Posted by: northanger at January 2, 2005 10:48 PMWhen a tree is infected by Die-back disease, merely leaves and branches are destroyed, however, in the lack of leaves and branchlets, the tree becomes prone to the environment (all modes of taxis are locked into malfunctioning programs), lowering its immunity system and consumes itself from within. Die-back and a civilization: paranoia : lack of investment : civilian as primary targets for both fronts : dereliction : all result in a reactionary response which is self-destructive rather than health recovering.

[2] What was West thinking? post (hashishin spirit)
My dear friends not all tragedies are the same. If the death of this remarkable human being had come by accident -- a storm, a hurricane, an earthquake, or some mechanical failure of a plane, it would be sad enough. But we know if we are truthful, that this was not an accident, no aberration, no single act of lunacy, no result of a breakdown of the psyche of some mad killer. Had this come from some twisted, moronic, intelligence, some illiterate thug, it might be easier to explain. Even if it had come from the hand of Esau it would be tragic and fateful and we would manage to find the proper political categories to explain how it came about. But this was an assassination by an intelligent Jew, by a religiously trained person with the approbation of not one but many rabbis with ordination. This was an assassination and assassination is not a Jewish word.
The word "assassin" is etymologically an Arab word that derives from the word "hashish". To be an assassin is to be a "hashishin". That refers to the secret orders of some Muslims who terrorized Christians and others during the Crusades and obeyed the orders to murder under the influence of hashish which was either smoked or chewed. But a Jew -- an assassin?
Posted by: northanger at January 3, 2005 05:02 AMnorthanger - all Burrough's Hassan-i-Sabah stuff is about the Assassins, terrorizing the Islamic world of the time from their fortress of Alamut on the Black Sea coast. Burroughs especially stresses the (Crowleyite? Hash inspired?) maxim attributed to Hassan-i-Sabah: "Nothing is true, everything is permitted."
Posted by: nick at January 3, 2005 06:26 AMAQ 210 HASSAN-I-SABAH = COUNTDOWN
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashshashin
The power of the Hashshashin was destroyed by the Mongol warlord Hulagu Khan [(also known as Hülegü, and Hulegu)], but several smaller sects remain to this day, such as the sect led by the Aga Khan. During the Mongol assault, the library of the sect was destroyed, and thus much information about them was lost.
appears everything eventually points back to ... you guessed it! ... Colonel Jackson ‘Hulugu’ West
Posted by: northanger at January 3, 2005 07:31 AMHulugu Khan swatted the previously unassailable assassins aside contemptuously while ravaging the entire region and strikingly ungodly horror into all that stood before his mounted hordes - hence West's 'affectionate' nickname. In 1258 Hulugu sacked Baghdad and piled up 70,000 skulls as a provocative political statement.
(As soon as good horse country ran out, in Southern Mesopotamia, the Mongol tide was halted -- having inflicted an unprecedented spiritual crisis on a population that had previously been assured of divine favour -- Islamic theology became a lot more tortured (even a little 'christian' = twisted by martyrdom ('why have you forsaken me' and all that)))
PS. From which West learns - nothing does better 'hearts and minds' on a resilient foe than the sulphurous taste of defeat.
Posted by: nick at January 3, 2005 08:54 AM>>>>>> also confused by image "Jama'at-e-Takfir". how is west involved in sadat's assassination? -if i'm not mistaken about that photo
>>>No, you didn’t mistaken about the photo; but Jama’at-e Takfir is also an underground military unit after West (seeking vengeance or information or ...; no information available)
what's the deal with West and the Jama'at-e-Takfir? is West linked with them?
Reza, I don't understand the exact relation between the Takfiri and the die-back machinery here - To what triggering mechanism is the ‘Takfiri under Taghieh’ attached, and by how is he bound; or is his camouflage itself an offensive weapon, autonomous from guiding authority - total dissimulation to make sure the enemy keeps thinking only about the fireworks on the battlefield?
I assume from what you say that it is not simply to be thought at the level of 'undercover operatives' but a more profound level of assimilation-as-dissimulation; investing the enemy to empty it out. The further they deviate in the service of universal fidelity the more their explosive potential grows; So do the Takfiri-under-Taghieh themselves even know what they're doing? Or who they are?

