The Confederate Flag - a longstanding symbol racism and slavery from the United States Civil War was recently removed from the South Carolina State House in light of recent racially charged killings and social unrest. In one Florida county, however, locals touted the flag as a symbol of Southern Pride and national heritage. Marion County voted unanimously to keep flying the flag. The vote was followed by a heavily attended rally.

The Afghan military has made progress in turning out more quality foot soldiers - now numbering 195,000. But with a desertion rate of 24%, and with major problems of corruption and a lack of a steady supply chain, many question whether the military can hold the ground beyond the US and NATO withdrawal in 2014.

Kadyrovtsy militants during constitution day in Chechnya, Russian Federation. Kadyrovtsy (Russian: Кадыровцы, Kadyrovcy, literally "Kadyrov's followers") also Kadyrovites, is a term used by the population of Chechnya, as well as members of the groups themselves, for former members of the paramilitary units of the former pro-Moscow President of the Chechen Republic Akhmad Kadyrov, headed by his son and the current President Ramzan Kadyrov. Kadyrovites, thousands of personally devoted armed men (estimated at around 5,000), including many former rebels from the First and Second Chechen Wars, have been accused of serious human rights abuses. Human rights activists working in Chechnya have said the group has been involved in kidnapping, torture and murder to cement Kadyrov's rule; reportedly, this is the group now most feared by Chechnya’s civilian population.
