3. TALIBAN The Afghan chapter of the Taliban, known simply as the Taliban, are omnipresent in illicit activities. Ranging from drug trafficking to human trafficking, extortion,etc. they have an annual revenue of almost $400 million annually. An Islamist fundamental group in Afghanistan, Mohammed Omar is the founding member and has been the spiritual leader ever since its inception in 1994. The September 11, 2001 attacks on the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York was carried out by the Taliban. The Taliban has its origins in the struggle against the Soviet that the US carried out on Afghan soil. The Taliban was mobilized by the USA (and trained by ISI) in order to liberate Afghanistan from the clutches of the Soviet Union. Alleged to have been the perpetrator to some of the most heinous human rights violations (ranging from ethnic cleansing, raping women, etc) in Afghanistan (while in power) the Taliban are certainly one of the most deadly terror groups in the world at present.

4. BOKO HARAM A militant Islamist group in Nigeria, this group is known to receive funding from Al-Qaeda. Extremely vocal about their intolerance towards western education, Boko Haram had recently been in the news for the abduction of around 200 Nigerian girls. Boko Haram literally means “western education is sin”. Boko Haram has been alleged to have on their hands a 5000-civilians kill number between 2009 and 2014. Boko Haram, originally founded as a Sunni Islamic group, have been advocating the extremely intolerant Sharia law in places of their stronghold. Threatening to overthrow the government, which they as becoming extremely open to the western culture, Boko Haram is known to spread terror by killing people who indulge in non-islamic practices, eg drink alcohol. The founder of the sect, Mohammed Yusuf, had said in an interview that the theory about the Earth being round should be rejected as it had been propagated by the west. An incapability on the Nigerian government’s part to deal with their growing militancy, Boko Haram has also been responsible for bombing the UN headquarters in Abuja in June, 2011.

5. HEZBOLLAH A Shia’ist militant group based in Lebanon, they are considered to be more powerful than the Lebanese army. Founded by Muslim clerics (speared by Ayatollah Khomeini) the Hezbollah was founded mainly to counter Israeli occupation of Lebanon (1982). Their objective was well defined in that they wanted to expel any sort of western presence (especially American) from Lebanon, along with western allies. Hezbollah is known to receive training and funding from Iran and is also backed by Syria. The 1983 bombings on the US Embassy in Lebanon, the Lebanon hostage crisis from 1982 to 1992, the London Israeli Embassy attack in 1994, the AC flight 901 attack in 1994 in Panama, and many many more terrorist activities have been credited to this terrorist group.

6. TEHRIK-I-TALIBAN Also known as the Tehrik I Taliban Pakistan, it forms a part of the various Islamist groups that are active in the Afghan border in Pakistan. Their objectives include overthrowing the Pakistani government, battling the NATO forces in Afghanistan and enforcing the Sharia law. Led by Maulana Fazlullah, the TTP is not directly affiliated with the Taliban (in Afghanistan). The 2010 Times Square car bombing attempt was an alleged undertaking of the TTP. The TTP has claimed responsibility for numerous attacks that include suicide bombings, bombing of UN offices in Pakistan, attacks in naval and army stations of Pakistan, etc.

7. LASHKAR-E-TOIBA One of the most notorious groups operating presently, the Lashkar-e-Toiba is most infamous for the Mumbai attacks on the 26 of November, 2008. It was responsible for the deaths of numerous civilians and it left the nation scarred. Alleged links to the secret service of Pakistan, the ISI, had resulted in a blatant breach of sovereignty (although the Pakistani government disowned any involvement). The 2001 attack on the Parliament of India was also carried out by the same group. With an objective to introduce an Islamist state in South Asia, the Lashkar-e-Toiba has also vowed to liberate Muslims residing in Indian Kashmir. They have also been known to use children, aged 13-14, from impoverished sections of the society to spread their terror activities. Bombings in Delhi (2005), bombings in Varanasi (2006), the Mumbai train bombings (2006) and numerous other activities have been carried out by LeT. What is even more shocking is that Saudi Arabia is an alleged sponsor of this group.

