ISIS kidnaps more children as it continues to build army of young blood-thirsty killers
In the Bible, Jesus Christ showed how children should be treated with love and care. In Mark 19: 13 - 15, for instance, His disciples rebuked children for coming to Jesus, but He instead took them in His arms and blessed them.
Jesus said: "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."
On the contrary, the jihadist group Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) is treating kids with so much violence. ISIS militants recently kidnapped 127 children from the Iraqi city of Mosul, with the goal of turning them into killers, a report from the IraqiNews.com said.
The ISIS plans to take the kids, aged 11 to 15 years old, to camps where they will be indoctrinated with terrorist ISIS ideologies, and taught how to handle weapons and kill their enemies.
The ISIS is ultimately trying to build an army of young blood-thirsty soldiers, which it calls the "cubs of the caliphate." The children are also being used for the terrorist group's suicide missions.
Saeed Mamouzini, an official from the Kurdistan Democratic Party in Mosul, shared that the father of one of the kidnapped kids died while trying to stop ISIS militants from snatching his son.
"ISIS had kidnapped hundreds of children during the last period, and they were trained to carry out suicide operations," Mamouzini said.
Earlier this week, 14-year-old Raghab Ahmed recounted how the ISIS used him in filming a propaganda video by the terrorist group showing how children are being trained to become skilled killers in their training camp.
Ahmed recalled how ISIS militants forced him to pray in front of a gun and taught how to behead "infidels."
