The Animal Liberation Front is a terrorist group that intends to change international policy for animal use and treatment. The group has successfully damaged businesses where animal abuse took place, and freed animal victims of abuse.

The interesting aspect of the ALF is that they have taken a vow not to bring injury to any form of life, and therefore take a careful…

bombers have killed hundreds in Cameroon and Nigeria. Women and children are being kidnapped and held hostage for Boko Haram soldiers to rape.

At about 9.30 on August 21, 1986, rumbling sounds lasting 15-20 seconds brought people out of their Cameroon homes in the small village of Nios. Not minutes after, a lethal gas cloud pooled out of nearby Lake Nyos and spread over the town.
