What is the so called blood diamond?

Blood Diamonds, also known as Conflict Diamonds are stones that are acquired in areas controlled by rebel forces that are opposed to internationally recognized governments. The rebels sell these diamonds, and use the money to purchase arms or to fund their military actions.Blood Diamonds are often produced through the forced labor of men, women and children. They are also stolen during shipment or seized by attacking the mining operations of legitimate producers. These attacks can be on the scale of a large military operation. The stones are then smuggled into the international diamond trade and sold as legitimate gems.These diamonds are often the main source of funding for the rebels, however, arms merchants, smugglers and dishonest diamond traders enable their actions usually clandestinely, in order to finance an insurgency, invading army's war efforts, or supporting a warlord's activities.Enormous amounts of money are at stake and bribes, threats, torture, and murder are modes of operation. This is why the term "blood diamonds" is used.
