This utterly disgusting and in-human! The worthless UN should act on this and sanction that US for promoting and funding illegal war in every part of the world....
Members of an American-backed rebel group in Syria beheaded a young child in a grisly execution video.
The footage surfaced early Tuesday of members of Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki and a captured child in Handarat, near Aleppo. The young boy, who appears to be prepubescent, is then executed on the back of a pickup truck.
The gruesome videotaped murder of a child drew outrage on social media and the promise of an inquiry from the group’s leadership, which has previously received U.S.-made weapons and American funding. The group no longer gets such backing. But it’s also renewed questions about which rebels the American government has supported in Syria’s ongoing civil war.

"the promise of an inquiry from the group’s leadership,"...so the group don't know, and neither do you, if their members were involved???
Just for the sake of discussion...if China asserts their territorial claims near your area which country would yours be crying out to help them???

Despite being the Philippines’ long-term security ally, President Rodrigo Duterte slams the United States anew saying it wreaked havoc to its own country through “importing” terrorism.
