Two men will not be allowed to fight on ground with ISIS as they are too fat, a local radio station reported Monday.

“Two of them, they are quite obese; they are not good foot soldiers,” Jamal Rifi, a leading Islamic community leader, told a Sydney radio station.

“I mean, they are over 140kg and people who are going to see them there, they are going to realize, what are they going to do with them? ‘You are going to eat our food and you can’t even run on the field?’ Rifi added.

The 2 men traveled with their two other brothers to fight alongside ISIS earlier this year.

The brothers told their mother in a text message about their decision saying: “We made it to Bilad al-Sham, we will see you in Paradise.”

More than two dozen Australians, including two suicide bombers, are already thought to have died fighting in Syria and Iraq.
