Not that we pray for a third world war but our curiosity just got us thinking what countries can boast of the best forces. So, if you happen to be a citizen or live in any of these countries, rest assured that you are well covered as your soldiers are up to the task of protecting you from external aggressions.
1. Of course we always knew it would be the good Ole Uncle Sam. The United States Navy SEALs (air and land) are the deadliest forces in the world. No matter how adorable the seals at the last circus show you saw were, you definitely won't be taking your kids to see these other SEALs in action They are well equipped and renowned for their ability to deal with even the toughest offensives. They are best trained to deal with counter-terrorism, hostage rescue and warfare. Famous Ops include the Bin laden killing and the swift execution of the three Somalian pirates who held a captain hostage.
2. We'll call them trained killers for want of another name. They are Russia's Alpha Group, trained in counter-terrorism. The group is made up of bad-ass, tough looking guys whose smile will make you piss in your pants. It was formed in 1974 and has survived the fall of the Iron Curtain to exist up till today. In 2004, during a Beslan school hostage rescue crisis, they rescued 1200 hostages from Chechen separatists and took down 31 of the bad guys too. Trust us you don't want these puppies barking up your tree.
3.
You've always imagined that there are only dangerous animals in the wild, well, we present the Kaibiles.
The Kaibiles of Guatemala are fearless and full of guts. They know no fear and their expertise in jungle combats and adverse insurgency ops will chill your blood. Their motto being ''“If I advance, follow me. If I stop, urge me on. If I retreat, kill me'', makes it a huge turn-off for spineless individuals. They are very effective and could be utterly ruthless when the need arises. Eight kaibiles were killed and five wounded in an ambush in Congo as part of a UN peacekeeping force. The dead soldiers were part of a botched operation to capture the deputy commander of Uganda's Lord's Resistance Army.
4. Busy combating counter-terrorism and hostage rescue are the talented special forces of Israel-Sayer et Matkal. Experts in small arms, terrorism and counter terrorism, martial arts and especially intelligence. They are deadly, ruthless and effective. They have proved their worth in the past by rescuing hostages from an hijacked plane.
5. What comedy is to Rowan Atkinson, warfare, sabotage, intelligence gathering, close quarter battle and espionage is to the British SAS. While you play your video games chasing small time thieves down dark alleys, these guys catch the real bad guys. You can find them in mountains, jungles and deserts where they make their home. In 1980, during the hostage crisis of the Iranian embassy in London, the SAS were called on and they took out 5 out of the 6 terrorists and saved 19 hostages.
