How has Agu has changed from his earliest days as a soldier? How are we to understand Agu's murderous impulses?

Answer: Today, there are an estimated 300,000 warrior children in the world.

Explanation:

Agu is the main protagonist of the movie "Beasts of no nation". He talks about the involvement of children as soldiers in the war. This problem is real and is most widespread in wars across Africa. When asked how children become such cruel killers, more answers can be offered. First, many militant groups engage children because it is easier to influence children.

Constant brainwashing is more effective on someone who is not yet mature enough and has no established views on morality, politics, society, someone whose empathy is at a low level of development. It is also easier for children to be intimidated, and this contributes to this fact. The mentioned groups also use vast quantities of narcotics and give them to children, which is why extremely violent behaviour occurs.
