BEIRUT — The Islamic State has said the son of its top leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been killed fighting Syrian government forces. The announcement of the death of Baghdadi’s young son appeared on the group’s social media accounts late Tuesday. It included a picture of a youth carrying a rifle and identified him as Huthaifa al-Badri. The statement, dated this month, said he was an elite fighter, known as an ‘‘inghimasi,’’ who was killed while fighting Syrian and Russian troops at a power station in the central Homs province. It did not specify when he was killed.

Could be a ruse. No sympathy from this quarter.

He looks like a child to me. No sympathy for the father who sent his son into a meat grinder. Sorrow for the boy who will never fulfill his potential.
A brainwashed kid.
That wouldn't hesitate to put a .45 slug in the back of your head.
His potential was killing "infidels". Good riddance.
Honestly, I'm struggling to post anything in this thread because I don't feel sorry for him or daddy. He was never going to grow up, spawned to die, I think the only thing left now is for daddy to join him... just feel sorry for all those virgins.
He's been separated from Daddy for a while now and didn't leave ISIS.
I can only assume he was where he wanted to be. Fighting to the end.
Syria and Iraq would surely have hung him.
A brainwashed kid.
All young soldiers are brainwashed kids.

Young? You mean child?
If you mean Western, educated volunteers, that's lunacy.

Actually, I was thinking of young western draftees, the kind I served with in the rice paddies. Yes, brainwashed kids, just like I was.
Today's volunteers are pretty much in the same boat. Without indoctrination and dogma, the military cannot operate.
I joined the Royal Navy when I was 16. I did not think then, and I do not think now, that I was 'brainwashed'.

Of course you don't. That is testimony to how well the indoctrination worked with you. Obviously, individuals react to indoctrination in different ways. Just recently a USMA cadet, having served a few tours as an enlisted man, walked away from the indoctrination. So did Daniel Ellsberg and many other conscientious objectors.
