Blood diamonds are diamonds used to support wars, terrorism and mayhem against humans in the areas of the world that are in upheaval. People mine them -- usually at gunpoint or under threat of death or dismemberment -- because the terrorists' world buys the diamonds so the terrorists can buy more guns.
