Hamilton Howard "Albert" Fish[1] (May 19, 1870 – January 16, 1936) was an American serial killer, child rapist and cannibal. He was also known as the Gray Man, the Werewolf of Wysteria, the Brooklyn Vampire, the Moon Maniac, and The Boogey Man.[2] Fish once boasted that he "had children in every state",[2] and at one time stated his number of victims was about 100. However, it is not known whether he was referring to rapes or cannibalization, nor is it known if the statement was truthful

Fish was a suspect in at least five murders during his lifetime. He confessed to three murders that police were able to trace to a known homicide, and he confessed to stabbing at least two other people. Fish was apprehended on December 13, 1934, and put on trial for the kidnapping and murder of Grace Budd. He was convicted and executed by electric chair on January 16, 1936, at the age of 65.[4][5][6] His crimes were dramatized in the 2007 film The Gray Man, starring Patrick Bauchau as Fish.

Childhood
Albert Fish was born in Washington, D.C., on May 19, 1870, to Randall (1795 – October 16, 1875) and Ellen (née Howell; 1838–c. 1903[7]) Fish. Fish's father was American, of English ancestry, and his mother was Scots-Irish American.[8] His father was 43 years older than his mother[9] and 75 years old at the time of his birth. Fish was the youngest child and had three living siblings: Walter, Annie, and Edwin. He wished to be known as "Albert" after a dead sibling and to escape the nickname "Ham & Eggs" that he was given at an orphanage in which he spent much of his childhood.

Fish's family had a history of mental illness. His uncle suffered from mania, one of his brothers was confined in a state mental hospital, and his sister Annie was diagnosed with a "mental affliction". Three other relatives were diagnosed with mental illnesses, and his mother had "aural and/or visual hallucinations".[10][11]

Fish's father Randall was a river boat captain and, by 1870, a fertilizer manufacturer.[9] The elder Fish died in 1875 at Washington's Sixth Street Station of a heart attack. The Congressional Cemetery records show that he died on October 16, 1875, and was buried on October 19, 1875, in grave R96/89. Fish's mother then put her son into Saint John's Orphanage in Washington, where he was frequently abused. Fish began to enjoy the physical pain that the beatings brought.[12] Of his time at the orphanage, Fish remarked, "I was there 'til I was nearly nine, and that's where I got started wrong. We were unmercifully whipped. I saw boys doing many things they should not have done."

By 1880, Fish's mother had a government job and was able to remove Fish from the orphanage. In 1882, at age 12, he began a homosexual relationship with a telegraph boy. The youth introduced Fish to such practices as urolagnia (drinking urine) and coprophagia (eating feces). Fish began visiting public baths where he could watch other boys UnCloth and spent a great portion of his weekends on these visits.[12] Throughout his life, he would write obscene letters to women whose names he acquired from classified advertising and matrimonial agencies

1890–1918: Early adulthood and criminal history

By 1890, Fish arrived in New York City, and he said at that point he became a prostitute and began raping young boys. In 1898, his mother arranged a marriage for him with Anna Mary Hoffman, who was nine years his junior.[11][13][14][15] They had six children: Albert, Anna, Gertrude, Eugene, John, and Henry Fish.[11]

Throughout 1898, Fish worked as a house painter. He said he continued molesting children, mostly boys younger than age six. He later recounted an incident in which a male lover took him to a waxworks museum, where Fish was fascinated by a bisection of a penis. After that, he became obsessed with sexual mutilation.[13][16] In 1903, he was arrested for grand larceny, convicted, and incarcerated in Sing Sing.

In about 1919, Fish stabbed an intellectually disabled boy in Georgetown, Washington, D.C..[19] He chose people who were either mentally handicapped or African-American as his victims, explaining that he assumed these people would not be missed when killed.[20] Fish would later claim to occasionally pay boys to procure him other children.[21] Fish tortured, mutilated, and murdered young children with his "implements of Hell": a meat cleaver, a butcher knife, and a small handsaw.[22]

On July 11, 1924, Fish found eight-year-old Beatrice Kiel playing alone on her parents' farm on Staten Island, New York. He offered her money to come and help him look for rhubarb. She was about to leave the farm when her mother chased Fish away. Fish left but returned later to the Kiels' barn, where he tried to sleep but was discovered by Beatrice's father and forced to leave. During 1924, the 54-year-old Fish, suffering from psychosis, felt that God was commanding him to torture and sexually mutilate children.[11]

