Al-Qaida camp trained children to plant IEDs
LONDON – Officers in Britain's MI6 intelligence service, working alongside Pakistani intelligence officers in that nation's remote North West province, have located a training camp where children, some as young as six years old, were being trained as suicide bombers, according to a report in Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.
The camp – one of several al-Qaida training camps in the region – is under the direct control of the terror group.
The intelligence officers led Pakistani Special Forces to the children's camp outside the village of Spinkai in the mountainous region.
An MI6 report on the school describes it as "a classroom equipped with documents and gadgets for the children to learn how to carry out suicide bomber attacks. There was also evidence they had been subjected to intense religious indoctrination. As well as the Quran, there were texts by bin Laden. There also was video footage of successful attacks on targets in Iraq and Afghanistan."
Al-Qaida is known to have a unit that films attacks.
In one of the DVDs was footage of the children receiving instruction from a masked man. Like all the children, he wore a white headband inscribed with verses from the Quran. In the footage he is demonstrating various kinds of hand grenades.
The transcription of the tape by MI6 linguists in London revealed the information was instructing the pupils on how to plant roadside improvised explosive devices, IEDs.
During the operations in the area, Special Forces rounded up boys who admitted they had received suicide bomber training at the school. They had fled with their instructors before the intelligence-led team raided the building.
