//A schoolgirl who left the UK to join Islamic State in Syria is feared to have been killed in an airstrike in the country.

Kadiza Sultana was one of three teenage girls who fled east London and entered Syria via Turkey last year.

Her family say they were hoping to get her across the border and into Turkey before she died, after she became disillusioned with life in Syria.//

Will this deter others with similarly idealistic notions?

probably not..silly wee girls....spilt milk and all that...
No, youth sees itself as always right and indestructible.

Then come the tears.
Sad, foolish, misguided. Inevitably the fate of a percentage of those who go.
And so unnecessary.
I doubt it'd change many minds. These things always happen to someone else.
Those who have returned can be more persuasive if they speak out regularly.
Good, one less to come back here and start a terror reign in the UK.
One less, she knew exactly what she was doing, it's a pity the ones that think IS Scum don't follow her.
Think that IS Is great don't follow her.
She was young, scarcely more than a child. Her death is a tragedy for her family. I don't think this will deter others of a like mind. Mores the pity.
// after she became disillusioned with life in Syria//

makes me wonder what she thought life in Syria was going to be like?

Sandy, she was old enough to know the history of IS, she paid the price, as said, one less.
A bed of roses, obviously.
-- answer removed --
No sympathy from me. It probably won't deter others though.
I noticed on the news that the family's solicitor was speaking. I recall that there was talk of the family taking legal action against someone (not sure if the airline or police or some other body) . does anyone know what's happening there?
TWR, young people who are groomed by extremist propagandists are shown a vision of a utopia. They'd likely have been told anything that opposes the ISIS view is nothing more than western lies.
Am surprised she has no baby after 18mts?
I agree with you Sandy to a point, these girls knew the direction of IS, they were old enough to know the IS Scum does not have any thoughts who they killed, men . women, children , baby's, some may think I'm heartless, far from it, I cheer when I hear, people associated with this SCUM IS is killed, in my mind if they capture people that's linked to IS, get rid, they kill no more.
I think I read somewhere that she was a widow. Her husband was killed in the fighting.
Sadly others will not be deterred, because grooming of any nature will present an idealised picture which is a very long way from reality.

As usual, this sort of thread polarises opinion between those who rejoice in the death of a naiive schoolgirl, and those who take the approach that any death is a tragedy, and nothing to gloat about.
I don't gloat about someone's death, if fact I feel for them, London, Paris, Madrid, & many others that's lost lives through this evil regime Andy, I have no remorse for the likes of these girls, they must have thought evil to go out to join this scum regime, they will rejoice no more.

I have never been able to connect any sort of relief / pleasure / gloating / satisfaction - call it what you will, over one death because of any tenuous connection with any other death(s).

The wrongness of innocent victims killed by terrorism does not mitigate the death of a deluded schoolgirl, or others in her position.

As to them 'thinking evil' - human nature dictates that no-one ever thinks 'I will do this, it's evil ... ' - that is simply not the way minds work.

Deluded, yes, naïve, definitely, foolish, obviously - but none of these things are crimes against humanity that justify any moral high ground being occupied by a death like this.
She deserted her country of succour to fight with enemies, which is treason. I have no sympathy for the like.
