THE United States military has dropped 60,000 gruesome leaflets near the northern Syrian city of Raqqa that depict potential Islamic State recruits being fed into a meat grinder.
The cartoons, part of a campaign to undermine the IS extremists’ own extensive propaganda and recruiting efforts, were dropped in a canister by an F-15E fighter jet last week.
“The message of this leaflet is: if you find yourself recruited by Daesh, you will find yourself in a meat grinder — and it’s not beneficial to your health,” said Pentagon spokesman Colonel Steven Warren, using the Arabic acronym for the IS group.
