hmmm...i dont think the kid LITERALLY meant that he would do that...i think he was jus tryna show the intensity of his patriotism by saying that he would even lay down his life for his country...that's the strength of the emotion he felt...
doesn't mean he's actually gona go n do suicide bombing

Im sure he wont, but the fact that he was asked this question is my biggest problem with this. The fact that he knew enough about such things to say he would commit suicide is bad enough (at ten years old, I doubt Ii could have come up with something like that), but the host then had the rest of the kids applaud him, which further instilled this whole thing in his and all the rest of the childrens minds... Do we really want this from our kids?!?!? And then they wonder how our society can produce so many Jihadis and militants... Well, its starts here, at shows like this. Multiply this by the thousands of other such examples and you have an entire generation of disgruntled would be militants...
This is classic brainwashing of the worst kind.
