1Inside Afghanistan
The BBC's Ben Anderson spends 24 hours in Afghanistan's bloody Helmand Province and walks into a firefight.
2Inside Darfur
VICE travels to the most dangerous country in the world to figure out what the hell is happening in Darfur. In the video, Vice founder Shane Smith dons a djellaba and walks through the streets of Khartoum, visits a displaced persons camp filled with over 300,000 people and encounters the notorious SPLA (Sudan People Liberation Army).
3The European Capitol of Terrorism: Belfast, Ireland
VICE headed over to Belfast, in the lead up to this year's Twelfth parade, and tensions were running higher than any period in recent memory: It was only a few months since a 25-year-old Catholic police officer was murdered by dissident republicans (to dissuade others from joining the force) and just weeks after altercations between nationalists and unionists in east Belfast ended in riots and multiple shootings, including a cameraman. What better time to explore Belfast and marinate in the divisive hate?
4North Korean Labor Camps
North Korea has come up with a new way to bring cold hard cash into its isolated country: export North Korean workers to slave away in the Siberian forest (often without telling them they're no longer in North Korea). We set out to investigate these camps and almost landed ourselves in quite a bit of trouble.
