1. Brutus (Assassination of Caesar)

Brutus was the son of a not-so-famous politician in Rome . His mother was also one of Caesar's many mistresses. So there is some evidence that maybe even Caesar was his real father. But some people doubted this because Caesar was only 15 years old when Brutus was born.

When Brutus was young his uncle Carpi adopted him. When Cato, a famous Roman statesman and military strategist, was governor of Cyprus, Brutus began his political career and became Cato's assistant. During this period he quickly became a prominent figure by granting usury loans. After he first entered the Senate, he joined the conservative opposition to the Senate, which was then ruled by Caesar, Pompey, and Crassus. He hated Pompey very much because Pompey assassinated his father in 77 BC.

But in the Roman civil war between Pompeii and Caesar that broke out in 49 BC, Brutus, as a representative of the conservatives, defected to his old enemy Pompey. After Pompeii was defeated miserably in the Battle of Phaselas in Greece, Brutus wrote an apology to Caesar and was quickly forgiven. Caesar later called him into his camp.

Caesar liked Brutus very much and respected his opinions. But Brutus, like some other senators, was not satisfied with the status quo of the Roman Republic, because Caesar was already a dictator at that time. So Brutus, his cousin, and some others began to band together to plot against Caesar. In 44 BC, under the planning of Brutus, a group of senators (including Brutus) assassinated Caesar on the steps of the theater in Pompeii. Caesar, the famous dictator's last words before his death, was still lamenting why Brutus killed him. Caesar treated him like a son, and maybe Brutus was his son.

But the people at that time loved the dead Caesar. So the new leader Antonius decided to take advantage of the situation. Brutus and others were therefore charged with treason. They had to flee to the east.

In Athens, Brutus raised money to recruit soldiers to form a Roman legion. In the spring of 42 BC, Brutus' army returned to Rome. According to Greek historians, Brutus was tortured by nightmares because he dreamed of Caesar every day during the battle, and there were also some omens indicating that Brutus would fail in this war, so Brutus The morale of the Sri Lankan army is very low. Brutus was ultimately defeated and committed suicide after leaving his last words: "I will escape, yes, but this time not with my feet but with my hands."

2. Fanny Kaplan (Assassination of Lenin)

Kaplan’s full name is Fanny Yefimovna Kaplan, who was born in Volyn, Ukraine in 1890 Save a Jewish family.

After the Russian Revolution of 1905, Kaplan began to get close to the anarchists and began to participate in their various activities. She used the pseudonym "Dora" when she was active in the circle of revolutionaries. Kaplan first participated in an assassination attempt in 1906, when she was 16 years old. That time, she planned and organized to participate in the assassination of the chief executive of Kiev, but it failed and she was arrested. The Kyiv authorities' military court sentenced her to life-long hard labor. Therefore, at a young age, Kaplan began to experience the heaviness and pain of life behind bars very early.

In prison, Kaplan met Maria Spiridonovaya, a famous Russian right-wing Socialist Revolutionary Party activist. Kaplan's political thoughts began to shift from anarchism to the Socialist Revolutionary Party. human perspective. After the Russian February Revolution in 1917, she was amnesty and released from prison. She was 27 years old at the time. In that year, the Russian October Revolution broke out, which shocked the world. The political ideas of the Socialist Revolutionaries were sharply opposed to the Bolsheviks, and Kaplan naturally hated Lenin.

On August 30, 1918, a workers’ rally was held at the Mikhailson Factory in the Zamoskretsky District of Moscow. Lenin, the leader of the Soviet regime, delivered a speech at the meeting. After the meeting, Lenin was assassinated at the gate of the factory. The killer Kaplan shot three bullets into Lenin's body!

After the attack, Kaplan was arrested on Serpukhov Street outside the factory.

Kaplan was shot three days after his arrest. The execution took place inside the Kremlin. After Kaplan's death, her body was stuffed into an iron bucket, poured with gasoline, and burned instead of being buried.

Recently, historians pointed out that Kaplan became almost completely blind after being sentenced to hard labor at the age of 16. Despite treatment, his vision has not recovered. Whether she was actually the gunman who assassinated Lenin is debatable.

Perhaps, there are other inside stories and hidden secrets about Lenin’s assassination.

3. Yigal Amir (Assassination of Rabin)

Igal Amir was only 25 years old when he committed the crime of assassinating Rabin. His father was a Jewish jurist and his mother was a kindergarten teacher. In the eyes of outsiders, he has developed good habits of being polite and law-abiding since he was a child.

However, when Amir grew up, he became an extreme Zionist, and the school he attended was also a Jewish university. Therefore, he does not want to hear that Jews and Palestinians can coexist peacefully on this land, and he deeply abhors the terrorist actions provoked by Palestinian extremists from time to time. He believes that the root of all evil lies in Prime Minister Rabin's peace negotiations with the Palestinians.

