assassinations, whether it is the ancient Chinese Jing Ke assassination of the Qin King, or the assassination of lincoln and Kennedy in American history, are famous assassinations in history, and this disgraceful means has also become an important means of influencing a country or a war.
Of course, there are assassins, and naturally there will be assassination organizations. Today, let's take a look at the three major assassination organizations in the world. These three assassination organizations are the most well-known in history, one of which was wiped out by the Mongol army because it was too rampant, while the other two organizations are still alive and active.
First, the most famous assassination organization in history - Assasin
Assasin is an assassination organization active in the 8th to 14th centuries, and it is also the most famous assassination organization in history, and the English word for assassination is evolved from Assasin, which shows its position among all assassination organizations. When Assasin was first founded, it was only a branch of the Shia tribe of Islam that was established to spread the teachings.
Over time, Assasin evolved into an assassination organization that attacked political and religious opponents, and as the organization grew, Assasin began to become a professionally employed assassination organization and developed a radical and belligerent style. Because of the political assassinations, Assasin was also a nightmare for the upper echelons of the dynasty at that time.
At the time of the Crusader expedition, Assasin assassinated the commander of Damascus and two important figures of the Crusaders, achieving brilliant assassination results. Later, Möngke Khan's younger brother Hulegu, a descendant of Genghis Khan, led the Mongol army to the west to conquer the Abbasid dynasty.
In order to prevent the arrival of the Mongol Iron Horse, Assasin sent people to assassinate Hulagu Hulagu, but this time the assassination plan failed, the Mongol army stepped on the Abbasid dynasty in 1258, Assasin also because of the radical assassination plan, was retaliated by the Mongol army, and finally completely destroyed, the most famous assassination organization in history, thus disappeared in the long river of history.
Second, Israel's intelligence organization , the Mossad
No matter which country, it will have its own intelligence organization, and the quality of an intelligence organization can often determine the fate of a country. The role of the Mossad as Israel's intelligence organization and special mission bureau cannot be ignored. Although Israel is rarely mentioned and the Mossad is less known, if a comparison is made, the strength of the Mossad organization is obvious.
Israel's intelligence organization ranks among the world's four largest intelligence organizations, at the same level as those of the United States, the United Kingdom, and the former Soviet Union. In terms of national strength, the other three are all powerful countries, and the Mossad can not be underestimated by comparing them with the intelligence organizations of these countries.
The Mossad has done many earth-shattering things, the most famous of which is that in 1960, the Mossad sent people to Argentina to capture Adolf Eichmann, a senior German officer during World War II. In fact, after the end of World War II, the U.S. military captured Adolf Eichmann, but he escaped. He was exiled for 15 years without being captured, but finally fell into Israeli hands.
This shows the excellent intelligence work of the Mossad. In addition, in the fifties, the Mossad obtained a report written by the leader of the Soviet Union, Khrushchev, which criticized the former leader Stalin throughout, and then the report spread to the United States, and after it was published, it shocked the world. Five major wars broke out in the Middle East, and Israel was able to gain the upper hand, thanks to the Mossad.
Third, the organization that originated in Sicily, the Mafia
When it comes to the mafia, everyone must be familiar with it, in fact, the mafia is not the original name of this organization. A criminal organization that originated in Italy should actually be called The Mafia.
They were born in 1282, based in Sicily, the largest criminal organization in the region. Later, as Italy began to immigrate on a large scale, Mafia also spread to the United States. This organization has continued to grow in the United States, engaging in illegal activities such as assassinations, illegal trade, and interference in the administration of justice.
It is called the Mafia because every time the organization leaves a sign after its event, such as a black handprint, and slowly people get used to calling them mafia. Although the golden age of the mafia has passed and the organization has begun to decline from prosperity to decline, this has not made the mafia disappear completely. Mafia still exist in the United States and Italy today, but their activities have become more low-key.
In fact, at different times and in different countries, there are assassination organizations, but because such organizations do things that are not on the table, and the execution of assassinations needs to be kept low, even if they exist, they are generally not known. These three major assassination organizations will be mentioned because of their huge power, and what well-known assassination organizations do you know that have existed in history?
