Somalia: Convert killed, four children kidnapped

They will (of course) be forced to convert to Islam... and to be trained as soldiers:
Fataho was a long-time Christian deeply involved in the activities of the small, secret Christian community, sources said. Area Christians said they suspected someone had informed the insurgents of Fataho’s faith.
The assailants abducted his wife and children, later releasing her on the condition that she surrender the little ones to be trained as soldiers, sources said.
We know they have taken the children to brain-wash them, to change their way of life from Christian to Muslim and to teach them the Quran,” said one source. “Al Shabaab was aware that her husband was a Christian, but they were not sure of her faith.”
Yeah, I'm hearing the international outcry after the deep coverage made by CNN, BBC and Al-Jazeera.

Oh, wait... there is none....