Shortly before his abduction of Grace Budd, Fish attempted to test his "implements of Hell" on a child he had been molesting named Cyril Quinn. Quinn and his friend were playing box ball on a sidewalk when Fish asked them if they had eaten lunch. When they said that they had not, he invited them into his apartment for sandwiches. While the two boys were wrestling on Fish's bed, they dislodged his mattress; underneath was a knife, a small handsaw, and a meat cleaver. They became frightened and ran out of the apartment

Fish remarried on February 6, 1930, in Waterloo, New York, to Estella Wilcox but divorced after only one week.[24] Fish was arrested in May 1930 for "sending an obscene letter to a woman who answered an advertisement for a maid."[25] Following that arrest and one in 1931, he was sent to the Bellevue psychiatric hospital for observation

Murder of Grace Budd
Grace Budd (1918–1928)
On May 25, 1928, Fish saw a classified advertisement in the Sunday edition of the New York World that read, "Young man, 18, wishes position in country. Edward Budd, 406 West 15th Street." On May 28, Fish, then 58 years old, visited the Budd family in Manhattan under the pretense of hiring Edward; he later confessed that he planned to tie Edward up, mutilate him, and leave him to bleed to death. Fish introduced himself as Frank Howard, a farmer from Farmingdale, New York. He promised to hire Budd and his friend Willie, and said he would send for them in a few days. Fish failed to show up, but he sent a telegram to the Budd family apologizing and set a later date.

When Fish returned, he met Edward's younger sister Grace Budd. He apparently changed his intended victim from Edward to Grace and quickly made up a story about having to attend his niece's birthday party. He convinced the parents, Delia Flanagan and Albert Budd I, to let Grace accompany him to the party that evening. The elder Albert Budd was a porter for the United States Equitable Life Assurance Society. Grace had a younger sister, Beatrice, two older brothers, Edward and George, and a younger brother, Albert Budd II. Grace left with Fish that day but never returned.[27]

The police arrested 66-year-old superintendent Charles Edward Pope on September 5, 1930, as a suspect in Grace's disappearance, accused by Pope's estranged wife.[5] He spent 108 days in jail between his arrest and trial on December 22, 1930.[28] He was found not guilty.

Letter to the mother of Grace Budd
In November 1934, an anonymous letter was sent to Grace's parents which ultimately led the police to Fish. Mrs. Budd was illiterate and could not read the letter herself, so she had her son read it to her.[29] The unaltered letter (complete with Fish's misspellings and grammatical errors) reads:[11]


''My dear Mrs Budd, In 1894 a friend of mine shipped as a deck hand on the steamer Tacoma, Capt John Davis. They sailed from San Francisco to Hong Kong China. On arriving there he and two others went ashore and got drunk. When they returned the boat was gone. At that time there was a famine in China. Meat of any kind was from $1 to 3 Dollars a pound. So great was the suffering among the very poor that all children under 12 were sold to the Butchers to be cut up and sold for food in order to keep others from starving. A boy or girl under 14 was not safe in the street. You could go in any shop and ask for steak – chops – or stew meat. Part of the naked body of a boy or girl would be brought out and just what you wanted cut from it. A boy or girls behind which is the sweetest part of the body and sold as veal cutlet brought the highest price. John staid there so long he acquired a taste for human flesh. On his return to N.Y. he stole two boys one 7 one 11. Took them to his home stripped them naked tied them in a closet then burned everything they had on. Several times every day and night he spanked them – tortured them – to make their meat good and tender. First he killed the 11 yr old boy, because he had the fattest ass and of course the most meat on it. Every part of his body was cooked and eaten except Head – bones and guts. He was roasted in the oven, (all of his ass) boiled, broiled, fried, stewed. The little boy was next, went the same way. At that time I was living at 409 E 100 St, rear – right side. He told me so often how good human flesh was I made up my mind to taste it. On Sunday June the 3 – 1928 I called on you at 406 W 15 St. Brought you pot cheese – strawberries. We had lunch. Grace sat in my lap and kissed me. I made up my mind to eat her, on the pretense of taking her to a party. You said Yes she could go. I took her to an empty house in Westchester I had already picked out. When we got there, I told her to remain outside. She picked wild flowers. I went upstairs and stripped all my clothes off. I knew if I did not I would get her blood on them. When all was ready I went to the window and called her. Then I hid in a closet until she was in the room. When she saw me all naked she began to cry and tried to run down stairs. I grabbed her and she said she would tell her mama. First I stripped her naked. How she did kick – bite and scratch. I choked her to death then cut her in small pieces so I could take my meat to my rooms, cook and eat it. How sweet and tender her little ass was roasted in the oven. It took me 9 days to eat her entire body. I did not Bleep her, though, I could of [sic] had I wished. She died a virgin.''
Wow those were his real words , .....

