Others will also be their targets, so anyone who thinks he can escape the violence of these scum by throwing the Jews under the bus is deluding himself. Indeed, Hezbollah was behind attacks on American and French troops in the early 80s, when the troops were trying to bring peace to a Lebanon wracked by civil war. I'd always heard that the Assassins used hashish, a form of marijuana. Their prime targets were the Sunni rulers who supported the Abbassid Caliphate. I suppose we may expect Hezbollah to terrorize Sunnis too, just like Al Qaeda terrorized Shi'a in Iraq. These jihadists start with killing Jews, move on to Christians and other non-Muslims, and end up killing Muslims wholesale. The jihadists offer Muslims only a progression to jahiliyya.

Shades of "The Old Man of the Mountain", who had something similar and from whom, via his use of hashish (impure morphine/heroin) to control his followers we get the word assassin. ‘… it includes a large indoor room that was remodeled to resemble “what we believe the martyrs’ heaven is like,” according to one of the guides on duty.’
