Saudi father Nasser al-Shayeq has two young boys, Abdullah and Ahmed. They are 11 and 10 years old respectively. They are Abdullah and Ahmed are the latest to join the ISIS terrorists in Syria. As usual, Reuters refers to ISIS as ‘militants’, not terrorists. Nasser al-Shayeq posted a picture of his two young sons of the two sons crouching in front of Islamic State’s black flag, with AK-47 rifles. One of the boys also held a grenade in his other hand. This comes just days after an Australian Muslim posted a picture to twitter of his seven year old hold a severed head cut off by his father.

The pan-Arab al-Hayat newspaper said on Tuesday that the unsuspecting mother had been told that her sons, Abdullah and Ahmed, were going on holiday with their father, identified as Nasser al-Shayeq, in a neighboring Gulf Arab country when she saw an Instagram photo of them in Turkey.
Al-Hayat said she telephoned her son to ask about the photo, only to receive a message from her ex-husband, a former Saudi civil servant, to say that he was taking the boys to Syria to join Islamic State, one of the most militant groups fighting to topple President Bashar al-Assad.
“Count your children as birds in heaven,” Shayeq said in his message, according to al-Hayat, suggesting that they may be killed and become young “martyrs”.