Nick + northanger,
Most of Burroughs stuff on Hassan and Hashashins is historically inaccurate, based on inaccurate and wrong western translations.
Assassin is not etymologically an Arabic word, it is a Farsi word. Hashish in old iran (both before and after Islam) was the most popular drug for Mages, Dervishes, Sufies and Poets. It is older than opium in iran. Hashashins (Assassins) are not the invention of Hassan i-Sabah. During the reign of Sunni caliphs, different Iranian Shia governments which had to pay huge amount of taxes to caliphs and were so distasteful of Arabs united with each other (from Sistan in the south east to Kurdistan in the west, Gilaan in north and Fars in south west and other places) they planned in secret to undermine, weaken and ultimately eradicate the reign of Caliphs. They incited many rebellions across Iran, some of which developed and turned into full insurgencies and really threatened the borders and even the most important cities in the empire of caliphs. However, few survived ... ibn Maymun was among those whose survived and succeeded in their missions, Iranian insurgents sent him to Morocco and Tunisia, he was one of the most influential occultists and conspiracist in Iran, so he followed an entirely different way to damage the Empire. For many years, he was trained by militant nomads, sorcerers, guerillas and different cults in Morocco and Tunisia; after finishing his studies he traveled to Egypt, the country he picked up as his primary zone of operation, soon he started to undermine the influence of caliphs by engineering vast occult networks in Egypt which were supposed to give birth to as many as islamic minorities they could afford, spreading heresies, new beliefs, and feed on monotheism not as a direct religious path but a laboratory for sorcerous experiments, coup d'etat, etc. After nearly ten years, he got new allies (Al Fatemids) who were under influence of his occult-religions and heresies and were originally Egyptian aristocrats. In less than a week, they toppled the caliph’s puppet government and declared their independency. They remained one of the worst enemies of caliphs until the end of Caliph’s empire which was finally became an Iranian puppet government. One of the first cults that Ibn Maymun assembled was Batinyya (Bateniun) who were the first prototypes of Isma-ilie’s assassins. They were devoted, eccentric, mad (in every sense of this word) and Hashish addicted, they were trained to operate stealthily, killing every target by any means possible. Later Batinyya dissolved to Ismailie, and Hassan I-Sabbah the admirer of Ibn Maymun was authorized by Al Fatemids to continue the path of Ibn Maymun and his Hashashins (the bond between Ismai’lies and Al Fatemids never destroyed).
More on Hassan and Assassins later.
Posted by: Reza at January 3, 2005 01:03 PM"Most of Burroughs stuff on Hassan and Hashashins is historically inaccurate, based on inaccurate and wrong western translations" - what fate could be more repugnant than that of a historical figure debased into hyperstition?
Posted by: nick at January 3, 2005 01:44 PMalso reza, what is the book that is illustrated at the top of your post?
Posted by: undercurrent at January 3, 2005 02:10 PMNick,
>>> what fate could be more repugnant than that of a historical figure debased into hyperstition?
Lol ... the interesting point is that sometimes the historical life of a person is more hyperstitional / pestilential, as in the case of Maymun (or even Sabah) who WAS a hyperstition engineer and harcore occultist; obviously western readers are more interested to hear about exotic ghost assassins, an inaccessible fortress and loads of hashish than listening to incomprehensible occult / conspiracy doctrines of a madman who is not even known in his country (talking about Maymun). The same thing about Japan (Samurais, Manga, Ninja, etc.)
Undercurrent,
It is a journalistic book (fiction, documentaries about Takfiries in Europe), once was a famous book but not really a good one.
Reza - definitely didn't want to close down the issue, after all, this could happen to anyone ...
Posted by: nick at January 3, 2005 03:16 PMNick, have you heard about HassanII? if not, will write about him in a post i'm writing. He is more Burroughsian than Hasan I (Hasan I-Sabah).
Posted by: Reza at January 3, 2005 03:23 PMUndercurrent, some very confused thoughts ... forgive me ... should sleep for an hour or two and return to your questions again (and apologies for all typos, mistakes, etc.):
A ‘Takfiri under Taghieh’ is nothing but a civilian, by destroying himself and civilians he can apply the die-back mechanism to a system. Taghieh is not directly connected to the die-back mechanism, it is a ‘logistical’ plane (remember that it is the only plane through which participation with strategy becomes impossible ... real commanders never seek to control a strategy, they look for a way to unleash it) by which a Takfiri can shift the role of taghieh from a mere camouflage to a powerful logistic plane for massively offensive strategies / tactics. Example: When a Takfiri goes under taghieh (as a sub-offensive logistical plane) it invests its sabotaging mechanisms within civilians, ‘civilians as back-doors’. A Takfiri under taghieh is disintegrated from a key operative figure in its own army to a civilian; at this point, taghieh actually unlocks a door not to important targets but usual civilians (the primary tactics in the die-back polytics), giving a takfiri an opportunity to effectively confound and twist all diagrams and maps by which a civilian is recognized from an anti-citizen one. Through this door, a takfiri can both destroy civilians (expendable entities of the tree) more effectively on a massive scale and turn their protecting system against them by assimilating them within itself and being assimilated by them.
Faraj is not interested in assassination but harvesting civilians as primary military targets as a part of the die-back mechanism and the strategies it unleashes.
>>> assimilation-as-dissimulation; investing the enemy to empty it out.
Exactly! ‘being assimilated within infidels’ = activating the infidels’ defense mechanism against their own system and entities (activating the overreacting autophagic processes): they commence to fight within their own borders against their own (dis)simulated entities.
>>> So do the Takfiri-under-Taghieh themselves even know what they're doing? Or who they are?
I really don’t know ... it is a complex matter (I appreciate more thoughts from you and Nick on this). Takfiries are very different, a wahhabi Takfirie feeds on Zero-belief point of cognition (have discussed it before), a wahhabi takfiri doesn’t want to know who he/she really is or what he/she is doing, not because that he has brain washed but because he finds ‘belief’ as a redundancy in the true cognition (in its utter virality) of Allah (and the utter submission to Allah) who unlike in Judo-Christian doctrines of Revelation will never be revealed to man, Allah always remains exterior to man and by this merciful exteriority Man can exist both in this world and the next world. (I’ll discuss about this in the piece about Islamic Chronopolytics.). A Wahhabi Takfiri knows that any belief even in his own operation is a manifest of deviation i.e. letting the civilians (all who believe and disbelieve) seed their beliefs on his own belief (Belief as a farm Shaytan)... he is not interested in possession as ‘take over’ but recomposing / messing the structure of civilians, and their cognition patterns.
There is one thing obvious here that Takfiries are eaten by the strategies that they trigger and cannot work as the lines of command for their own operations any more, they need an external line of command and another plane of logistics by which the communication with their movements and cells becomes possible. but in terms of strategy, everything may go astray at any moment: all sides might be consumed; for a Takfiri, it matters a little. The famous Ali’s sword has two heads heralding the fact that in War your are closer to the slashing edge of the sword that your enemy, this is not considered as a danger but a mercy.
A correction: through which participation with strategy becomes impossible ----> becomes possible (+ other corrections)
Posted by: Reza at January 3, 2005 05:52 PMand more corrections: i should never post anything when i'm dead tired.

