Iranians don't scruple to use children as pawns in warfare. During the Iran-Iraq war, they recruited (willingly or otherwise) thousands of children for "martyrdom" operations.

I wonder who's children these are. My bet is those who do not like the present regime in Iran do not want their kids as human shields.

When you see Palestinian mothers who say they are proud their sons were martyred I see no reason to believe these kids parents have no problem with this.