Police investigated the letter. The story concerning "Capt. Davis" and the "famine" in Hong Kong could not be verified. The part of the letter concerning the murder of Grace, however, was found to be accurate in its description of the kidnapping and subsequent events, although it was impossible to confirm whether or not Fish had actually eaten parts of Grace's body.

Capture
The letter was delivered in an envelope that had a small hexagonal emblem with the letters "N.Y.P.C.B.A." representing "New York Private Chauffeur's Benevolent Association". A janitor at the company told the police he had taken some of the stationery home but left it at his rooming house at 200 East 52nd Street when he moved out. The landlady of the rooming house said that Fish checked out of that room a few days earlier. She said that Fish's son sent him money and he asked her to hold his next check for him. William F. King was the chief investigator for the case. He waited outside the room until Fish returned. Fish agreed to go to headquarters for questioning, then brandished a razor blade. King disarmed Fish and took him to police headquarters.

Fish made no attempt to deny the murder of Grace Budd, saying that he meant to go to the house to kill Grace's brother Edward.[33] Fish said it "never even entered [his] head" to rape the girl,[34] but he later claimed to his attorney that, while kneeling on Grace's chest and strangling her, he did have two involuntary ejaculations. This information was used at trial to make the claim the kidnapping was sexually motivated, thus avoiding any mention of cannibalism

HORRIBLE HISTORY OF HOW MILLIONS WERE PUT TO DEATH IN AUSCHWITZ-BERKENAU IN NAZI CAMP.

HORRIBLE HISTORY OF HOW MILLIONS WERE PUT TO DEATH IN AUSCHWITZ-BERKENAU IN NAZI CAMP.

 horrible history of how millions were put to death in Auschwitz-Berkenau in Nazi camp, and Auschwitz was the pinnacle of Germany's industrialized genocide. When Soviet soldiers poured into Auschwitz in January 1945, they encountered warehouses filled with the belongings of people who were already dead, murdered by the Nazis.

Today, January 27, marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Berkenau. Millions were put to death in Nazi camps, and Auschwitz was the pinnacle of Germany's industrialized genocide.

We must never forget or allow such again. 

Auschwitz accounted for more than 1.1 million deaths (some discount that number down to "just 600,000") under the direction of Lieutenant Colonel Rudolf Höss and Commandant Arthur Liebehenschel. 

Think of it:  about 300 to 600 deaths per day.

When Soviet soldiers poured into Auschwitz in January 1945, they encountered warehouses filled with the belongings of people who were already dead, murdered by the Nazis:  Eighty-eight pounds of eyeglasses, hundreds of prosthetic limbs, twelve thousand pots and pans and forty-four thousand pairs of shoes among other things.

Shamefully, while this should be spoken of with honesty, quiet reverence and solemn consideration, many today trample the history of their suffering underfoot by falsely calling much lesser things genocides, holocausts and Nazis.


Tarring and Feathering an Act of Humiliation and Intimidation

Tarring and Feathering an Act of Humiliation and Intimidation

Tarring and Feathering
An Act of Humiliation and Intimidation

A man who has been badly tarred and feathered seeks medical help, date unknown. Tarring and feathering is a form of public torture and punishment used to enforce unofficial justice or revenge.

The victim would be stripped naked or stripped to the waist. Wood tar (sometimes hot) was then either poured or painted onto the person while they were immobilized. The victim then either had feathers thrown on them or was rolled around on a pile of feathers so that they stuck to the tar.

dragged him from his house, stripped him of his clothes, and poured hot tar over his body which scalded his skin. They then broke open pillows and covered him in feathers. They placed him on a cart and paraded him through the town of Boston. They passed the Old State House, the Old South Meeting House and the Liberty Tree. Along the way he was severely whipped and beaten with sticks and other objects. The crowd demanded he curse the royal governor and the king, which he refused. After being subjected to further beatings and whippings and threats of more bodily harm (including the threat of cutting off his ears), he ultimately gave in and cursed them. The crowd then forced him to drink tea until he vomited. He then was beaten more until he was finally dropped back at his home after the five hour ordeal. He survived the punishment but would carry the scars of that night for the rest of his life. When removing the tar from his body, the doctors noted that “flesh comes off his back in stakes.” The notorious event was immortalized in a cartoon by Philip Dawe in England entitled “The Bostonians Paying the Excise-Man, or, Tarring & Feathering”.

