That's nothing new, really. I've seen things like that on TV for years. The thing is before it was just considered a crime, and the government didn't do much about it. Now these things are being seen as an act of war, and people are now noticing it in a different light, but in alot of countries it's not anything rare for kids to enter militant services at an early age.

it was just so disturbing! it was a tape of a show in palestine called "the children's club". the kids were singing about becoming suicide bombers!

I hate to say it, but one of those kids just might be on CNN someday.

Yup, happens all the time. I'm guessing you didn't see the news story a few years ago about the 12-year-old twins in some Asian country or another who were the leaders of their own guerilla group... sigh.
