#2 Assassinations are a common past-time in this part of the world. Anwar Sadat was assassinated in 1981 in Cairo. A fatwa approving the assassination (hit job) was put out by Blind Sheikh and Cleric Omar Abdel-Rahman, who was later convicted in the US for his role in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing during the Clinton administration. The Blind Sheikh is currently soaking up taxpayer money serving a life sentence at the Butner Medical Center in Butner, North Carolina.
