Hassan became famous for creating the Order of Assassins: a fanatically devoted group of young men known as the fedayeen, " those who sacrifice themselves."
哈桑因创立萨辛派 (Order of Assassins)而成名:一群狂热、忠诚的年轻人,称为“敢死队”(fedayeen),意为“自我牺牲者”。
Although a United Nations brokered ceasefire had been in place since July 1949, Arab insurgents or fedayeen continued to launch attacks into Israeli territory.
Jordan descended into civil war on the 17th of September when Hussein ordered loyal troops to crush the fedayeen in his capital of Amman, resulting in Syrian intervention on behalf of the Palestinians.
Succumbing to diplomatic pressure from the United States, Ben-Gurion agreed to withdraw from the Sinai in return for US recognition of Israel's right to retaliate against further fedayeen attacks from Egypt.
Foreign Minister Golda Meir represented Israel at the UN, arguing that the Israeli occupation of the Sinai peninsula was an act of self-defence after the fedayeen repeatedly attacked Israel from Egyptian bases.
