This is just so perverse and evil that I have to suspect that this is an act of desperation on the part of AQI. They understand our moral values, so they think that using kids as soldiers will change the rules of engagement.

A new propaganda video from the al Qaeda-linked Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) features small children with AK-47 assault rifles. The narrator of the video refers to these young boys as the "new generation" of mujahedeen.

The narrator is heard over the footage saying, "In conclusion we say to
Bush, the Muslim ummah [Muslim community] that you have tried with all
your strength to wage war against, is an ummah [community] that will
never die. And it has, with the blessings of God, allotted for you a
new generation of Mujjahideen."
