British Citizens Who Choose To Join Isis.

In light of the horrific burning of the Jordan Pilot, what should happen to those British citizens who choose to join ISIS, when they return to these Islands?

// Not sure our definitions of 'dispassionate' line up on this one! //

prejudiced lines up better....that is judging them before they have even been charged

and anyway the returners - it depends what they have done, doesn't it

Today is obviously not a day for rational thought

Would any returning scumbag admit to anything ? They will return to claim benefits , as usual, then say what a wonderful country they have just left.

No one deserves to be executed like this, no one, but what seems to have not been overlooked is that he was flying an F16. It is a killing machine, he was not a journalist or an aid worker, he was a warrior and brave to the end. This is what happens in war, war never changes. Bad things happen to our bravest.

What they have done is chosen, quite freely, to join an organisation that would take great delight in seeing this country and its people utterly destroyed. Perhaps with no expectation of being treated as anything other than traitors, they would not only think twice before going but also before returning. The security of this nation must be paramount – and if that makes me prejudiced, so be it. Spare me the bleeding hearts! What’s to judge?

Well, I can perfectly understand why they would want to return to this country.

Ostensibly to radicalise other Muslims, create hatred for the ' unbelievers' and the 'enemies of the Prophet' and to further the quest for an totally Islamic world.

But I beleive the true reason is to enjoy the comforts, pleasures and benefits of a civilised country after sampling those of the 7th century.

They should never be allowed back.
