Another Allahpundit report based upon a UN news agency report:
…The dreams 13-year-old Barak Muhammad (not his real name) had of leading a normal teenage life were dashed when his father sold him to al-Qaeda militants. Being mentally handicapped, he said he was considered a burden by his family and was told he would be better off sacrificing his life for his country…
Barak’s father sold him to al-Qaeda in Iraq for US $10,000 to support his remaining five children. Now, Barak is in training to fight US and Iraqi troops…
Carrying a Kalashnikov assault rifle, Barak said he accompanies insurgents during night time raids and when needed acts as a decoy to divert the attention of US or Iraqi forces in the run-up to an attack…
Like Barak, dozens of other mentally handicapped children are being used by insurgents to fight US and Iraqi forces…
Officials at a local NGO, who refused to be named for security reasons, said they had received many reports that mentally handicapped children were being used in insurgent attacks, especially in cities such as Diyala, Ramadi and Fallujah.
Iraqi kids who aren’t mentally disabled are doing their best to persevere, god love ‘em.
These are the people Pelosi, Reid et al wish to surrender to.