These violent means of punishing Loyalists and tax collectors was meant to intimidate opponents of their cause but increasingly came to be viewed as appalling forms of anarchy and mob tyranny. 


Many Bostonians recoiled in anger and fear at the brutality of John Malcom’s punishment, and the Sons of Liberty attempted to curtail such punishments in the future. After this, the patriots of Boston stopped tarring and feathering people even as other areas in Massachusetts and other colonies continued to do so over the next few years.

While the use of tar and feathers was popular amongst patriots in the lead up to the war, there is at least one instance of British soldiers using it on a patriot. In March of 1775, patriot Thomas Ditson was caught attempting to buy a musket from a British soldier in the 47th Regiment of Foot in Boston. Ditson was ordered by a British officer to be tarred and feathered for his offense. After taking his shirt off and tarring and feathering him, he was paraded through Boston along with British fifers and drummers who mockingly played “Yankee Doodle.”

There were dozens of tarring and feathering incidents in 1775 and 1776, but after 1776, there are very few recorded instances of it happening. One of the last recorded incidents also happened to be the only time it immediately preceded an execution. In Charleston, South Carolina in December of 1776, a “dissenting minister” named John Roberts was tarred and feathered by a large mob. Afterwards, the mob erected a gibbet and Roberts was hanged. They then torched the gibbet which, along with Roberts, were “consumed to ashes.”

As the war progressed, such protests and demonstrations died down. The use of tar and feathers had been used effectively by patriots as a powerful symbol both locally and abroad as to who held power in colonial communities. However, the wielding of such intimidating tactics made many American colonists and leaders uncomfortable. Many of the founders feared that such actions would lead to mob rule or “mobocracy.” These fears were given further justification when they witnessed the violence that grew out of the French Revolution shortly after the Revolutionary War.

Similar tactics of tarring and feathering were used by the British in Ireland in the Irish Rebellion of 1798 on suspected rebels in a brutal tactic known as “pitch-capping.” Here, hot tar would be placed on the top of a person’s head and then a cap was placed on top this.  After the tar cooled, the cap would be ripped off, tearing off portions of the person’s scalp.  The effect left the person with permanent scarring and a similar warning to those who would defy British rule.

After the Revolutionary War, the use of tarring and feathering as a form of mob justice continued to occur sporadically up through the 19th and 20th centuries in America. Among the more famous instances was the tarring and feathering of Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints leader, Joseph Smith in 1832. African Americans, suffragists, and anti-war supporters were among those tarred and feathered over the centuries. Despite its continuous use, the cruel action is still mostly associated with the patriot fervor of the 1760s and 1770s colonial America. Effective as it was in the colonial era, to this day, the term tarring and feathering is still used as a shorthand of the frightening specter of the power of mob rule in American politics.

Violette Szabo was a young British woman who served as a secret agent during World War II. She joined the Special Operations Executive (SOE), a British organization that conducted espionage and sabotage missions in occupied Europe.

Violette Szabo was a young British woman who served as a secret agent during World War II. She joined the Special Operations Executive (SOE), a British organization that conducted espionage and sabotage missions in occupied Europe.

Szabo's mission was to aid the French Resistance in sabotaging German communications and transportation lines. In June 1944, she was sent to France to carry out her mission.

Szabo's work with the French Resistance was dangerous and required her to constantly move from place to place. However, she was able to establish strong relationships with members of the Resistance and helped to coordinate their efforts.

In July 1944, Szabo and her group were betrayed by a collaborator and ambushed by the Germans. Despite being outnumbered and outgunned, Szabo fought back fiercely, allowing some of her comrades to escape. She was eventually captured and taken to a prison in Germany.

Szabo's refusal to give up any information about her mission or her fellow agents earned her respect and admiration from her captors and fellow prisoners. However, she was eventually transferred to Ravensbrück concentration camp, where she was executed in January 1945 at the age of 23.

