Isis have decided to strike fear into the hearts of their enemies with the most terrifying of animals: chickens.

Yep, the terror group are apparently creating ‘suicide chickens’ – and that picture above is supposed to be one of the birds with a suicide vest on.

In one of their propaganda videos the Islamic State claim they have been strapping explosive devices onto the chickens and letting them wander into enemy camps, before using remote controls to detonate them.

It is unknown if these images, which have been shared hundreds of times, were actually produced by Isis or if they are fake.

However some experts say these sort of drastic tactics, if real, could mean the terror group are running low on ammo following over a year of almost continuous warfare and having supply lines bombed by US-led forces.

An unnamed British man fighting alongside Kurdish troops against Isis told the Daily Star: ‘Isis will use whatever means they can to bring death and destruction. Using animals has little military value – it is just another example of how their twisted minds enjoy dreaming up bizarre ways to kill people.’

Poor chickens. :(
 
They don't need to use chickens, which are, after all, good for other things.

They have hundreds of idealistic Westerners lining up to join their cause and do it.

Three sisters who have fled to Syria to join Isis with their nine children had already been stopped from leaving the UK in March
  • Khadija, Sugra and Zohra Dawood were removed from flight bound for Saudi Arabia
  • They were put through security checks but subsequently allowed to travel
  • West Yorkshire Police say one of Bradford mothers says she is in Syria
  • Three sisters and their 9 children believed to have gone to Islamic State

Ironic because ISIS is a bunch of chickens.
 
As I said, "who needs chickens"?

ISIS’s official media wing in Iraq’s Dijla province released a new video Wednesday that boasts the terror group’s boy fighters and ups the ante of a bellicose propaganda campaign championing child soldiers.

The video, called “The Cubs of Dijla” in a reference to the young boys being indoctrinated and groomed to fight, shows children as the clip’s primary speakers. They deliver monologues and recite verses of the Quran, marking the first time the Islamic State has depicted boys—one as young as three—speaking at length directly into the camera.

“Where are the martrys? Where are the suicide attackers?” a young boy asks, urging Muslims and Arabs to stop talking and start acting. “Give me my weapon,” he declares as he grabs a gun almost as long as his body. He later fires the rifle.
