Dozens of suspected Nazi war criminals have collected millions in social security benefits. A team of journalists who found that the justice department allowed the suspected Nazis to keep the benefits if they agreed to leave the country. However the investigations led by the justice department have not made it clear who these people are exactly due to the confidentiality of records.

What Are You Afraid Of?
Often not a tiny bit more than half of all Americans believe that gang violence and child abductions have increased over the past twenty years but in reality they have decreased over that time. Along with those fears many Americans fear things such as identity theft, walking alone at night and speaking in public. But a shocking result was that many were afraid natural disasters but few of those actually had emergency supplies or a kit ready. The research team plans on taking these survies of the people annually and that it would show people that America has improved drastically.

A British Message to Israel
So Israel is building and expanding their territories and even though other countries have been like "hey man stop that's illegal" Israel just keeps going ahead and continuing what they're doing. Pretty much Israel and Palestine have no real set borders and this is causing a lot of conflict and many other things as well. And it's just leading to more and more death. All the while Britain is saying that Israel needs to settle down and stop attacking.

Fight Against Ebola
When the fight against Ebola has taken over central Africa this homeless shelter turns into a treatment center against the virus. It also provides training for volunteers to fight against the outbreak so it won't take anymore lives. The outbreak is so bad that there's quarintine camps, where people go to see if their symptoms worsen or not. If they do they stay if they don't change they leave the next day. If they go away they leave too. But most end up dying. However though the few that survive the Ebola are said to be immune to the entire virus itself and they are looking for a cure from this.

Dying with Dignity
In 1997 Oregon created the death with dignity act, allowing citizens to obtain life ending prescriptions from a physician. You have to be a mentally healthy 18+ Oregon citizen. Some doctors however find this morally corrupt. Saying that it goes against their reasons for being a doctor and whatnot. Ultimately I completely agree with Oregon and I even believe that if you want to end your life on your own terms you should be able to do it as soon as possible.

Fighting for Mother Nature
In France a forest is about to be destroyed and the French Eco activists have tried peaceful protests to get the police/government to stop destroying this forest. Quite odd as the police had made it turn from peaceful to a miniature war. The Eco activists are tying themselves to trees, living in them and trying hard to keep them. But in the end it turns into a altercation with rocks, bombs, tear gas and fire.
Obstacles to College
Students of Princeton university are calling on the university's administration to stop the recieving of criminal information from the state. At NYU (New York University) they are leading a campaign of incarceration to education coalition. Pretty much they're saying that past involvement with the judicial system shouldn't affect a person aiming to receive a higher education.
