    When I was about twelve, in the era of ‘Reaganomics’ and big shoulder pads, my family and I were invited to a swanky dinner party by a wealthy business associate of my father’s. At some point during the otherwise polite dinner conversation, the talk inevitably came round to money. Asked by our beaming host what I thought about how wealth was created, without losing a beat, I replied: “you wanna make money? - you gotta kill people.” We were never invited to dinner again...at least now, with the benefit of Dr. Casagranda’s lectures, I have learned that even at twelve, I was was not very far off the mark.

      Thank you Professor Radfahrer! Our civilization is in dire straights, IMHO, Professor Casagranda's words are wise, understandable and his peppering of humor, sometimes dark, but otherwise is well enough understandable to be convincing of enough common people to be transformative a much larger segment if only "we" knew about him...I would like to see him more often and on a much larger public stage...something like George Carlin...goading and applauding the populace into demanding our governments become the leaders all of mankind's needs, if civilization is to beneficially move forward. Please promote this man when and wherever we can!

    The transactional nature of American society has gotten worse with the proliferation of the internet. Trust is at an all time low. I remember a co-worker was going to her friend's first book signing event in another state last year. I asked her for the title of the book so I can buy it and read it and she told me. When she came back I showed her the book and she was surprised that I actually meant it and that ' I would even care', in my mind it was a nothing burger, part course of being a human and genuinely interested in other humans, but to her it was the world.

    Whenever I want to learn about the world, I come to Dr. Roy Casagrande! The man outpours so much information while still being engaging

    Dr Casagranda thank you. It’s been a joy to listen to your lectures on the Middle East. One thing though and this is something a lot of people get wrong: the assassin cult were not called the Hashashin. They were called the Qassassin - the cutters. To cut in Arabic is ya’quss’. And as you evidently know, Egyptians drop the Qaaf letter and pronounce it as the A. The point being that it’s highly unlikely that a fanatic religious sect would use hashish and become doofuses. They’re more likely to be called ‘cutters’ because they can chop their enemy in two. Hope you get this.

      Egyptians do not replace "qaaf" with the strong "haa" sound, though. They replace it with a 'hamza. "Hashasheen" is with the strong Haa (like in "Hassan" or "Hussein") You are referring to the soft "Ha" sound in for eg "Hashem". So your theory is wrong.
      Cults using mind altering substances for compliance is as old as time. (The Oddysey and the "Lotus Eaters" for eg).
