Al-Qaeda's sickening propaganda stunt uses infants, children
A tiny girl aged barely two sucks her fingers in childish innocence while grasping an AK-47 assault rifle almost as big as her.
The tot, in full Muslim dress, was made to pose with the weapon dubbed the "Widowmaker" as part of a sickening propaganda stunt staged by extremists of the Islamic Jihad Union, linked to al-Qaeda, reports The Sun.
The group which targets British and US troops from lairs on the Afghan border with Pakistan also pictured the girl and five other toddlers with heavy weapons in front of a black Islamic flag.
Three boys, aged five or six, wield rifles in another chilling image posted online.
Tory MP and former soldier Patrick Mercer said, "This is a most immoral use of young children."
Bunglawala, of the Muslim Council of Britain, said, "It can never be acceptable to use children in this appalling manner for cheap propaganda purposes."
