Daesh Raising Generation of Children-Jihadists on Occupied Territories

The Daesh "teachers" indoctrinate children in schools, make them witness public executions and watch the terror group's violent videos, according to the report.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The Islamic State (ISIL or Daesh) jihadist group is raising a generation of children trained in doctrine of hatred and religious extremism on the occupied territories, according to a London-based think tank's report.

The report titled "Children of Islamic State" prepared by the Quilliam think tank is expected to be presented in the British parliament on March 9, The Guardian newspaper reported Saturday.

"The [Daesh] organisation… focuses a large number of its efforts on indoctrinating children through an extremism-based education curriculum, and fostering them to become future terrorists. The current generation of fighters sees these children as better and more lethal fighters than themselves, because rather than being converted into radical ideologies they have been indoctrinated into these extreme values from birth, or a very young age," the news outlet quoted the report.

The Daesh "teachers" indoctrinate children in schools, make them witness public executions and watch the terror group's violent videos, the authors of the report said.

According to the report, it seems that the Islamists have studied the Hitler Youth organization of the Nazi Party in Germany.
