Disillusioned jihadist: 'My iPod doesn't work...I have to come back'

a reply to: Expat888

You forgot the biggest lesson that one learns upon joining any military service. S# ALWAYS rolls downhill. Your life WILL be the most miserable there, because you are the new guy.

Anyone notice they are not saying they're sorry for what they've done or that they were wrong, just a general "I wanna come home 'cause it's too hard". They haven't shown signs of changing their minds, they just want to kill in a more comfortable setting. There's no way in Hell I would let these people back in to the country, except to be tried for war crimes and sent to prison as soon as their feet hit the ground.

How is this a french bashing thread?

Welcome to ATS.

I have only been here on ATS since October 2012 but lurking for about 8 years... As soon as people start speaking about other countries apart from the USA here (especially in a negative manner to certain posters) then it becomes a bashing thread... Just watch and you will see...

Thats all I am saying...

Kindest respects

The thing is that your well intentioned post will do nothing to deter those who feel the need to vent their hatred. I find it's best to ignore those types of posters instead of acknowledging them. Before hand or after the matter.

As for the OP I feel bad for anyone who thought that they'd be treated as anything more than a slave in their 'jihad' if they weren't already from the ME, And I pity that they thought they were doing something worthwhile at all.

Same as what most who stupidly sign up to join any army .. they think it will be a big glorius adventure and theyll change the world .. then they get there and learn there is no glory in war .. no winners and none of the luxuries of home ..

Some people join the service because they have no other way out of their crappy lives and the military provides them with structure, 3 square meals a day, stability, and a job.

It's not so much people want to change the world, but some people join just to better their own world.

It all depends on where the person joins up and who they join up with.

Ok... HERE WE GO...

I can just see how this thread is going to turn out... A French bashing thread from certain members once again...

I am a BRIT living in France and My wife and son are French... I have been here for 25 years and love France and the whole culture...

Anyhow...

LETS GET ONE THING STRAIGHT RIGHT FROM THE VERY BEGINNING...

A French nationalised Jihadist does NOT mean all of the French nation in general are Jihadists... some unintelligent numbnuts here on ATS will say French... French... French this and that...

The Militants that have left France AND MANY OTHER COUNTRIES TOO are either BRAINWASHED EXTREMIST MUSLIMS right from the start... OR people that have been converted by the wrong people.

Islam is a peaceful religion... but unfortunately (such as the Westborough Baptist Church for example) you have some real dickheads that want to twist and brainwash people...

Please... FUTURE POSTERS...?

Don't have a go at France and the French in general... I HAVE SEEN IT SOOOO MANY TIMES HERE ON ATS

And NO... I am not a Muslim.

Kindest respects

Ok, ok! We surrender! LOL

Allow them to come home, charge them with treason and execute them. You want to commit treason, and acts of terrorism. Good, you will be treated as such.

a reply to: Domo1

These people shouldn't be allowed home. Doesn't matter if you're an immigrant or someone born there. You leave to fight for terrorists, your citizenship is revoked. If that fails, someone mentioned bringing back the guillotine...

a reply to: Auricom

I thinking drawing and quartering would be better, how ever that would be as bad as their preferred removal of head with knife by hand.

Guillotine is quick at the very least, but i think hanging would be my preferred method. Cheap, effective, gets the point across.

...gets the point across.

And that's what we need to do. They need to understand that if they're going to support a terrorist organization, there will be consequences. I'm currently in Norway, there's virtually no consequences for running off to Syria to fight. A twenty-three year old was arrested earlier today or yesterday for returning from Syria, but the majority of these people come and live their lives as normal spreading their terrorist views.

They should all be locked up. If they're citizens, jailed. If they're not, sent back to wherever they came from.

I live in Canada, we are pacifists to the extreme... you murder an entire family, rape children and you just have to spend some time with a roof over your head, daily activities, clothing, food, meals, dental, medical they don't have to pay for.... it's pretty messed up. I'm all for rehabilitation, but some criminals are not able to be fixed(terrorists, murderers, rapists, child molesters...) Treason is the only thing punishable by hanging in canada... yet it never happens. Yet to have a case of treason yet, but these terrorists are committing treason by leaving to fight in syria as canadian citizens.

I'm not changing what i said previously but nearly bit my damn tongue off.... this used to be the only candian law punishable by death, how ever it has been changed... I was trying to find the definition of high treason and learned it too was punishable by a financial and civil responsibilities vacation.... .

High treason is criminal disloyalty to one's government. Participating in a war against one's native country, attempting to overthrow its government, spying on its military, its diplomats, or its secret services for a hostile and foreign power, or attempting to kill its head of state are perhaps the best known examples of high treason. High treason requires that the alleged traitor have obligations of loyalty in the state he or she betrayed, but this will usually be satisfied by being present in the state at the time of the offence, or being a citizen of the state if abroad. Foreign spies, assassins, and saboteurs, though not suffering the dishonor associated with conviction for high treason, may still be tried and punished judicially for acts of espionage, assassination, or sabotage, though in contemporary times, foreign spies are usually repatriated in exchange for spies of the mentioned nation held by another nation.[2] High treason is considered a very serious – often the most serious possible – crime, by the civil authorities. A conviction, by a Canadian court, for high treason, results in a mandatory life sentence (albeit with the possibility of parole after 25 years).

They made their beds--time to lie in them. They chose their side--time to take responsibility for that choice.

A sense of adventure my butt. I'm a big fan of adventure--like I'd totally go into Narnia if the door ever opened lol
But Narnia and joining a bunch of jihadist goatherds are two totally different things. Honestly, if anyone was truly dumb enough to view this as an adventure, then let them back and prosecute them/get them the mental help that they oh-so desperately need. But yeah, if you joined to help the bad guys then sayonara you can stay with your isis 'bros' and continue being their betch. Shoulda thought about the outcome before going to war. Bunch of morons--and not just the french. I'm part french. But I must say i think France's culture may have driven some of these people to doing this. I mean, France hasn't exactly been strong since the Napoleonic Era. They're hungry for glory, perhaps. It's sad that (if this is the case) that led them astray. I feel sorry for all of them. They're just so wrong.
