Islamic State jihadists are reportedly distributing a coloring book that teaches the next generation about the Arabic alphabet using graphics of weapons, including an AK-47, hand grenade and apparent suicide vest.
The black flag of ISIS is on the cover, the Daily Caller reports.
Counter-terrorism adviser Michael S. Smith II of Kronos Advisory tweeted out some of the workbook graphics, and shared screenshots with the news website Heavy.com.
The workbook is a sequel to the June release of Huroof, also an alphabet teaching app for non-Arabic speaking children of Islamists, Heavy.com reported.
The Daily Caller reports that ISIS emphasizes indoctrinating children as young as 5 with its "Cubs of the Caliphate," created in 2014; younger children are put into religious schools while older boys go straight to military training camps, the Daily Caller has reported.
