you can always go to our website in the meantime it is called x. your company and c.c. . welcome to the but is the game here for double. triple play to talk about its. coverage. during what. we have. let's have a good summary of them a good one. w. .

bush am on the self-styled islamic state has been defeated militarily but its propaganda videos are still circulating on the internet. many feature child soldiers undergoing training. young boys coerced into killing and dying for the count 1st. in 2015 schoolchildren in the french city of toulouse spotted a classmate in an i.r.s. propaganda video. should it was a master on march 12th i received a call from the school psychologist. she said we had kids here crying. i quickly realized the children were in shock because of a video they'd watched. you know if you do you.

they said yeah that's right leon in the video. for what years of full measure they'd recognize their classmate and his stepfather unmistakeably. it don't golf walk and then you see the child taking aim and killing a prisoner yeah and he murders a hostage as you know that. at the time ron was 12 years old the chair for french schoolboy turned into a cold blooded killer. don't just wish list you don't do turn up so that we could barely believe it but it was true we were now facing a totally new situation as the children had an endless number of questions. to

us about so we couldn't deal with something like this on our own so we called in a team of doctors and psychologists she could get. this awful to look on the subject of his former friends and classmates all had the same basic question as us adults how could he possibly do such a thing. in their minds he was a nice boy friendly and kind of. they often had fun together laughing and playing football. some of them asked if he can murder a human being is he intrinsically evil. is he a monster the best he did or the name for so long michel as he does and. a host i think. brown was taken out of school in april 2014 and brought to syria by his parents his stepfather was

a friend of the islamist militant mohammed merah he was shot dead by french police after he murdered 7 people including children at a jewish school. french authorities last all trace of the propaganda video is the last time he was seen alive. videos of this kind designed by islamic state to start in the west by raising the specter of a new generation of merciless fighters. recruited and trained by the jihadist group these children say western intelligence agencies pose a serious danger. even after the caliphates defeat in the field tens of thousands of us fighters remain in iraq interment camps. they include some 5000 children and teenagers among them several 100 who came from europe. most were recruited to the islamic state by their own parents.

parts of northern iraq semi autonomous kurdish region were among the longest held i-s. territories this is all that remains of cinderella. the city was once the center of the years e.d.'s an ethnic minority targeted by ass in a campaign of ethnic cleansing. kurdish troops recaptured send in the autumn of 2015 today it lies in ruins its outskirts licit with dozens of mass graves. in center alone i asked murdered some 10000 years eighty's thousands of women and girls were abducted raped and enslaved. i also kidnapped young boys to enlist them as child soldiers.

is from center she managed to flee when i its fighters captured the city in the summer of 2014 but 71 members of her extended family were trapped by troops of the so-called calif it i'm not able to escape most were never heard from again. a diva travels tirelessly from one refugee camp to another to help where she can and in the hope of finding lost relatives. was very different if into. the phone all the family were together. but now it's so difficult because this road here a bit further on. people lost each other. and now our phone i'm far from my

family my parents my sibling each one of us in a different country. while it. well. how are you i missed you so much are you all well. let's go inside where a lot of our. house one does not have. after years of separation idea has managed to track down some of her relatives they were able to escape by his troops after the intervention of kurdish and iraqi forces. how are you are you in good health thank goodness thank god that's. all that they're

2. funny. are you well you know. one of the divas causeless was recruited by ass and trained as a child soldier. will you sit down with me. father was 13 when he and other children were abducted and transported to rocca the asked while capital of the i ask our. father received the type of minute tree drilling displayed in his propaganda video games. that

have you seen these videos that i had sense to youngsters. out of him actually yes they filmed the one of them in our camp it shows boys marching in uniform. they're all wearing hats about 70 or 80 kids in total is just about. to do it he. does. it out of you know you know. but you know when i was a little boy. that is me there. just seen it before that's not at all that point that's right in front of me. this boy here is a u.c.d. so is this one and him his sister and mother are also with i.a.s. this one's is 82 he's dead. as to this. throughout the duration of his captivity funnel lived in fear of beatings brutal

drills and violence after 5 months in the training camp the children were sent by i asked to the frontlines to rocka a leper. traumatized the teenager is plagued by nightmares and finds it hard to talk about what he went through. them a little says i feel like my life was ruined by all the violence and hardship. can you get that we were torn from one world and placed in another the 1st world was good but the 2nd is very hard so that. our life is not good time passes and it's like we're paralyzed and either you have to go to jail or to war and leave your mother you have no choice it's no life now.