8. FARC Forças Armadas Revolucionárias da Colômbia or FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) was formed in the 1960s. They claim to be an army of peasant Marxist-Leninists with an ulterior motive of anti-imperialism. Kidnapping, extortion, illegal mining are regular activities of FARC. The government of Colombia recognizes FARC as a terrorist organization along with many other North American, Latin American and European governments. In 1962, the Colombian government, acting on US findings, had mobilized groups of civilians to work in cooperation with the army in countering the threat posed by FARC. This was Plan Lazo that had been set into motion by then Special Warfare commander, William P. Yarborough. In 2002 it was found out that the IRA and FARC had an understanding in between them- the IRA had received almost $2 million, resulting from drug trafficking, from FARC. FARC has been attributed with numerous killings, bombings and assassinations in Colombia and have been tagged as one of the world’s largest drug trafficking organizations in the world. Although at present they are not as violently active as they once were, FARC still remains a threat to Colombian security (as had been

9. NAXAL/NAXALITES Deriving its name from the village of its origin, Naxalbari, in West Bengal, the Naxalites are mostly associated with the Communist Party of India (Maoist) or the CPI-M. At present, states like Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkand, Andhra Pradesh have also fallen victim to the growth of this group. Their origin lies in a violent uprising that was led by Kanu Sanyal in 1967 to redistribute land to the landless. Their efforts were spurred on by Mao Zedong, the then chairman of the Communist Party of China, who said that the Naxalites should overthrow the government and upper class people by force. In the post-1970 era, the Naxal movement had gained a significant impetus, so much so that students from reputed colleges in Calcutta were dropping out of college in order to join the movement. Their aim was to assassinate individuals of great power and incite a civil war. In the year of 1971, the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had launched Operation Steeplechase (of which the Indian Army was a part) which resulted in the killing of numerous Naxalites and imprisonment of even more. At present, though reduced in number, the Naxalites still continue to operate, killing policemen, civilians and security personnel. They had been branded by Dr. Manmohan Singh as the “biggest threat to national security”.

10. IRISH REPUBLICAN ARMY A revolutionary organization in Ireland, it was formed out of the Irish Volunteers (founded in 1913). The IRA was responsible for waging a war of independence against the British in the period 1919-21. The entire war of independence was an extremely brutal affair and there were heavy casualties on either side. Having been trained as a guerilla unit, the IRA was skilled in quick attacks and ambushes. With an end to the war, the Anglo-Irish treaty was signed that resulted in a split within the IRA- those that supported the treaty came to be known as the Irish National Army and the rest remained affiliated to the IRA. A civil war followed as an inevitable result of the rift and the IRA lost it. Ever since, the group has remained in existence with the sole intention of overthrowing the Irish Free State and Northern Ireland in order to achieve the dream of Irish Republic. The IRA have been responsible for numerous car bombings and assassinations (including the assassination of Lord Mountbatten in 1979).

this list was arrange by a nairalander and that's me. either agree or not here is the list of top 10 most deadliest/heartless and dangerous terrorist group in the world. although many may disagree with this list especially IS and al-qaeda which of them should be number 1. but alqaeda has been around for a very long time and with the most intelligent and high profile sufisticated attacks. Monsters with an insatiable blood-thirst or rebels with a cause? Mindless robots on a killing spree or humans fighting for greater good? Most importantly, patriots or terrorists? The above questions have, perhaps, posed a dilemma to numerous debaters and popped up as a topic to think about deeply in discussions of importance. Yet, one cannot deny that terrorists, ‘noble’ or otherwise, have caused an unthinkable amount of suffering wherever they have set their devious schemes afoot. Ranging from genocides to making governments crumble to air raids and a lot more, terrorists around the world have massacred millions in the name of religion and so called ‘glory’. While the sheer weight they carry is enough to strike terror in people’s hearts, their actions have achieved far more than just that! Out of all the numerous terrorist groups operating in various ill-fated corners of the world, following are the most lethal ones present. lalasticlala, seun |

