Well theoretically as soon as she is in mainland Europe, with the EU zone, she'll likely be deported here. Unless I am missing something is this a crime isn't it? Running off to join ISIS?

I think it's easier said than done for her and her baby to leave Syria without any papers, though. Maybe Syria and the UK will make a deal to return all the British citizens in that camp but we don't have a good relationship with the Syrian regime.
I assume ISIS membership is a crime as it's a prohibited organisation.

Lord Dannatt explained: "It's not right to say 'the Americans can take her and the other fighters and stick them in Guantanamo'."
But he cautioned it was mistaken to believe IS was "100% defeated".
"The ideology, the thinking, the support behind it, that is going to continue," he said. "And that will remain the struggle for this generation, perhaps even the next generation as well."

Is that right? Did she not leave the UK on a British passport?

On her sister's passport.



Won't she have acquired Dutch citizenship from her marriage?


Quote:
Ms Begum was first tracked down by The Times. In an interview published on 13 February, she said she was heavily pregnant and had lost two children.
Asked if she was aware of IS beheadings before going to Syria, she told Sky News: "I knew about those things and I was OK with it. Because, you know, I started becoming religious just before I left.
"From what I heard, Islamically that is all allowed."
Comforting to hear.

Good god. Are you seriously saying that the child should be refused entry because it has done nothing wrong YET? Every newborn has the chance of turning out bad, just as every newborn has the chance of turning out good? Do you punish everyone in case they turn out bad?

Terrorism isn't an exclusively Islamic thing. On the contrary, the worst terrorists are often white, and not Muslims. The right wing extremists are apparently a far worse problem internationally, and we seem to be doing our utmost to appease them.

Do I think the girl should return. Actually, assuming the reports I have read are accurate, no. I am concerned that she still doesn't appear to think she has done anything wrong, and doesn't appear to understand why people are wary. However, we, as a country, cannot change our rules just because of one person. We cannot make her an exception.

This part of this post may come across as patronising. If it does, I apologise, patronising or offending others is not my intent, but I think society (this applies to everyone, but particularly to Muslim society) has a problem. The young feel that their elders are not listening to them, and not allowing them to question their elders. The young are frequently wrong, but so are people from every age group.

This is isolating the young from their elders and is causing resentment. Feelings of Resentment and isolation that various groups (including ISIS) have proved effective at using to radicalise people. I am not Muslim myself, but I base that opinion on talking to many Muslim friends.

I've seen several documentaries where they talked to people that ISIS groomed, and, in the beginning at least, when ISIS recruiters approached people they thought were vulnerable on social media, they just made friends online and encouraged people to talk about their problems, then offered a "solution", frequently promising a luxury lifestyle, the cost of which they didn't reveal, which ultimately involved moving to an ISIS territory and joining ISIS.

I think Technology, while being a massive help to us, is also a massive part of this problem. When I was at school, we were taught not to trust strangers, often watching horrifying public information films featuring kids being enticed in to knackered old Datsuns never to be seen again. Social media can force us to talk to strangers, but it also enables them to hide their true identity and we may build up a trust with a stranger who is lying to us without us knowing. That is not good.

This is especially true of the present Islamic community however this will change when the next generation is "Western Radicalised".

Yes we have a justice system but why should I and others help contribute our hard earned tax contributions towards the possible court hearings/cases.

Well I don't think we should go out of our way to get her back but if she ends up here then I think that's the proper way to handle it.

Re: 3 girls going to Syria

She's given another interview saying the Manchester bombings were justified now, makes me wonder if she actually wants to come back at all, which suits me just fine actually, Syria is welcome to you. I hear her patents have been blaming every one but themselves and her to, the school, the council blah blah, perhaps they should look a little closer to home
