What price forgiveness for them then?I'm sorry but once they leave these shores to join terrorists, their passports should be incinerated !!! I for one do not welcome them back! Age is immaterial. They made their choice. Live or die with it, but not in the UK.

She was bright and intelligent. Old enough to make a considered decision. Not quite in the league of fancying Johnny Depp with his flashing eyes in his sexy pirate outfit though is it.
She was also influenced as you say, which is true,.
If she was that bright why was she swayed by the idea of some handsome hero, future husband, striding around the burning hot desert fighting for his cause like some romantic figure .... instead of a terrorist, a chap with a rifle, an executioner who slit throats and throws gays off rooftops.
Presumably the offal online which recruited her wasn't just your average 'Find a Jihadi Bride' social site, with profile saying .. Hi, I'm Abdul, dark and handsome, owner of a good sense of humour, hobbies include firearms, shooting and desert paint ball war games..
She'd have to be blind to miss the political and extremist element, the media is full of it and young people have access to it all these days.
I'm not sad ...I'm not glad.
But as usual with these threads when the topic is of a death of a high profile person I was tempted,.... but thought better of ... offering my condolences and sympathy to her distraught Isis husband.

Such people need to grasp the reality of the situation, for all our sakes.
