Raising up the next generation of bloodthirsty killers dedicated to destroying the free world. But relax! They’re a tiny minority of extremists who have nothing whatsoever to do with Islam!
Note the raised index finger gesture that has become the hallmark of adherents of the Islamic State. We saw it from other adherents of the Islamic State here and here — and that’s just today. Muslim students disrupting Pamela Geller’s talk at Brooklyn College in April made the signal as well — although Islamic supremacists and enlightened Leftists at the time heaped scorn on the idea that they could possibly mean that they were supporters of the Islamic State. Of course. The very idea is inconceivable, isn’t it?
“Kazakh IS Militant Posts Photos Of Central Asian ‘Caliphate Cubs,'” by Joanna Paraszczuk, RFE/RL, June 16, 2015:
A social-media account run by an Islamic State (IS) militant who claims to be from Kazakhstan has posted a number of photographs of Central Asian children, some of whom he claims are ethnic Kyrgyz.
The militant, who calls himself Artyom, maintained an account on the Russian-language social network VKontakte until it was blocked on June 13. RFE/RL has obtained screen grabs of several of his posts, including those where he posted photographs of Central Asian children.
Artyom claimed on his VKontakte account that he is from Atyrau, Kazakhstan’s main Caspian Sea port. He posted a photograph of himself on June 9 sitting in front of a store with two small boys whom he claimed were Kyrgyz children. The boys, both of whom appear to be under the age of 10, are dressed in military fatigues.
A search of the photos on Artyom’s blocked account, however, shows that the militant appears to have deleted the photograph of the Kyrgyz children before his account was banned, perhaps because the picture attracted the attention of reporters and of Kyrgyzstan’s State Committee for National Security (GKNB).
On June 13, the pro-Kremlin Russian-language website Sputnik.kg reported that the GKNB said it was examining the photograph. “This information should be checked. There are representatives of several nations there [in IS-controlled territories] who are similar in appearance to us. This situation needs to be clarified,” official GKNB spokesman Rahat Sulaymanov was quoted as saying.
On May 28, Sulaymanov said that according to official figures there were some 300 Kyrgyz citizens fighting alongside IS militants in Syria. Some of the militants had taken their families with them, including “up to 10 small children,” Sulaymanov was quoted as saying.
The Interior Ministry’s Antiterrorism 10th Department said that there were 352 Kyrgyz nationals in Syria and Iraq, of whom 49 are women and 22 are minors, the 24.kg website reported on June 15….

“Note the raised index finger gesture that has become the hallmark of adherents of the Islamic State.”
Raising the index finger in Islam is called Sabbabah which affirms the Shahadatan including that Allah is a unique one (one finger) and that He is not triune as we Christians believe.
As an adherent of Christianity I affirm my belief by what is written in:
Exodus 34:14 — for you shall not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous [Triune] God.
The Muslim world believes in one sole god (hence the one finger salute) as a
monotheistic god in contrast to Christianity’s belief of a polytheistic Triune God.
“Monotheism has been criticized as a cause of ignorance, oppression and violence”

Triune God (aka) Holy Trinity,

BTW, It has been heard that Pope Francis is saying that ‘Muslims and Christians pray to the same God.” Hmm…. how could it be?
We should petition against this heresy. When Christianity and the Muslim’s Islam religion is opposite of each others convictions. Mercy verses contempt!
Edward says
If this is such the case, we the non-believers of Islam are behooved to this radical movement…….held bondage to them….by own leaders…..our own POTUS or the Pope in Rome. Perhaps its time to contemplate about this reality, but not over react. Considering the virtue of Courage is a must in these times!
duh_swami says
As most posters here already know, Allah is not ‘god’. If you read the Bible and read the Quran it is obvious that the ”one God’ didn’t write both these books…If that’s the case, Allah was unhappy with his first book, The Bible, because he made too many errors…So he wrote or had written, his second book, which not only abrogated the parts about love, but ordered Mahoundians to fight and kill unbelieving kuffar unless they submit.
What this means to religious kuffar is that if Allah is the true god, he hates your guts and wants you killed, and ‘that’ is what you pray too…if you believe it’s all one god…The wise know better…
Kepha says
Holy smokes! Back in the 1970’s, one raised index finger signified to many “One Way: Jesus Christ” and was used by the folks then called “Jesus freaks” (Uncle Kepha was and remains one). It meant we hoped people would have life in Christ and have it abundantly (cf. John 10), not that we were out to kill anyone.
RonaldB says
There was a story about Bertrand Russell, who was jailed as a conscientious objector during World War I. The warden of the prison asked Russell what religion he was.
Russell replied “I’m an atheist.”
The warden thought a moment and said, “I haven’t heard of that one. But, I suppose we all worship the same god.”
mortimer says
Making children soldiers is the worst kind of child abuse. They teach them to hate and kill and deprive them of their childhood when they should be learning and playing.
This is one of the greatest crimes.
particolor says
They sucked at Schoolwork and Marbles so converted to Islam !
PRCS says
And when the shooting starts, they children–if they are holding weapons–it will be necessary to maim or kill them, too.
Kepha says
Mortimer: Not too long ago I read Sun Shuyun’s book on the Long March, based on interviews with some of its last survivors. I did the math and figured that the people interviewed were, well, child soldiers. Moral of the story: if you want to get away with a great moral evil, be sure you succeed in your revolution.

Further to their comments, it appears that the gesture is not limited to the Caliphate Cubs. In August 2014, President Obama purposefully displayed the same gesture to delegates at a US-African Leaders Conference held in Washington, DC.

The adage, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” reveals much about the origin of Obama’s overt campaign of hostility toward Israel, Jews and Christians. His foreign policy initiatives, behind-closed-door deals, numerous speeches, and complete failure to implement a viable strategy against ISIS are but symptoms of a greater disease: “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.” The winds have shifted.
