ICC Note: A new app developed by ISIS called Huroof, teaches kids how to target western tour site for terrorism. The app teaches kids how to pronounce words and speak arabic but also gives tips on blowing up landmarks like Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower and the Statue of Liberty. This is their next step in making their apocalyptic dreams a generation problem.

12/23/2016 Iraq (Christian Post): The Islamic State terror group has developed a mobile application to indoctrinate young children in Iraq and Syria by allowing them to blow up Western landmarks, including Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower and Statue of Liberty in 9/11 style attacks.

 

Called Huroof, or alphabet, the app also teaches youngsters to spell out words such as grenade and rocket, according to Col. John Dorrian, the spokesman for the international coalition fighting the Islamic State, which is also known as IS, ISIS, ISIL or Daesh.

The app “is supposed to teach them Arabic. But the words they learn are related to violence and extremism such as tanks and grenades,” Dorrian said in a statement, according to Iraqi News. “The children are rewarded if they say they are prepared to carry out attacks on the West, the targets are places like the Statue of Liberty, Big Ben and the Eiffel Tower.”

The “apocalyptic vision” of Islamic State “is of damaging society everywhere they have gained control. What they are trying to do is create a generational problem with their poisonous ideology,” he added.

“The reward for learning something in this app is to get points that they can use to select the terrorism target of their choice. Western landmarks that the child can choose and attack using a variety of weapons, including commercial airliners,” Dorrian said, according to the Daily Mail.