think reza's paper (Death as a Perversioin) might touch on something: PHILIA. ultimate sorcery: love thine enemy. however, that's not quite right: "enemy" removed from equation. this is not morality, evil vs. good -- it is something ... else (reza can explain way better [once he wakes up!])
Death as a Perversion: Openness and Germinal Death
http://www.ctheory.net/text_file.asp?pick=396
... philia is the engineering space of life, it is constituted of bonds and alliances by and through which desiring machines rise and inter-communicate, and finally engineer compositions of all forms (such as necro-philia). One might warn about the filiative and tendentious nature of philia in the cosmogonic models as what suggested by Empedocles' philosophy and the rest of unitary approaches; but considering philia on a non-transcendental level, philia is neither possessing, nor possessable; it is only contagiously open because the very bonds (of love, friendship, alliance, fondness, etc.) which make it philia, not as a capacity of tendencies but a space of bonds which are pestilentially fond of (the very meaning philia) everything, engineering alliances, transmuting every process and relationship into a perverse love-making ( the common meaning of necrophilia is a distorted apparition of this process) and finally, giving rise to inter-connective compositions, for compositions as Nick Land suggests are unfocused complexities [6] which do not allow the tendencies to gain victory or conquer the composition's complexity by the institutionalizing of economical relationships through composition but affirm them as modes or transient instances of multiplicities imminent to the compos-ition. In such a space (philia) nothing remains pure since tendencies which try to forge purities are all contaminated and infected; they are inter-connected by each other. Philia, even concealed under all appropriated features of Greek tradition, is a space where desiring machines unground rigidities, storm borders and dimensions; and necrophilia is an event germinated through this space, an instance of 'border collapse' and a perverse love (an anonymous plague of energy, excess and multiplying bonds composed as a process of contagion) which does not fail to incite becomings wherever it goes (contagion commotion).
die-back sounds like de-territorialization (NAMify - desertification)? presupposes: re-territorialization? by way of PHILIA?
reminds me of john 15 (true vine | branches - fruit - pruning | husbandman). also, john 15 seems to abrogate all previous commands with a new command (love one another) ==> pointing back to PHILIA
Posted by: northanger at January 3, 2005 08:22 PMjohn 15 uses "agapao" and "agape"
phileo is used in--
John 12:25 He that loveth [phileo] his life shall lose it
John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love [phileo] his own
1 Corinthians 16:22 If any man love [phileo] not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.
anathema = "to consecrate or devote ... to exterminate ... doomed to destruction ... a curse"

