        The scene where the Yazidi mother sitting with her son next to her is heart breaking. She looks like she doesn’t love the child because she might have conceived him against her wish. But the poor child wouldn’t know or understand that. What a difficult situation 😞pic.twitter.com/HPHCT6ZWHf

        The 11 year old boy wants to be a jihadist. Many 11 year old boys want to be pilots or firefighters or teachers. He’ll be lucky to make it to 19. This cancer of a religious ideology needs to be killed and never resurrected.

        Oh, absolutely. And there is no repentance. But I feel such pity for those little children. What will become of them.

        There is no such thing as called caliphate at the moment. It's a western scam and you know this very well. This project was created by Powers and being used to manipulate your own society. That's all.

        It's a testament to the compassion and humanitarianism of the SDF that these filthy creatures are still permitted to espouse their ideology instead of being lined up and shot.
