But for assassin groups, they’re just part of everyday business. The next 4 groups exemplify not only man’s capacity to kill without regard but also how it can be done efficiently and professionally. These are the 4 most Deadly Assassin Groups. 4. Werewolves of HitlerEverybody knows things didn’t end great for Hitler and the Nazis. But few people understand or are even aware of just how deeply entangled, Hitler’s evil insanity ran. At some point in running the Third Reich, Hitler created a special unit. Dubbed as the Werewolves, the group was composed of more than 5,000 young volunteers. These young men were members of the Hitler Youth and the Waffen SS. In essence, they were a sleeper group organized in 1944 by Heinrich Himmler. Their main purpose was to remain in the territories that fell under allied forces. If the Werewolves were activated, they were to draw arms and weapons from pre-arranged caches and then proceed to ambush, assassinate, sabotage and kill various British, Soviet and American allied leaders and groups. 3. The Visha KanyaTranslated to mean “poison girl” or “poison damsel,” the Visha Kanya were said to be young women used as assassins against powerful enemies. Theywould primarily kill their victims using poison and It’s said the group was started around 340 to 293 BC where they were created by the first Indian Emperor,. The existence of the Visha Kanya is recorded in the Arthashastra, an early written record created on state affairs. In it, it states that the Emperor was advised to keep a network of secret agents to monitor as well as manipulate enemies. The idea of creating female assassins in addition to the males was then born, since a female would be much less suspect and thus able to get close to the enemy. 2. The NokmimTranslated as the “avengers” in Hebrew, the Nokmim were a militia group that made a name for themselves after they hunted down Nazi’s shortly after the Allies decided to allow most Nazi leaders to meld back into daily life without punishment. After the war, despite the Nuremberg trials, there were tens of thousands of Nazi Germans who went unpunished for their crimes and contribution to the atrocities of the Holocaust. This included those who manned the camps, those involved in the mobile killing units, guards and more. The Allied Forces simply couldn’t chase them all down. It would mean arresting thousands of people, not to mention the majority of the male population in Germany during that time. In the end, save for some of the high-ranking officials who were officially identified, most were left to integrate back into society. 1. Murder Inc.During the 1930s and 40s, organized crime was at an all-time high. Run by the Italian-American mafia, Murder Inc. was an enforcement group connected to organized crime running mainly in New York and elsewhere around America during the time. Composed of Jewish gangsters and Italian-American individuals coming from the neighborhoods of Brooklyn, Ocean Hill and East New York, the group was initially headed by Louis “Lepke” Buchalter and then later on, it was run by Albert “The Mad Hatter” Anastasia. Essentially, the group not only functioned under the direction of the said mobsters, but also accepted contract killings from other mob bosses across the United States.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.

During examination, they found that the woman’s closed eye sockets didn’t hold eyes but instead rubber pellets.

While everybody knows they won’t live forever, people rarely think about how exactly they’ll die. We do everything we can to distract ourselves from our inevitable demise despite the fact that there are very real threats facing us everyday that could possibly result in mass human extinctions.

Pandemic (Natural or Man-made Disease)A pandemic is the widespread dispersion of an infectious disease throughout a large region – on multiple continents around the world. In the modern world, we now know what causes most diseases and we’ve even developed preventative measures and vaccinations for some of the deadliest. While this is true, there are some serious repercussions that we haven’t considered. And there are diseases that have killed hundreds of thousands that still continue to infect and ravage our world today. Many of those happened hundreds and thousands of years ago when there was little understanding of how they spread. So is a threat of a world wide pandemic still possible in the modern world we live in? 4. Nuclear War – Resulting in a Nuclear WinterA nuclear holocaust is one of the most imagined bleak futures that our world could suffer. The idea of a nuclear war breaking out is nothing new and has been around ever since the power of the atom bomb was displayed in World War II. Today, we’re no better. In fact, we’re under a more precarious situation as major countries in the world stockpile on nuclear weapons. Now, it seems that it’s only a matter of time before we move on to a total nuclear annihilation. But is it really possible for nuclear war to erupt in our world today? And what would happen if such a war did occur? Today, there are over 16,300 pieces of nuclear weapons spread out in nine countries particularly, Russia, France, The UK, United States, North Korea, China, Pakistan, India and Israel. 3. Overpopulation and the 6th Mass ExtinctionThe 6th mass extinction involves the mass death of wildlife. Scientists have noticed that our planet’s wildlife are dying at a faster rate as a result of human overpopulation and overconsumption. Compared to the five mass extinctions of the past that involved cataclysmic events like supervolcanoes or asteroidal impacts that killed off the dinosaurs, we are killing off our mammals, birds and amphibians at an alarming rate all on our own.2. Asteroidal ImpactMany believe life on Earth started in space – brought upon by an asteroid impact. Aside from being the possible source of life on the planet, asteroids are also thought to be the reason that life on this planet could end. Sixty million years ago, a massive asteroid plunged into the Earth and eradicated the dinosaurs. Since then, the idea of human extinction through an asteroid impact has become a poster child for a possible human demise. 1. Artificial Intelligence – The Rise of the MachinesElon Musk is known to be the man of the future. He’s created SolarCity to provide a green alternative power source for humans; Tesla, to provide an alternative for the internal-combustion engine and of course, SpaceX, to back up his desire to see a human colony on Mars during his lifetime. But despite all these endevors, there is one thing he doesn’t subscribe to, the idea of creating “artificial intelligence” Seeing it as the largest threat facing our world today. He’s also not the only one.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
