And Ye Shall Know The Truth
In the 1950s the Central Intelligence Agency [a.k.a.The Company] apparently sharpening its skills, sanctioned its staff to do a study of the art of assassination. Now thanks to the U.S. Freedom Of Information Act [FOIA] ordinary citizens are able to put their “eyes on” what was once labeled “for your eyes only”. Amongst these “declassified files” files can be found A Study Of Assassination, with relevant references to Lincoln and Booth:
“Assassination is a term thought to be derived from ‘Hashish’, a drug similar to marijuana, said to have been used by Hasan-Dan-Sabah to induce motivation in his followers, who were assigned to carry out political and other murders, usually at the cost of their lives......It is here used to describe the planned killing of a person......".
"The techniques employed will vary according to whether the subject is unaware of his danger, aware but unguarded, or guarded. They will also be affected by whether or not the assassin is to be killed with the subject hereafter, assassinations in which the subject is unaware will be termed ‘simple’, those where the subject is aware but unguarded will be termed ‘chase’, those where the victim is guarded will be termed ‘guarded’. If the assassin is to die with the subject, the act will be called ‘lost’. If the assassin is to escape, the adjective will be ‘safe’. It should be noted that no compromises should exist here. The assassin must not fall alive into enemy hands.....“In safe assassinations, the assassin needs the usual qualities of a clandestine agent. He should be determined, courageous, intelligent, resourceful, and physically active. His safe evacuation after the act is absolutely essential…In lost assassinations the assassin must be a fanatic of some sort. Politics, religion, and revenge are about the only feasible motives. Since a fanatic is unstable psychologically, he must be handled with extreme care”.
