Quite shocking!!

I happened to read the same article this morning on the newspaper as well. I was shocked to note that they could do this to a 14 year old boy and pay him 1 US$ for getting strapped with explosives and delivering it across. Terrorist organisations find children/ teens a good choice because they are innocent, can be easily influenced and if caught don't face much of torture at the hands of the army/ police

To tell you an incident, I was in India in a place called Deoria. I came across a boy - eight years or so who had lost his hand, he was begging for alms. I called him over gave him food and got to speak to him.

I happened to ask him how he lost his hand. He told me that he was assembling a crude bomb and the bomb just went off. Ever since his employer chucked him off and he is jobless. And his parents are too poor to feed him. Sorry I shot tangentially.

Not that this child has anything to do with the article that you have posted, but a child is a child is a child and we ( human race) use them for our own machinations and Machiavellian deeds..

I remember the song- Sweet child of mine by GNR and also - Sleeping Child - by MLTR. - they profound the virtue of a child.
