Indian IS recruit 'goes home after having to clean toilets'
Yahoo ^ | 1 Dec 2014 | AFP

An Indian student who travelled to Iraq to join the Islamic State group has returned home disillusioned after jihadists made him clean toilets and do other menial jobs, according to media reports.

Areeb Majeed, 23, left for Iraq with three friends in late May amid fears by authorities that IS militants were attempting to recruit from India's large pool of young Muslim men.

Majeed told NIA officers he was sidelined by the jihadists for whom he fetched water and performed other lowly tasks such as cleaning toilets, instead of taking part in the deadly offensive like he wanted, the Press Trust of India news agency reported.

That’s one way to flush out those who really aren’t down for the struggle

He should not have been allowed to come back. Or shot on sight.

He should not have been surprised. Arabs are known to be quite racist and see Indians and Pakistanis as the lowest of the low, fit only to be street sweepers, lawn mowers and house boys. When I was in the middle east, I noticed that most job ads for positions dealing with the public (think hotel courtesy staff) included phrases like “Dutch, English, American, German preferred” or “Non-whites need not apply.”

India's moderate population of 150 million Muslims

No such thing as a moderate Muslim.

Sorta reminds me of the story of the kid that had a life long dream to join the circus.

At 15 he ran away from home, got a job cleaning ‘up’ after the elephants.
Circus visited his home town and his friends saw him tending to the elephants - he looked tired - hauling those big shovels around and picking up those bigger droppings were showing their mark and when advised he should go home, his family would forgive him, he just said:

“WHAT???!!!! and give up Show Biz”.

Are the guys who keep calling me to tell my computer is broke?

Keep calling, the last guy broke the record. I was able to keep him on the line for 37 minutes and 22 seconds.

Typical of today’s generation... they think they can join the military and start out as a general or something.
