ISIS Wives and Children Remain Loyal to Jihadists in Syrian Refugee Camp
(AFP) Stabbing guards, stoning aid workers and flying the Islamic State's black flag, the wives and children of the "caliphate" are sticking by the jihadists in the Kurdish-run Al-Hol refugee camp in northeastern Syria. Swarming around an AFP journalist, women clad in black praised Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, saying they are waiting for orders from their leader. Kurdish authorities have repeatedly warned that the children of jihadists represent a "time bomb" the world urgently needs to defuse. Without rehabilitation and reintegration, these children could become future "terrorists," they have warned.