the room is on a bed i've seen a lot of brutality a lot of bad things it doesn't even scare me if i a spider's behead someone right in front of me. we're used to it because we have seen such dreadful things that's not hard to kill a human being you shoot and he's dead a little. fellow escaped his eye his captives in december 2016 but his freedom was short lived he was taken into custody by iraqi authorities he feared he could conduct terrorist attacks for i asked. to talk formosa's all for we turn children. they're killing machines by subjecting them to traumatic experiences that destroyed their moral boundaries. in sierra leone children were forced to rape their mothers or cut off other children's arms. because you know their words to do the unthinkable. get the problems you do when the unthinkable is

made possible so it triggers an enormous inner rage that is easy to bring to the fore associated of course you welcome your sort of star yes you are. in flux and once children are psychologically confused it's easy for malevolent adults to groom them into soldiers of. the day to suggest we call them monsters to protect ourselves unfortunately it has to be said that their children like our own. except that they're forced to abandon their own moral boundaries as i see the schools. also just stripped of any normal sense of the run of t.m. most a new phenomenon many extremist groups in the us children for armed combat but i have since reliance on children to fill its ranks and function as human shields

appears to have reached exceptional levels children are cheaper they cost less food you have to pay them a lesser wage i don't is that easier mentally to. engage with and to convince. what was shocking for us was the amount of investment put in children in the past of course we see terrorist organization children never at such an organized demotic with the kids what they want is this army its future soldiers. i ask used mass rape to bring to a new culture of fighters terrorizing an entire ethnic group.

was only 14 when like countless u.c.d. women and girls she was abducted and forced into sexual slavery she was raped over and over again ultimately she was forced to marry and i asked fighter. we had to sit on the floor in front of them the commander said that every soldier should choose a woman so each one of them pointed to one of us and took us away with them and. we had to stay with them for 3 days they killed some of us raped us did unspeakable things to us. saying it's because. after about 20 days i realized i was pregnant i tried everything to get rid of the child but nothing worked when the boy was born i

wanted nothing to do with him but they threatened me if i didn't raise the child they take it away and hand me over to another man. i only agreed to take care of the baby so i wouldn't be given to another man. and i was forced to marry her rapist. she tried to commit suicide. after months of slavery she managed to escape leaving her child behind. today as back in school but she is haunted by the past as much as she tries to move on she can't forget her baby. do you think you'll ever see your child again. yes but only when i asked is totally defeated they view the child is their own and they wouldn't give him to me. i know

he is a son of the i.r.s. they've done dreadful things to us but still he is my son and of course i think of him but i have no idea where he is and have you tried to find out. as best i could yes what's his name. and i wanted to give him a z.t. name but i wasn't allowed to know his name is. do you remember what he looks like yes. sure i can't talk about it anymore it's too hard.

even after the collapse of i as a self-proclaimed caliphate tens of thousands of women are still raising the children of i asked fighters children conceived to serve the jihad. that's about it historically a lot of aggressive regimes have banked on high birth rates napoleon pursued this strategy so did the nazis before women had to produce a lot of children the same is true of i-s. . but unlike the nazis who were seeking racial purity the u.s. is pursuing an agenda of ideological and religious purity they'll do that's a thing to do such images i've got the lead sound of sunday off going out to fish and chips and christmas it doesn't matter to them whether it's a chechen arab or german who's joining the jihad or a smiling blue eyed frenchman from normandy. as long as he it hears to their