Igal Amir is well-known among the far right, but only the Israeli security services know nothing about him. He is the small leader of the "Eyal" terrorist organization, and the person commanding him behind the scenes is a 24-year-old madman named Avisha Raviv.

In August 1993, Rabin and Arafat signed the "Oslo Accords", which made Israeli right-wingers extremely hostile to him. "Eyal" has been preparing to assassinate Rabin ever since.

Although there were no guards at Rabin's residence, the Amir brothers and their accomplices scouted every alley and corner here, looking for the doorway leading to the roof, and inspected all directions from which they could hit Rabin. In order to collect information, they bought various books on political assassinations, and the book on the assassination of President Kennedy was placed in the most conspicuous place on their bookshelf.

From then until Rabin was assassinated on November 4, 1995, the former Israeli Prime Minister appeared at the murderer's shooting point eight times. But every assassination attempt failed due to various reasons.

In the end, "Eyal" decided to send a kamikaze killer for a personal attack. And this kamikaze killer is Amir.

On November 4, 1995, Amir finally took advantage of Rabin's speech and shot the evil bullet into his body. Rabin died after being rushed to the hospital. Amir was also arrested on the spot by the Israeli security agency "Sin Bet".

During the interrogation process, Igal insisted that God ordered him to do it. It was a completely personal act and had nothing to do with others. However, the "Shin Bet" eventually arrested the murderer's brother Haggai Amir and more than a dozen other accomplices in Rabin's assassination.

Igal Amir was sentenced to life in prison and is still serving his sentence in prison. Not long ago, according to Israeli media, Amir had married one of his female admirers from Russia over the phone.

4. James Earl Rey (assassinated Martin Luther King)

The person who murdered Martin Luther King, the famous black human rights activist in the United States, was not a fanatic not a white racist but a fool. His name was James Earl Rey.

The narration from Rey’s father proves that the young Rey is a completely honest and clumsy boy, and his academic performance is a mess. In his youth, Rey was still an honest man with weak intelligence. He was sent to Germany for military service. Because his IQ was too low, the military drove Rey back early on the grounds that he was "unfit for service."

He is also a frequent visitor to the police station. Due to family financial difficulties, Rey once dropped out of school. Like those out-of-school children from poor family backgrounds, without exception, he wandered around the "jianghu" at an early age and fell into the street as a bandit. But every time he acted clumsily, he was caught by the police with almost no results. The most classic time was when he robbed a woman, but the woman refused to hand over the money to him. During the fight, he was accidentally pushed out of the window by the woman and fell. He had to lie there waiting for the police to arrest him.

He was such a naturally clumsy person. One day in January 1976, he was hiding in a motel opposite the Lorraine Hotel where Martin Luther King was staying. The moment Martin appeared on the balcony, A well-aimed bullet was suddenly fired, killing him.

After his arrest, James Rey was sentenced to prison and served his time in prison. But his bumbling performance wasn't over yet.

He tried to escape from prison several times, but unlike other escapees who rushed out desperately, he hid himself in the prison to prevent others from discovering him. Once he hid on the ceiling for many days. Just when everyone thought he had really escaped, he was so hungry on the ceiling that he had to sound the alarm and let people rescue him. And if he had not attempted to escape, he might have been released on bail long ago. As a result, he earned the nickname "the clumsiest prison escaper" among his fellow inmates.

In 1998, Rey, who was over 70 years old and suffering from liver cancer, passed away. Controversy also arose over whether he killed Martin Luther King.

Because, when Rey was dying, Martin Luther King's son asked this "enemy": "I want to ask you a question: "Did you kill my father?" Rey replied: "No, I didn't kill your father..." In addition, the most confusing thing is that the fingerprints left in Rey's national number book were fake from the beginning.

In the early morning of April 26, the two fugitives crossed the Potomac River and were finally discovered by the army. Soldiers surrounded the barn where Wilkes and Herold were sleeping.

Herold surrendered, but Wilkes planned to make a last stand.

After a long stalemate, the army began to burn the warehouses. A gunshot was heard in the light of the fire. Soldiers dragged Wilkes out of the barn and found a gunshot wound to his neck, which had broken his cervical spine. Some historians believe that Wilkes actually shot himself. Before he died, the murderer said: "Tell mother, tell mother, I died for the motherland." He also said: "It's useless, it's useless." Since then, there have been legends that he fell into the army. What was in his hands was actually someone else's, and Wilkes was still alive. Legend has it that he was seen in Europe and India. Others say Wilkes wandered around Texas and Mexico before committing suicide in Enid, Oklahoma, in 1903.
