ISIS: A Dangerous Weapon

Decent Essays
One problem in this world is that children are being used as soldiers.

Their normal lives are being taken away because they are trained to kill. ISIS is kidnapping kids and training them to be soldiers. They don't see them as children anymore they see them as a weapon that can sneak in anywhere,stay hidden,making them a dangerous weapon. kids are being forced to be suicide bombers,guards,they are being tortured and scared.

The rest of the world just watches kids get trained to kill and we can't do much about it once they are brainwashed into thinking that killing is good regardless of what others tell them. But are we helping as much as we could and trying to stop ISIS from taking the children away from their families. I don't know weather

    Images last week from an ISIS video appearing to show a child executing a hostage were horrific.

    If we take away their territory, they cease to be a caliphate, a tempting argument for the US to intervene in the situation. But, as Wood mentioned in his article ISIS wants the US to invade.
