Blond boy identified as future terrorist

A new anti-terrorism effort aimed at al-Qaida-inspired youths in Britain has turned up a blond 12-year-old schoolboy from West Yorkshire.

The youth came to the attention of authorities after he sent videos of terrorists beheading Westerners to his classmates, The Telegraph reported Wednesday.

"That was bad enough but he also has an unnatural interest in guns and weapons," Norman Bettison, chief constable of West Yorkshire, told The Telegraph.

Bettison said the boy spoke openly of his wish to be a sniper and told authorities he wondered what it would be like to kill someone.

"He is being influenced and intoxicated by the imagery and appeal of jihadist and other Internet violence," Bettison said.

The boy, who arrived in Britain as an asylum seeker in 2005, allegedly assisted two youths in the rape of his sister but was never prosecuted, police revealed.

He is among 120 people who police are dealing with as part of a new anti-terrorism effort aimed at al-Qaida-inspired youths, The Telegraph said.

Last days are hear

The Bible predicts in the last days no man will be able to trust his neighbor and sons will rise against fathers. We've witnessed this to a certain extent with every war, but each war becomes more violent. Get your family ready for the LORD to come

Getting caught doing something wrong and not getting prosecuted sends the wrong message. He sees society as weak and ready to be taken advantage of without any repercussions.

BLOND TERRORISTS

The terrorists are recruiting those who do not outwardly resemble Arab adults. Parents will have to be on their guard against those who would use their children as suicide bombers.
