The Secret Origins of Terrorism (Documentary)

Описание: Long before modern special forces and covert operations, the medieval world had its own elite units trained for secrecy, infiltration, and psychological warfare.
In this documentary, we uncover the real assassins of the Dark Ages — shadowy operatives who carried out targeted killings, intelligence gathering, and strategic terror centuries before the concept of modern “black ops” existed. Far from myth or video games, these medieval special forces were real, disciplined, and terrifyingly effective.
From the mountains of the Middle East to the power struggles of medieval empires, this video explains who these assassins were, how they operated, who they served, and why their methods changed warfare forever. Their influence shaped politics, destabilized kingdoms, and left a legacy that still echoes in modern military strategy.

This is not fantasy.
This is not legend.
This is history — dark, calculated, and deadly.
