Taliban tries to recruit boy suicide bomber

This is a follow up on a story I posted earlier. I am glad to hear the full story from the kid. THe Islamists don't care about Islam, only the power they can gather with their intolerant version of Islam. I feel so sorry for the children of the Islamic world while the terrorists are in control.

CANOE -- CNEWS - Canada: Taliban tries to recruit boy suicide bomber: "Juma said that sometime last month Taliban fighters forced him to wear a vest they said would spray out flowers when he touched a button. He said they told him that when he saw American soldiers, “throw your body at them.”

The militants cornered Juma in a Taliban-controlled district in southern Afghanistan’s Ghazni province. Their target was an impoverished youngster being raised by an older sister — but also one who proved too street-smart for their plan.


“When they first put the vest on my body I didn’t know what to think, but then I felt the bomb,” Juma told The Associated Press as he ate lamb and rice after being introduced to the elders at this joint U.S.-Afghan base in Ghazni. “After I figured out it was a bomb, I went to the Afghan soldiers for help.”

While Juma’s story could not be independently verified, local government leaders backed his account and the U.S. and NATO military missions said they believed his story."