religious ideology think and feel intimate enough to do an article for the judge in your class. it was written. from the moment that bone these children are raised and indoctrinated with this ideology. it's only known. and they have no choice but to adapt to the social environment. suitable fish to. its inevitable every child grows up immersed in the world view of their parents and protectors he would sound the experience life as a. good man eat. eat and eat

a hot tea yes. it's nice to see the truth and the see an awful it's very easy to turn a child into a fanatic because it's forming its 1st memories when synapses are connecting to the brain. paula if a child learns to hate it in the name of morality of course. it's surprising how fast these connections are hardwired into the brain of course you don't just learn from books or in school you learn everything from the people you love not gotten. yourself the child's brain is shaped by those people's words attitudes and series of. what's. the important point here is that violence is systematic everywhere in these children's lives so it's a very very structured program of education. islamic

states extremist ideology isn't shrines in all aspects of daily life. even in baby announcements. props like a kalashnikov or hand grenades hail the newborn's jihad is destiny. anti coloring books filled with various types of military equipment turning weapons of war into normal everyday objects for children growing up among i as fighters. selma and has now left their home in paris in 2014 and were taken by their mother and stepfather and i as fighter to rocka they lived for 2 years on their return to france their mother was arrested. the girls aged 5 and 7

now live with their biological father who fought hard for custody. in his care the children a slowly finding their way back to a normal childhood away from war violence and religious fanaticism but 2 years are a long time for young children. their exposure to ayers indoctrination has impacted the way they thank them talk. why did the bad men want to kill you. because they were unbelievers. are very bad evil people if they don't pray or read the koran. and gave it. to me did you enjoy learning all these things no. both of the language of totalitarianism always resorts to the same pattern it

starts with the words infidels unbeliever triggering an automatic process that always ends with death. so the next level introduces the word blasphemy you ridicule and insult my god there's no greater crime i am indignant and outraged . rage is an emotional process that makes it impossible to think rationally it escalates until killing becomes the morally right thing to do. from an early age i asked children are exposed to rigid religious doctrine. in kindergarten they would practice beheadings. so it's actually very sophisticated to give a child a teddy bear or a toy and teach him how to head it because then eventually what that setting the

precedent for spearheading is ok and it's fun and it's something to do with your friends that are new to enjoy it and eventually when you reach a certain age the beheading becomes of a person i do you are asked to behead people. is seen as awful but it is he also had these results for you call it what they want see. if. it. is all. but school for the cops of the caliph it ends at the age of 9 and the curriculum is based soley on the principles of jihad for seem to be a lot. simon

and don were just 4 years old when i asked occupied their village in 2014. like many of the children they were abducted to syria and placed in a village near rocca. that. oh here is this man and she had her lyeth thailand this is their slack. with his gun. is this your school in syria now now in iraq. what did they teach of all the qur'an and other stuff i learned i usually just ask if the english 95th stage once i was in the schoolyard when they chopped a man's head off and they took another man tied his hands up and strung him up they

shot him from the back and then chopped his head off to you. his body fell down as she couldn't have a national. thing. jad imagine times they told us if we didn't repeat after them they'd round up everyone close to us so they'd be no one left to take care of us then we'd have to stay home all alone and they'd come and kill us because our money would only just. that it is awful 1st the children have to learn who the enemy is. and that the aim is to establish an islamic state that's the core message they firmly believe that they are the good guys their ideology stems directly from god their struggle is divine so all these boys want is to please god and their brothers in arms make sure that we're going to school. it's easier to condition small children if you tell

a 5 or 6 year old that santa claus is armed with a kalashnikov you'll believe you. rather take me with you the others on here yet we have to wait. now as a child becomes older what they're taught in the family that what they're doing is good and justified only becomes awful fired when they go to schools and people they trust such as teachers and nurses and other schoolchildren are all saying the same idea. the 2 boys were freed by kurdish forces in an attack on iran's positions and reunited with their family in iraqi kurdistan. by that time simon and i had forgotten their mother tongue they were highly aggressive hurling insults and unveiled women all men who smoked. showered with their families love and attention the boys needed months before they could begin coping with the horrific experiences and return to school and the life

