| Inside an ISIS camp, children trained in beheading |

| [RUDAW.NET] The children had all been shown videos of beheadings and told by their trainers with the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group that they would perform one someday. First, they had to practice technique. The more than 120 boys were each given a doll and a sword and told, cut off its head. A 14-year-old who was among the boys, all kidnapped from Iraq's Yazidi religious minority, said he couldn't cut it right. He chopped once, twice, three times. "Then they taught me how to hold the sword, and they told me how to hit. They told me it was the head of the infidels," the boy, renamed Yahya by his ISIS captors, told The News Agency that Dare Not be Named last week in northern Iraq, where he fled after escaping the ISIS training camp. When Islamic State snuffies overran Yazidi towns in northern Iraq last year, they butchered older men and enslaved many of the women and girls. Dozens of young Yazidi boys like Yahya had a different fate: The ISIS sought to re-educate them. They forced them to convert to Islam from their ancient faith and tried to turn them into jihadi fighters. It is part of a concerted effort by the snuffies to build a new generation of krazed killers, according to AP interviews with residents who fled or still live under ISIS in Syria and Iraq. The group is recruiting teens and children using gifts, threats and brainwashing. Boys have been turned into killers and jacket wallahs. An ISIS video issued last week showed a boy beheading a Syrian soldier under an adult krazed killer's supervision. Last month, a video showed 25 children unflinchingly shooting 25 captured Syrian soldiers in the head. In schools and mosques, "I am terribly worried about future generations," said Abu Hafs Naqshabandi, a Syrian sheikh who runs religion classes for refugees in the Turkish city of Sanliurfa to counter ISIS ideology. |
