Organized crime finances illegal fishing

jeudi 25 février 2016 à 01:00

Organized crime now finances illegal unsustainable fishing of endangered species around the world. A group of volunteers work to catch the criminals.

Dissident sentenced to year in prison

jeudi 25 février 2016 à 01:00

* It's official name is "Saudi Arabia", but I think "Salafi Arabia" better describes the poison it spreads.