and freedom. just put a so-called islamic state school is soley a production facility for fanatics many regular teachers went into exile. lina is a teacher threatened by us and syria she fled across the border to the turkish city of gaza on top. leno would have preferred to remain in syria where she secretly instructed her pupils in subjects banned by ass. and i should have had i was never afraid something would happen to me until the end we did what we could to oppose these people that found out that i knew they could do dreadful things to me much worse than anything i'd ever heard of any but i made

a very conscious decision to keep on doing what i was doing. that had a lot. today her syrian people as a refugee just like herself. under islamic state the children were never allowed to learn the subjects lina teaches. but there's you by now i think one of them that you don't want me i don't deny or care . if they're going to. cut you know. the i asked curriculum abolished subjects like philosophy and social studies it revise history in geography and reduced math to the simple addition of tanks and hand grenades.

teachers who refused to comply were arrested and executed to serve as a warning. many of his colleagues are dead or have gone into exile like a self and her brother gus one is also a teacher. and. i was for. it's terrible education was always a ray of hope for us. i taught middle and high school we had about 200 pupils. i fear a portion of those will have joined i guess voluntarily by now either out of ignorance or because they're poor and need money. we had hoped the young generation would build a better country but after i asked his conquests i fear for their future. the fed kids who are weaned on their ideology will find it hard to shake. the children who were little back then are now 15 or 20 and the long term i guess wants to use

them to build sleeper cells. and. 6000000 of these children learn that there is just one truth. they are allowed to decide for themselves what is right because that could give rise to doubt anyone who feels doubt and can make a decision enjoys a degree of freedom from these children don't experience that they learn there is just one truth thirdly. and according to i asked this one single truth can only be found in the qur'an. to prevent doubt from arising in these children i ask cuts off all ties to their previous lives. they're not allowed to have a family or home outside of the training camps. for large camps have been known to exist in iraq and soren syria and in mosul and telephone

in iraq. from a young age children are put through rigorous physical training. at the age of 7 they begin their basic training and weapons and military tactics at last several months. to don't make needles they're being forced to be vigilant at all times which is highly stressful. they're never allowed to relax us book off the peaceable pussy. at the end of the training there was

a graduation party of sorts but amid growing ayahs losses all the children have really become is cheap cannon fodder. to eat. the self-proclaimed i ask our fish began losing ground in iraq and syria after the battle of mosul in late 2016. i asked commanders then increasingly began to send children to the front a truly perfidious tactic. with a lawful if you see a kid with a machine gun just like before you realize what you're seeing your dad calls this it's a type of terror seeing children in such unimaginable situations of assault. on

the ground i asked was declared defeated in march 2019. but underground it's still plots terror attacks some with the help of children this propaganda video shows a boy steering a vehicle to overtake a military convoy before he blows himself up. even small children a used for suicide missions as documented here by iraqi soldiers in mosul. leaked. yeah it was so if i want you to shoot. my ass has nothing to lose by using and abusing children if their mission is successful the group achieves its goal. but even if it isn't the images of young suicide bombers attract international attention. so they use young children who have committed suicide bombings of

a died in the frontlines of war and they were these photos of them and make them into little celebrities so likely young child would worship a football there for example is young kids are worshipping other kids who have killed themselves in war and it's seen as an exciting thing that deserves to be rewarded so that's a very sophisticated idea of martyrdom as well. ali was 10 when he received his honest training like thousands of other boys he was being groomed as a couple of the comfort. them he was free by opposition fighters and reunited with his family. he now lives in turkey with his mother and sister. his friend mohamad didn't make it out alive. that they took his friend with them the next day he blew himself up. his body exploded there was nothing left. it was

