I always imagined that women would make the best assassins. People tend to put their guard down when there is a pretty girl around. And they can get men alone. They all just so happen to get heart attacks around her. She’s that good!
They also lured soldiers to the woods under the pretense of a romantic overture and then killed them. Oversteegen would approach the soldiers in taverns and bars and ask them to "go for a stroll" in the forest.
Oh, cool. I knew about Sophie Scholl, but I didn't know about her.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannie_Schaft is probably more famous.

On NPR one time there was a spy on a program, and they said spies almost never carry weapons, and when they do it's usually a woman because people don't expect it and also there is such a huge taboo about touching a woman's purse that they can put it there and be safe.
That's a plot point in The Sting
Just these weekends saw Butch Classify and Sundance kid for the first time. Great movie
Now the Sting is definitely gonna be my next movie to watch!
And Killing Eve
Yeah.... I will go along with a lot of shit if I think there's a chance I'm going to get laid. Pretty lady assassin is definitely the way to go if anyone is looking to have me killed.
