Anna Comnena thought highly of the civilized crusaders fighting for God, but greatly disliked the dirty and wreck-less crusaders. She speaks about their imposing on her empire and being so brutal for no reason. Pretty much she respected the true crusaders, but didn't like the brutal ones going on crusades for money and power.
She was the first female historian.
George was dead hundreds of years before the Crusades so did not participate.
They played a big role IN the Crusades, but I'm not very sure that they actually affected the outcome. The assassins worked for Saladin, the Muslim King, and they would be sent out to attack Christian soldiers under cover. I can't imagine there were so many assassins as to play a major role in the Crusades and how they ended. Even if they did, the Muslim army probably played the most important role. Feel free to edit this, sorry for not being too accurate!

Anna Comnena died not by natural causes but she died horribly, That's what my history teacher said and i believe him more than i believe this stupid website.