ripped into small pieces totally shredded. many joined i.a.s. they had no idea that he made to die as martyrs they told me you can meet my hamad in paradise if you become a martyr and yes shaddy yes what did you reply to i said no i'd like to go to paradise but not through a suicide bombing they asked if i wanted to attack a school. national do you know why our yes uses young children. it's easier to brainwash them. it's like they have a remote control that's how much power they have the kids go wherever they're sent i saw with my own eyes how they strap explosives on to kids and sent them on a mission or made them drive a vehicle with a car bomb this that's why i didn't like them it was too much for me i don't trust

them anymore and if they come again for me i won't join them. as the family escaped his father stepped on a landmine. and as younger sister watched him die. another horrific shock for these deeply traumatized children just sticks. with his heart. if you can you tell me what you're drawing hundreds and i ask guy chucking someone's head off and a person who's been crucified had chopped off head and attacking planes. do you dream about stuff like this. and yes i do we all have nightmares.

of. the children who have undergone indoctrination and i as training camps include about 1500 from western european countries. almost 300 from germany a move in 500 from france. intelligence and security experts warn of the threat they pose should they return and of called for precautionary measures now we have a twofold problem we've got former extremists former terrorists and foreign fighters so we have individuals that are going to fight in countries like iraq and syria who are coming back not just as former terrorists but foreign fighters which makes it even more difficult to deal with. how do you deal with children who have undergone military training and experienced brutal

violence. can maybe read integrated into societies that uphold human rights freedom in the rule of law. the courthouse in brooklyn at paris houses the files of all the children who have returned to france from previously held i have territories. about 20 come back each year most of them are not yet 12. on their return french authorities immediately arrest the parents and place the children in state care. as is also the class we don't ask these children what did you do what did you see or hear we don't ask questions we just observe them they have to learn to adjust

naturally they feel somewhat lost they've been separated from their parents suddenly they're alone it's brutal to see your mom and dad handcuffed and taken away by police. we give them time to process it all then we let them tell us their story. our primary focus is finding the best conditions for their reintegration and protecting them as he does. every child is treated as an individual case and is given a chance even of some politicians or prosecutors called former child soldiers a security risk and describe them as ticking time bombs. seductress sure maybe some children really are ticking time bombs but if we say

they can't be saved then we are in the wrong line of work that would mean there is no point trying to protect children and juvenile delinquents. am i as a prosecutor supposed to say they cannot be saved in my opinion we need to do everything we possibly can to save them and avert the worst case scenario of europe you. help them cope with their experiences and put them into perspective and their heads everything is upside down may need to sort through their experiences put them in boxes put the boxes in cupboards and the coverage into the cellar then they can live in the house and they know the bad things are in the server.

no one knows just how many children and teenagers have returned to europe a survivors of i asked manipulation and tara. on both sides of the atlantic need to develop strategies to deal with the situation. we're dealing with an adversary that has no end. this will never stop i'll never forget bin laden in an interview saying i working on a 2000 year continuum if i don't do it my son will do it his son will do it his son will do it it will happen i would never see it but it will happen that's the problem with western thinking we think problem resources problem solved that's not how they think that's not how it works we underestimate their longevity underestimate their ability to sustain they may go away for a few years but they're never gone. the leave. i asked once the west to fear child soldiers and its new generation of jihadists

and it wants us to forget that these children are above all victims no pub a trace of so. many also hail from europe which makes the authorities there legally and morally obligated to take them back they matter how brainwashed they a few. should cost. when the difficult stuff was such a call while wish to hold. yourself was not even 10 when his family took him to syria in the summer of 2014 and turned him over to us as seen in this facebook video. that does something. for a just. image atrocity for us policy. there's been no sign of use of since. perhaps he has done. or he may come back one day

to france on to an uncertain future. eco india. how can a country's economy grow harmony with its people employment when there are doers look at the bigger picture india a country that faces many challenges and whose people are striving to create a sustainable future clever projects from europe and india. no. good shape.
