West Africa is being plagued by a new outbreak of Ebola — a terrifying disease that causes its victims to bleed to death from the inside out. Ebola has no cure, and the latest epidemic is spreading fast.
 
VICE News visited Liberia, where many feel the new outbreak began, borne from the bushmeat markets of Lofa. Western scientists feel that the consumption and preparation of meat from monkeys, fruit bats, and other forest animals is behind the transmission of Ebola, and possibly a new supervirus, which if left uncontrolled could kill a third of the world\'s population.

http://www.undergroundworldnews.com A social media viral campaign has sprung up in the Arab world that involves burning the Isis flag. The trend started after three Lebanese youths posted pictures of them burning the flag associated with the militant group, also known as Islamic State, in the middle of Sassine Square in Beirut. Soon afterwards, a Lebanese YouTube user uploaded a video of himself burning a flag. Similar to the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in which people choose others to their do own videos, the user nominated "the whole world " to take part in the #BurnISISFlagChallenge. The campaign soon went viral, especially in Lebanon following the beheading of one of the country's soldiers by IS. However, some are not happy with the protest campaign and are calling for those found burning the flag to face the "sternest punishments upon them". https://uk.news.yahoo.com/burn-isis-flag-challenge-goes-viral-arab-world-124824439.html#frlTfkv

"U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel announced Friday a new international coalition aimed at wiping out Islamic State militants. The plan against the extremist group, formerly known as ISIS or ISIL, calls for stopping the flow of foreign fighters, cutting off its funding, addressing humanitarian crises and "delegitimizing" its ideology, Kerry said. A new and inclusive government in Iraq is critical to stopping the jihadists, Kerry said. The U.K., France, Australia, Germany, Canada, Turkey, Italy, Poland and Denmark are expected to lend military and financial support in the coalition's fight against ISIS. Kerry said the NATO allies will all stand behind a new Iraqi government “in its efforts to unify the country against ISIL.” Kerry's comments came while he attended the NATO summit in Wales with President Barack Obama. The U.S. plans to “degrade and destroy ISIL capabilities-and ensure that it can no longer threaten Iraq, the region, and the world,” Kerry said.“* Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola (TYT University), Ben Mankiewicz (Turner Classic Movies) and Wes Clark Jr break it down. *Read more here from Amethyst Tate / International Business Times: http://www.ibtimes.com/us-nato-allies-form-coalition-against-isis-vow-stop-flow-foreign-fighters-1679796 ********** Eric Boiling, Ukraine & Russia Truce, Coalition & ISIS Survivor - The Young Turks 9/5/2014 News and Politics http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTpcK80irdQhlOkZjLaE7vXaPYzQTu0x- ********** The Largest Online News Show in the World.

Kunming knife attack: Deadly rampage in Chinese train station leaves 30 dead, more than 130 injured

A mass knife attack at a train station in the southwestern Chinese city of Kunming left more than 30 dead and over 130 injured. A group of assailants, dressed in black and wielding large knives and machetes attacked people at random a train station in the southwestern Chinese city of Kunming late on Saturday. Police shot dead five of the attackers and authorities are actively hunting down the remaining assailants. The black-clad attackers, covered their faces with masks and stormed the crowded train station at 9:20 pm. A witness said she heard people around her shouting "they are hacking people" and along with others ran into the train station seeking shelter. She next saw a tall man donning a mask and wielding a machete, lashing out indiscriminately. According to another witness account, police initially ineffectively fired teargas at the assailants, before eventually firing at them. Officials called the assault well-planned and blamed Xinjiang separatists for the deadly attack at the train station. State media even went as far as to call the act China's "911" and resolutely called for a crackdown on terrorism. Chinese president Xi Jinping has called for "all-out efforts" to bring to justice those involved in the attack. Local police have set up checkpoints along every route out of the city to ensure suspects are unable to escape. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Welcome to TomoNews, where we animate the most entertaining news on the internets.
