Al-Qaeda Propaganda Stunt
Thursday, December 03, 2009
Source: The Sun Online
As part of a sickening propaganda stunt staged by extremists of the Islamic Jihad Union, linked to al-Qaeda use images of six armed toddlers with heavy weapons in front of a black Islamic flag to threaten the West.
The group - who target British and US troops from lairs on the Afghan border with Pakistan - also pictured the tiny girl, aged barely two, sucking her fingers in childish innocence - while grasping an AK-47 assault rifle almost as big as her. The tot, in full Muslim dress, was made to pose with the weapon dubbed the "Widowmaker".
Three boys aged five or six wield rifles in another chilling image posted online.
Tory MP and former soldier Patrick Mercer said: "This is a most immoral use of young children."
Inayat Bunglawala, of the Muslim Council of Britain, said: "It can never be acceptable to use children in this appalling manner for cheap propaganda purposes."
