A horrific video has emerged claiming to show a nine-year-old child being brutally murdered by members of a Shia militia who accused him of being a supporter of the Islamic State terror group. The footage was purportedly filmed near the Iraqi city of Tikrit, where a coalition of 30,000 Iraqi Army soldiers and private Shia armies launched a campaign to oust ISIS militants earlier this week. The horrific film has not been independently verified and could easily be just the latest piece of propaganda to be released by the terrorist organisation. Nevertheless the sheer brutality of the clip calls into question the policy of allowing local armed groups to lead the fightback against ISIS.

Issis is led by former soldiers of Saddam’s Bath party. Like letting Hitler’s SS troops hang around after WWII.
And comparing Iran to the Soviet Union - imagine what the world would be like if we had just pulled out of Germany after the war. (Or - even more realistic, if we had not supported Berlin during the air-drops. Those air-drops could have easily led to WWIII if one of our planes had crashed or been shot down imho.)

If the kid supports ISIS...
[and 85-90% of the world's Muslims are Sunni, IOW, Shiites kill twice as many per capita]
Obama is consistent: he supports tyranny both at home and abroad.

Salient point. The way I would phrase it is if you saw a baby rattlesnake would you let it be because it is a wee baby?
The key phrase there is "in cold blood".
During the Iraq war, I remember coming across an email from a US soldier who was guarding a convoy. She spotted a nine-year-old (age estimated, obviously) leveling a weapon at her people. She took him out. She's a hero. Deal with it.
On the other hand, the individuals who killed the nine-year-old in this article, are sand nazi war criminals who need to die!
What do you do when the enemy of ISIS is just as wicked... do you cheer (throw the dice)?
I lament the way the kid was probably duressed into this thing by howling angry maniacs.
