After his arrest, investigators found the 12-year-old had been gorging on videos of decapitation and torture, including 1,739 jihadi videos and bomb-making tutorials.

The boy’s descent began with Quran searches and led to encrypted chats and ultraviolent propaganda from extremist groups like Islamic State. French prosecutor Paul-Edouard Lallois warned he risked becoming a “completely dehumanized soldier.”

Across Europe, minors are increasingly appearing on terror radars, with France’s anti-terror unit charging 19 minors in 2023 alone.

Extremist content is just a click away, with radicalization sometimes beginning through violent pornography or a fascination for gory images, leading to jihadi decapitations.

    lol how is pointing out that Christianity also creates violence defending terrorists? You’re fucking deranged man. Stop trying to promote christofascism through sheer force of stupidity.

      Insults aren’t going to make people blind to reality dude, no matter how warm and fuzzy they make you feel inside.

            It’s always funny to me when people who believe in magic try to condescend to me about reality. You’re a hilarious person.

              Do you realize how blatantly obvious it is to identify someone who has put exactly zero effort into understanding religions? Just because you surround yourself with virtual yes-men doesn’t make your perceptions correct.

              Keep that up and you might end up making a fool of yourself, like all those seniors who went out to protest Tesla dealerships, not realizing that today’s youth don’t actually like them or their ideals very much, having to grow up in the fallout of their progressive utopia.

                Pfft. You have no idea what you’re talking about. All religions are personal beliefs that can be co-opted by powerfull forces and changed into abhorrent cults that end up murdering people.

                Christianity is at the forefront of that. Forced/enforced adherence to ‘shared commonality’ doesn’t make for a free people. It only helps birth more cogs for the machine. And you pointing specifically at Islam simply shows your inherent racism and simple lack of knowledge and wisdom.

              You kidding? Mods around here don’t allow things that challenge the orthodoxy too succinctly.

                What a funny way to phrase that with the argument you’re trying to make. You just have absolutely no self awareness, do ya pal?