Mogadishu: 1993, US forces were killed while trying to capture the Somali warlord who claimed leadership after an ethnic Civil War which led to the death of an estimated 300,000.




Battle of Mogadishu, battle between U.S. forces and Somali militia fighters in Mogadishu, Somalia, on October 3–4, 1993. It marked the end of a U.S.-led military intervention in Somalia, which had begun in 1992.

Mogadishu, Somalia
Mogadishu, Somalia
U.S. forces had entered Somalia to protect the distribution of food aid, which was being hampered by local warlords. The Americans decided they had to neutralize the warlord they identified as the worst offender, Muhammad Farah Aydid. Major General William Garrison was tasked with leading a raid by U.S. special operations forces on the Olympic Hotel in Mogadishu, where Aydid was thought to be hiding.

Landed from helicopters, an assault group secured the hotel and took 24 prisoners—although not Aydid, who was absent. Special operations forces in a column of vehicles following to extract them from the hotel were delayed by Somali road blocks and subjected to continual fire. Two Black Hawk helicopters were shot down by rocket-propelled grenades—an incident dramatized in the film Black Hawk Down (2001)—leaving surviving aircrew at risk at the helicopter crash sites. Most of the troops fought through to the first crash site, but they were then pinned down under heavy fire. The troops could only shelter in nearby houses and wait for morning. Two U.S. soldiers reached the second crash site and fought off Somalis fighters for a short time before they were killed and the helicopter pilot captured.

The next morning a U.S. and UN relief force of about 100 vehicles fought its way to the first crash site and extracted survivors, fighting a running battle every step of the way. The bodies of dead Americans were dragged through the streets by Somalis. The battle was considered a fiasco for U.S. forces, and it effectively spelled the end of the U.S. mission in Somalia, with U.S. President Bill Clinton pulling troops out soon afterward.

U.S. casualties in the Battle of Mogadishu numbered 18 dead and 84 wounded among fewer than 200 personnel involved in the initial assault; perhaps 700 to 1,500 Somalis died (the total is unknown). There were also 13 casualties among UN personnel.

To be honest with you, I struggle to look at this photograph just to think of all the pain and suffering these
women would be subjugated for the rest of their lives just for being intimate with German troops. I have said this once, and i will say this again, not all German troops were heartless murdering robot Nazis and most were just serving their country just as Britain of America and most were conscripted anyway. We never really access that part of History however as the allies won, meaning Axis troops are always painted in a dark light. Do not get me

The 65th anniversary of the D-day landings this week is an occasion to revisit joyful pictures of the liberation of France in 1944. But among the cheering images there are also shocking ones. These show the fate of women accused of "collaboration horizontale". It is impossible to forget Robert Capa's fallen-Madonna image of a shaven-headed young woman, cradling her baby, implicitly the result of a relationship with a German soldier.

The punishment of shaving a woman's head had biblical origins. In Europe, the practice dated back to the dark ages, with the Visigoths. During the middle ages, this mark of shame, denuding a woman of what was supposed to be her most seductive feature, was commonly a punishment for adultery. Shaving women's heads as a mark of retribution and humiliation was reintroduced in the 20th century. After French troops occupied the Rhineland in 1923, German women who had relations with them later suffered the same fate. And during the second world war, the Nazi state issued orders that German women accused of sleeping with non-Aryans or foreign prisoners employed on farms should also be publicly punished in this way.

Also during the Spanish civil war, Falangists had shaved the heads of women from republican families, treating them as if they were prostitutes. Those on the extreme right had convinced themselves that the left believed in free love. (The most famous victim in fiction is Maria, the lover of Robert Jordan in Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls.)

It may seem strange that head-shaving, essentially a rightwing phenomenon, should have become so widespread during the leftist liberation euphoria in France in 1944. But many of the tondeurs, the head-shavers, were not members of the resistance. Quite a few had been petty collaborators themselves, and sought to divert attention from their own lack of resistance credentials. Yet resistance groups could also be merciless towards women. In Brittany it is said that a third of those civilians killed in reprisals were women. And threats of head-shaving had been made in the resistance underground press since 1941.

There was a strong element of vicarious eroticism among the tondeurs and their crowd, even though the punishment they were about to inflict symbolised the desexualisation of their victim. This "ugly carnival" became the pattern soon after D-day. Once a city, town or village had been liberated by the allies or the resistance, the shearers would get to work. In mid-June, on the market day following the capture of the town of Carentan, a dozen women were shorn publicly. In Cherbourg on 14 July, a truckload of young women, most of them teenagers, were driven through the streets. In Villedieu, one of the victims was a woman who had simply been a cleaner in the local German military headquarters.