Posted by: nick at January 4, 2005 04:10 AMThis time: ‘Who is Hassan II?’
Not Hassan II, the king of morocco but one of the Imams of Isma’ilie after Hassan I (Hassan i-Sabah)
In 1164, following one of the heresies spread by the hidden Imam of Isma’ilie (Abdulah Ibn Maymun) long before the emergence of Isma’ilie (that for moving towards the radical Islam which is nothing but Ghiamat you must take all the possible wrong / unislamic paths) Hassan II in the Isma’ilies’ stronghold Alamut in Iran declared that the time of Islam as a direct path has ended and announced the rise of a new millennium as Qiyamah (Ghiamat or the Apocalypse); to proclaim it, he ordered that Muslims must pray Namaaz by turning their backs to Mecca. During Ramadan, he turned Alamut into a carnal house, asking Muslims to partake in orgies and all kinds of debauchery while his followers read the Quran for people. After sanctifying himself as the true Caliph of muslims (Al Fatemids also officially celebrated him as a caliph) he declared all those who still follow the path of Mohammad and Shariah (Shari’at) are blasphemers and should be stoned, stripped and whipped to death or impaled near the gates of Alamut. After the fall of Alamut, the cult that Hassan II initiated became popular in iran for sometime until some of its beliefs dissolved to other sects like Hojatian (the harbingers of the Apocalypse and Mahdi).
Where is the exact location of Alamut?

"he declared all those who still follow the path of Mohammad and Shariah (Shari’at) are blasphemers and should be stoned, stripped and whipped to death or impaled near the gates of Alamut" - Imagine this suggestion didn't go down too well in certain quarters ...

Note: This Adept guards Tiphareth and tests the heart (which pertains thereto) for its purity. ({GRK:chi}{GRK:alpha}{GRK:theta} {GRK:alpha}{GRK:rho}{GRK:omicron}{GRK:sigma} = pure) six times; 6 being the number of Tiphareth.

northanger - don't want to be total ratty bastard on this, but your Greek letter format is so inefficient its unbelievable - isn't there some way of doing weird fonts in comment boxes? if not, just the names would do
Posted by: nick at January 6, 2005 12:59 PMnick-
listen, spawn of satan, that's a direct quote from the online version of liber 418.
Northanger - I get the impression that you have degenerated into a numbo-junky! Suggest you take a break and breath some fresh air in the Welsh hills. Your elf friends are probably missing you too ;)
Posted by: Tachi at January 7, 2005 02:21 PMTachi - i was a numbo-junky way before this. however, the nummificator must be a form of free-basing.

This is semiotically inexcusable garbage northanger, and you know it - Vauung
Posted by: nick at January 7, 2005 02:59 PMPS. northanger - get a blog for fuxache - that security compound you're part of seems to get more inaccessible by the day (and there's so much interesting stuff there to quibble with)
Posted by: nick at January 7, 2005 04:16 PM>>> may i please prostrate myself in a posture of utter abjection?
yes.
>>> i had never imagined the possibility that i might be questioning such a sublime authority
i was going for the 'attentive benevolent dictator', but 'sublime authority' has a ring to it.
Posted by: northanger at January 7, 2005 07:58 PMOF course, this policy process of 'deforestation' -- making room for the mutated and castrated Self -- has a counterpart polarity that is not even acknowledged by Takfiris and, ironically, may 'appear' within the same 'unlight' as their own strategic modus operandus -- but moving those with Eyes to See toward an altogether different existential condition where the 'forest' appears as a single tree and the virus is easily spotted, exposed, and finally ejected -- cell by cell, naturally and with existing immunities carried within the cell itself. Examine US military strategy and the movement of its gamepieces. The choice will soon be made --- reverse infiltration and unassimiliation -- hastened by events that were already planned for. Chaos isn't a strategy when one is already understood. Strategic Takfiris? Only for the blind...who See nothing.
9 also equals a completed, manifested form. Hence, it is already 'dead' to Life...attempts to take all with it as its 'end' approaches. Resonance is, as they say, catching...

