They gave everything in their fight against ISIS, losing thousands and doing the wider world a favour. They shouldn’t have to now worry about the expense and hassle of European citizens. Secondly, Begum is British and a British problem. The idea you can strip citizenship off someone on the basis that their parent or parents come from elsewhere is the very definition of “second class citizen”. Begum is repugnant, but she should be brought back and processed to the full extent of the law, not dumped on the Kurds who are trying to rebuild their country.

FTA69 wrote: » The precedent of stripping people’s citizenship because their parent or parents are from a different country is making that point exactly - the idea you will be punished in a way that’s different to other citizens on the basis of your heritage. Shamima Begum wasn’t travelling on a false passport or any of that craic. She’s British and therefore she is a British problem. Why should the Kurds have to be landed with these people?
biko wrote: » She was 15 when she left. She then stayed with ISIS for years until she was captured. She is 20/21 now. Begum was an "enforcer" in ISIL's "morality police", and tried to recruit other young women to join the jihadist group. I think she's better off outside British soil, and the UK Supreme Court agrees with me.

That will have the effect of more dead Kurds and Syrians etc. Jack Letts had the same thing happen to him and his parents were jailed as well for helping him financially. Not a peep about it from the bourgeoisie Left. Now that Begum, who can only be compared in views, actions amd outlook to the Bitc5 of Belsen and there is a steady stream of complaint. Her crimes were in Kurdish and Syrian territory. Let her be tried and shot there and let the Kurds know that aid depends on that happening. Isis hope she comes back to Britain.

The west did not support Isis if it wasn't for the west Israel would be one of the few ME countries left standing,the Kurds heavily backed by Western special forces and 24/7 airstrikes done the damage to isis , Russia is still looking for Isis ....... Which they claimed they defeated in a week

I'm not going to entertain the racism, European exceptionalism stuff, that's just indulging your lordship and I am done with people like you. The Ross O'Carroll Kelly meets Arch Bishop McQuaid tendancy that has come to dominate the Left. Your frankly insane rant about me wanting a woman who participated in a campaign which saw about 100k Kurds dead. The Brits are under no legal obligation to take her back and that is to their benefit, it is also to the benefit of the Kurds as it limits the recruitment opportunity for ISIS. You can always send her money.