Many French people as well as allied troops were sickened by the treatment meted out to these women accused of collaboration horizontale with German soldiers. A large number of the victims were prostitutes who had simply plied their trade with Germans as well as Frenchmen, although in some areas it was accepted that their conduct was professional rather than political. Others were silly teenagers who had associated with German soldiers out of bravado or boredom. In a number of cases, female schoolteachers who, living alone, had German soldiers billeted on them, were falsely denounced for having been a "mattress for the boches". Women accused of having had an abortion were also assumed to have consorted with Germans.

Many victims were young mothers, whose husbands were in German prisoner-of-war camps. During the war, they often had no means of support, and their only hope of obtaining food for themselves and their children was to accept a liaison with a German soldier. As the German writer Ernst Jünger observed from the luxury of the Tour d'Argent restaurant in Paris, "food is power"

Jealousy masqueraded as moral outrage, because people envied the food and entertainment these women had received as a result of their conduct. When Arletty, the great actor and star of the film Les Enfants du Paradis, died in 1992, she received admiring obituaries that did not mention the rumour that she had her head shaved at the liberation. These obituaries even passed over her controversial love affair with a Luftwaffe officer. But letters to some newspapers revealed a lingering bitterness nearly 50 years later. It was not the fact that Arletty had slept with the enemy which angered them, but the way she had eaten well in the Hôtel Ritz while the rest of France was hungry.

After the humiliation of a public head-shaving, the tondues - the shorn women - were often paraded through the streets on the back of a lorry, occasionally to the sound of a drum as if it were a tumbril and France was reliving the revolution of 1789. Some were daubed with tar, some stripped half naked, some marked with swastikas in paint or lipstick. In Bayeux, Churchill's private secretary Jock Colville recorded his reactions to one such scene. "I watched an open lorry drive past, to the accompaniment of boos and catcalls from the French populace, with a dozen miserable women in the back, every hair on their heads shaved off. They were in tears, hanging their heads in shame. While disgusted by this cruelty, I reflected that we British had known no invasion or occupation for some 900 years. So we were not the best judges."

The American historian Forrest Pogue wrote of the victims that "their look, in the hands of their tormentors, was that of a hunted animal". Colonel Harry D McHugh, the commander of an American infantry regiment near Argentan, reported: "The French were rounding up collaborators, cutting their hair off and burning it in huge piles, which one could smell miles away. Also, women collaborators were forced to run the gauntlet and were really beaten."

Elsewhere some men who had volunteered to work in German factories had their heads shaved, but that was an exception. Women almost always were the first targets, because they offered the easiest and most vulnerable scapegoats, particularly for those men who had joined the resistance at the last moment. Altogether, at least 20,000 women are known to have had their heads shaved. But the true figure may well be higher, considering that some estimates put the number of French children fathered by members of the Wehrmacht as high as 80,000.

shortly after a suic*de attack in Afghanistan, 2012 This attack took place in 2012.



The attack was carried out by a man who approached a group of US soldiers and Afghan policemen and detonated a b*mb. At least 10
people were killed, 3 of them being US soldiers.

The soldier above, who is injured in his leg, is likely disoriented and paranoid after such an attack and is yelling at a cameraman to keep his distance. Suic*de attacks, despite stereotypes, are not only used by radical or extremist Muslims. Suic*de warfare can be seen among many different cultures and regions across the world. To die intentionally during combat in a strategicmanner can be due to several reasons. 

Examples can be
seen in the following:

1. Patriotic - to inspire others to fight in their death.
2. Strategic reasoning - to get an explosive device as close to the hostile as possible.
3. Religious - some people believe that if they die intentionally, they will be martyred and will go to a higher plain of existence.
4. Limited options- lack of equipment can lead to extreme methods used.
Countries that have used these tactics or intentional death to gain military advantage intensively include, but are not limited to: Ireland, Japan, some countries from the Middle East, the Philippines and the Soviet Union (animalsb*mbs). Some smaller political, radical or militant groups
also have used intentional death as a method of warfare. Different attack methods can be used outside of
explosives.

These methods change throughout history depending on different factors. This article is to highlight this in a
general historical perspective.