North Korea "is now thinking less about denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula but increasingly more about strengthening its deterrence capabilities" MOSCOW, January 14. /TASS/. Russian experts have the unanimous opinion that North Korea tested a nuclear device rather than a hydrogen bomb in early January. "The probability that North Korea tested a hydrogen bomb is minimal," Deputy Head of the Center for Euro-Atlantic and Defense Studies of the Russian Institute of Strategic Research Vladimir Novikov said at a roundtable discussion titled: "The North Korean Hydrogen Trace: Trying the Patience of the International Community," which was held on Thursday. "This was most likely the test of a charge allowing for more effective use of the weapons-grade nuclear material, which can be easier mounted on a missile. North Korea tested some device that is required for further development of a nuclear warhead," the expert said. According to Novikov, there is also another option: North Korea has not tested anything and is engaged in mystification. Head of the Korea and Mongolia Section at the Institute of Oriental Studies at the Russian Academy of Sciences Alexander Vorontsov said that North Korea "is now thinking less about denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula but increasingly more about strengthening its deterrence capabilities." "The North Korean people’s resolve shows that Pyongyang is ready to ensure its defense capability in new conditions and raise the country’s prestige in the international community," the expert said. Nuclear tests are "a means to confirm the fact that North Korea can defend itself against any aggression from outside," the expert said. "North Korea shows that you can’t deal with it in a way similar to what is being done with Syria and Iraq," Vorontsov said. "If an aggression is launched against them [North Korea], the response will be tough," the expert said. "There should be response, although balanced, to North Korea’s nuclear test," former Russian ambassador to North Korea, Associate Professor of the Department of the Japanese, Korean, Indonesian and Mongolian Languages at the Moscow State University of International Relations (MGIMO) of the Russian Foreign Ministry Valery Sukhinin said. "No doubt, this step will be denounced," the expert added. At the same time, it is necessary to restart the negotiation process on the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula, the expert said. "All the interested parties should be ready for the negotiations as there is no other way out," he noted. North Korea announced on January 6 that it had successfully tested a hydrogen bomb. Pyongyang said in a statement that the test had been carried out "exclusively for the purposes of self-defense for the reliable protection of the country’s sovereignty and the nation’s vital rights amid the growing nuclear blackmail and threats from the US-led forces alien to North Korea." In recent years, North Korea has held three nuclear tests: in 2006, 2009 and 2013. In response, the UN Security Council imposed new or tightened existing sanctions against Pyongyang.

North Korea claims it’s ready to detonate its H-bomb capable of wiping out the whole of the US “all at once.” The comments come amid increased week-long tensions on the Korean Peninsula following Pyongyang’s claim about its latest underground nuclear test. “The scientists and technicians of the DPRK are in high spirit to detonate H-bombs … capable of wiping out the whole territory of the US all at once,” North Korean KCNA news agency said. Along with the ‘wiping-out-US’ comments, Pyongyang added that the test “was neither to ‘threaten’ anyone nor to ‘provoke’ someone for a certain purpose.” “It was a process indispensable for carrying out the WPK's line on simultaneously carrying out the economic construction and the building of nuclear force to cope with the US ever-more undisguised hostile policy toward the DPRK,” the agency said. North Korea has recently made the headlines after it claimed to have carried out hydrogen bomb test. The announcement raised concerns over the security of the region. In the meantime, experts doubt that Pyongyang did test the H-bomb and later agreed the device was an atomic bomb similar to those in three previous tests. Pyongyang says developing a nuclear weapon was important in order to protect itself against US interference in North Korean affairs, and that the bomb can defend it against any invasion. The UN Security Council unanimously condemned North Korea’s most recent nuclear test. The test alerted neighboring Seoul. On Monday US troops stationed in South Korea were put on the highest alert ever to deter “any provocation coming from North Korea”. Earlier Washington deployed a strategic B-52 bomber on a low altitude demonstration flight over South Korea, to flex the alliance’s muscle. A Boeing B-52 Stratofortress strategic bomber from the United States Air Force (USAF) © Tim Chong / Reuters The United States has deployed a strategic B-52 bomber for a low altitude demonstrative flight over South Korea to demonstrate the alliance’s might and determination following North Korea’s latest provocative underground nuclear test. “The flight today demonstrates the strength and capabilities of the alliance,” said the head of US military deployment in in South Korea, Gen. Curtis Scaparrotti, reported Reuters. “North Korea's nuclear test is a blatant violation of its international obligations. US joint military forces in the Indo-Asia-Pacific will continue to work with all of our regional allies and partners to maintain stability and security,” Harris added in a statement. The US B-52 Stratofortress bomber, escorted by an F-16 fighter aircraft, took off from Andersen base in Guam and was escorted by Seoul’s F-15 fighter during its flight over South Korea’s Osan Air Base. The long range strategic bomber then returned back to Guam. The UN Security Council earlier this week unanimously condemned North Korea’s most recent nuclear test which was carried out Wednesday. While Pyongyang claimed to have tested a new thermonuclear bomb, experts agreed that the device tested was an atomic bomb similar to those present in three previous tests. Pyongyang claims that developing a nuclear weapon was vital in order to protect against US interference in North Korean affairs, and that the bomb is the only deterrent against any invasion that could set the nation on the same path as Libya or Iraq. |
