LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - We've heard about the beheadings and we've heard about many other brutally horrific execution methods, but this news is something completely unheard of.

"The booby-trapping of the baby was a training mission for Isis to teach its elements the booby-trapping mechanisms," stated Sadiq al-Husseini, head of the security committee in Diyala province, to Iraqi news. "The organization does not care for the most basic human values."

The child's father was arrested and executed for killing several ISIS militants, according to al-Husseini. The mother's location is unclear. The baby was made a part of the training as punishment for its father's attacks.

With a remote control detonator, the helpless infant was completely destroyed by explosives and used to show other terrorists how to create an improvised explosive device.

The sickening display of hatred is believed to have taken place near ash-Sharqat in the northern Iraqi province of Salahuddin, according to the Daily Mail.

Other reports of ISIS' heartless attacks on youth include the use of teenage fighters as suicide bombers. The radicalized 14-year-olds face their demise in detonating trucks of explosives placed along enemy lines.

ISIS is also known for training young boys with weapons and the Qu'ran as the 'cubs of the caliphate,' where they interact as ISIS militants.

Something needs to be done; ISIS' acts of terror continue to grow into more horrific and unimaginable methods.

"10 Finally, let the mighty strength of the Lord make you strong. 11 Put on all the armor that God gives, so you can defend yourself against the devil's tricks. 12 We are not fighting against humans. We are fighting against forces and authorities and against rulers of darkness and powers in the spiritual world. 13 So put on all the armor that God gives. Then when that evil day[a] comes, you will be able to defend yourself. And when the battle is over, you will still be standing firm." Ephesians 6:10-13 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
