ISIS hides bombs inside teddy bears and toy trucks: using improvised devices to target children

Shortened title.

Full title: Now ISIS hides bombs inside teddy bears and toy trucks: Barbarians using improvised devices to target children as forces close in on Mosul

In the war-ravaged town of Mosul, a teddy bear or truck is a rare treasure to a child.

But these innocent-looking toys are actually the trigger for sinister booby traps that detonate as soon as they are touched.

The ploy marks a sickening new low for Islamic State, who currently hold Iraq’s second largest city, as they can only be intended to target children. Adults would walk straight past them.

These and other cunningly disguised improvised explosive devices (IEDs) have been put on display at a training centre for locally-trained bomb disposal experts as 40,000 soldiers, state-sanctioned militia members and other fighters prepare to encircle Mosul to cut off IS forces from outside help.

Aren't you glad that Obama uses our taxpayer dollars to arm and fund these jihadists?

I am ashamed as an American that these ISIS pigs are still breathing.

ISIS is the embodiment of Satan on Earth.

Any of those terrorist organizations are.

Al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Arabs on the West Bank and in Gaza, al Fatah, and on and on it goes, it’s a shame that they have bought into the Evil One’s end game.

The Islamic cult’s beliefs, the embodiment of ill will against women and children, it’s just a suicidal pact with the Devil.

How else do you reference what they do to their wives, daughters, sons, all of which are the promise of the future?

Those that sympathize with these people, are nothing but minions of Satan.

It’s that simple.

And some insulated, ignorant liberals like Sally Kohn still insist that ISIS is no different than Christian “extremists.” ISIS is evil. This is what evil looks like. It intentionally tries to kill and maim children. It has no morality.

Sally Kohn must be mentally ill. I cringe whenever she is on Bret Baier’s panel. But then I am pretty sure that Liberalism is a mental disorder.

I’m not sure if that was really true, or if it was propaganda. Doesn’t seem to me the kind of thing Russians would do. Granted, they’re no angels, but that seems pretty far-fetched.

That is how one of the members of the Lusthog Squad is killed in the movie Full Metal Jacket from 1987. Picking-up a toy tied to explosives.

I read that when the Soviets first went into Afghanistan in what, ~1979, they did the same thing, but quickly learned that that kids will pick up anything, so they ditched the bad-publicity-drawing toys in favor of every day objects to booby trap.

Reminds me of 1969 when some South Vietnamese dolls were believed to have bombs inside them designed to blow up when sent home as souvenirs by GIs.

Hillary helped arm ISIS. Hillary is guilty of killing a lot of children across Syria, period.
