al Qaeda tortures boy for 2 years

[Tyguy]

Khidir was just 6 years old when he was savagely ripped away from his family, kidnapped by al Qaeda operatives in Iraq.

"They beat me with a shovel, they pulled my teeth out with pliers, they would go like this and pull it," said Khidir, now 8, demonstrating with his hands. "And they would make me work on the farm gathering carrots."

Harsh.

I guess that stopped him from eating the carrots.

read the bit ab0ut the acid - lovely. actually, bother that i'll just post it:

Nothing better demonstrated Brusca's ruthlessness than the kidnapping and murder of 11-year-old Giuseppe Di Matteo. The boy's father, Santo Di Matteo, took part in the 1992 Falcone killing and later informed on others involved in the plot. Brusca kidnapped the boy in November 1993. He was told that they were taking him to see his father, who was in hiding. Instead they held the boy for 26 months, during which they tortured him and sent grisly photos to his father to force him to retract his testimony.[3] Di Matteo made a desperate trip to Sicily to try to negotiate his son's release. The boy was finally strangled on the orders of Giovanni Brusca. Subsequently the body was dissolved in a barrel of acid to destroy the evidence.

That was in ITALY, a western democracy.

QFT:

"Bad stuff happens everywhere"

The girl will regardless, most likely have scars for life.

What's a 14 year old girl doing alone on a night train. Probably putting on make-up and shit. Why.