This only happens before diffusion when still there is a chance for extraction, but when assimilation is completed, the cryptogenetic structure of the viroid entity recomposes (not inducing itself as an alien entity or imposing itself upon the cell which irritates the system to trace, spot and finally cleanse the menace) the cell within itself and transcribes itself according to the cell. This process can be identified as overlapping which we discussed a while ago under the ‘Machines are digging’ piece. The Thing hunts in a similar way, it is not a predator but a machine of strategic survival which in its diseased struggle for survival, it countermines the system to overreact to any manifestation of survival as from now on, the system presupposes the equality or the mutual communication between ‘any instance of survival’ and ‘the epidemic distribution of the disease’ (Carpenter’s The Thing and von Trier’s Epidemic). To this extent, decontamination is lethal, it is a hunting line that beside many other self-ruining symptoms is a suicide more than anything else. This process makes the system blind towards its own cells rather than guiding cells and the whole body according to a foreign (viral) politics ... diffusing / participating with the autonomy of the system, not trying to possess (characterized by authority) it. “If the Thing tries to survive at all costs then the survival as the passageway of the pest and the potential space of any function (whether associating to the pest or the immaculate host which passively renders a room for pestilential mechanisms i.e. giving the opportunity for survival to The Thing) must be blocked and extinguished”, the body whispers to itself. The Thing under hypercamouflage passes through the holes it digs into the voluntary / self-aware actions of the body (or the holes already available). When an entity overlaps over another one (without replacing or capturing it), it is nearly impossible to locate the mereologic address of that entity; methods of unassimilation or rejection are introduced to one mereologic address which both entities share (see Casati, Smith and Varzi’s account of mereologic address and the issue of overlapping in social and biological models ... their papers are available at the department of cognitive science and philosophy at Columbia University).
Thank you very much for your comment (hope to see you here more often).
BTW, on ‘9’: see The AOE and the Brotherhood of Nine (http://hyperstition.abstractdynamics.org/archives/003844.html); also: http://www.cold-me.net/mb/messages/236.html
Fascinating discussion (we've been getting a lot of very high quality drop-in contributions recently).
The trends explored here will obviously be decided 'on the battlefield' - but that increasingly means everywhere. The centrality of hypercamouflage to jihadi strategy is already having immense consequences, inducing a wave of 'retromilitarization' in State war machines, where 'teeth' flow back down the 'tail' in a process without obvious terminus (short of the fanging-up of the entire social body).
Saddam Hussein's autodisassembly of his own war machine in the interests of a latent insurgency exemplifies this trend from one side, whilst the moves to harden up US logistics formations through armouring of vehicles and combat training for all personnel complements it from the other.
'Human rights concerns about killings of civilians could relevantly be extended from the empirical level to that of the transcendental, where the eradication in principle of all civilian populations is taking place. The very concept of 'the civilian' is becoming distinctly dated. (Virilio's analysis - despite betraying a somewhat antiquated perspective through terms such as 'endocolonization' - seems to have anticipated this trend).
The US is especially interesting because it remains a 'peripheral' (even 'third world') society in certain respects, marked by a low domestic index of State monopolization of violence, thus allowing retromilitarization from the State pole to connect with an endogeneous paramilitarism already rooted in the 'civilian' population (armed vigilantism and militia movements). As far as militias are concerned, the world ain't seen nothing yet.
Also intriguing that US/Iraq have comparable gun-control environments - perhaps more liberal in Iraq, where every citizen is entitled to own an automatic rifle. [When thinking about the Terminator mythos, note Sarah Connor and her weapons cache in the desert, as well as the Star-Wars-gone-feral dynamics on the other side.]
Nick, fascinating remarks (and polytically attractive for new lines) ... I’ll return to this for sure, after finishing all the archeological stuff
Posted by: Reza at January 9, 2005 01:54 AMVery true, Reza. Once infected, the disease cannot be extracted through triage by an outside source that, due to the nature of an invading organism (not the target 'cell' itself) being able to 'recognize' one of its own (outside) -- which only sends the diseased cell (the micro-battlefield) into a suicidal rampage, projected outwardly, making the 'whole' of one's peception the battlefield. Coupled to the reality that all are potentially 'target cells', strategies of attacking the virus only increase the diffusion and spread of the 'thing' itself.
My remarks presupposed the existence of 'healthy cells' who already 'Know', at least on an instinctual level. Therefore, the polarity alluded to is not, actually, bound or even primarily existing within the 'density of the diseased' -- though one with these 'Eyes to See' may freely enter into the 'diseased realm' and remain immune, also bedecked in 'camo', but with an entirely different 'mission' -- but not to 'save'. The distinction might be made between the cell itself, which is the 'target' - and the ontological orientation of that cell -- which determines one's trajectory vis-a-vis being infected or not. That one may orientate towards a 'not-to-Be' polarity (regardless of 'density') appears to be the prime factor that is considered when one becomes a target and/or host of the virus. The result: a terrestrial blackhole.
I'm working my way through the '9' documents now, so I hope to comment on them after a little more reflection.
