Assassination attempt for Abu Nimr al-Suri who booby-trapped his daughter Fatima and detonated her in the center of the capital Damascus

This is, this is indeed the depths of depravity and wretched, I've held off 2 times posting this, once on Christmas day, yesterday:

Assassination attempt for Abu Nimr al-Suri who booby-trapped his daughter Fatima and detonated her in the center of the capital Damascus

The original story was one of those making me wonder if it was true:

Videos apparently show Syrian father encouraging daughters, aged 7 and 8, to blow themselves up

Two videos have emerged apparently showing a Syrian man proudly sending his young daughters to undertake a suicide mission.

In the first, Abu Nimr films his wife, whose face is covered with the burqa, with the two girls.

“Why are you sending your daughters?” he asks from behind the camera. “One is seven and the other is eight, they're young for jihad.”

“No one is too young for jihad, because jihad is a duty for every Muslim,” Um Nimr replies.

Some stories are total propaganda; some are true, some are written by a hostile press such as in Iran or even pro-Erdogan press in Turkey.

The poor girls if this is true.

Edit On: Middle Eastern Eye covered this story, I was looking for other sources:

http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/syrian-militant-who-sent-his-daughter-suicide-mission-killed-279555819  (Report says man has been killed)

Al Bawaba, that news source, seems to be out of Jordan so somewhat credible.

Syrian militant who sent daughter on suicide mission in Damascus, killed
Abu Nimr was killed in Damascus just weeks after he filmed his daughters talking about how they would carry out a suicide attack

A militant who sent his nine year old daughter on a suicide mission in Damascus earlier this month was killed in his home on Sunday.

Abdurrahman Shadad, otherwise known as Abu Nimr al-Souri, was killed by an assassin linked to the former Al-Qaeda affiliate Fateh al-Sham (JFS), reported the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).

The monitor initially reported that Nimr had been killed by "unknown militiamen" but later confirmed that someone from Fateh al-Sham had killed the militant in the Syrian neighbourhood of Tishreen, located on the outskirts of Damascus.

These people are beyond comprehension.

So according to Middle East Eye, he was shot and killed, Their article is informative; should have possibly been the head story here.

It makes me wonder a bit, don't they have Damascus under control more or less, to keep people like this fellow out? And as it was, he was slain by "rebels" or Islamists, not the government.

Odd story.
