So you stop them from traveling overseas to wreak havoc and they will have no choice but to start here instead.

Seems logical to me...........

Perhaps you should let them out, and then not let the fkers back in again.

EVER.
^ This I agree.
Exactly, make them someone else's problem once they've learnt that living in Iraq with murdering bds isn't quite as much fun as it may have appeared initially yes
Beg to differ. The law is strict in this country. Lawlessness is welcome in IS land provided it is 'sanctioned' by their version of Islam. So yes you can rape as many women as you like, kill as many people in cold blood as you like, and make any violent video game become a reality, something you cannot do in any civilised country.
If you die in the process of doing your deeds, then the so called heaven awaits you with more virgins for you to deflower.
To illustrate how brain washed these fkers are, one of them was captured recently, he asked to be killed on the spot, so the Iraqi soldiers asked him why? He stated it was noon and he wanted to have lunch with the prophet in heaven! The soldiers then laughed and replied: "Nah, we'll kill you in the afternoon,when he'd have finished his lunch, just in time for you to do the washing up!"

How would you differentiate between somebody who has been abroad for legitimate reasons and somebody whose been abroad because they are evil bigots who enjoy beheading people?

So.... the 'final' push on Mosul is being widely publicised. Don't really fancy the job they have - building to building clearing with civilians everywhere.

Not sure how "liberated" some of the Mosul residents will actually feel. Some of the Shiite groups are almost as bad as ISIS.

"Shia paramilitary groups and Iraqi government forces have carried out revenge attacks on Sunni Arabs suspected of supporting Isis, Amnesty International has warned, as Iraqi and Kurdish forces backed by US-led coalition air strikes began their assault on Mosul.

The rights group has accused paramilitary groups and government forces of rounding up thousands of older boys and men who were then tortured, forcibly disappeared or extrajudicially executed."

"A leading government-backed militia in Iraq has described the assault on the Islamic State (IS) group stronghold of Mosul as "revenge for the killing of Imam Hussein", referring to the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad."

The so called BBC are reporting that Iraqi and Kurdish forces are making significant progress in the operation to take back Mosul; and while there are still up to 1.5 million civilians stuck within the city many IS fighters are fleeing to their strongholds in neighbouring Syria.

This is a depressing example of why there probably will never be peace in the Middle East, just to make this situation even more complicated the Kurdish forces will have to hang back on the final assault to liberate Mosul as many residents fear revenge from Kurds in an area where genocide was carried out against the Kurdish population by Saddam

Anyway lets hope Mosul is liberated, but from footage online ISIS are putting up one hell of a fight

Simple, get the fk out of there and let the sky fairy believing morons merrily kill each other for following the wrong fairy.

The home of Islam is in Saudi Arabia. They proclaim themselves to be the protectors of Islam. So why the fk are they sat on their thumbs while the "infidels" are expected to go in and clean up this sthole.

fk em!

A bizarre tale of an Irish former altar boy who went to Saudi Arabia to work, got caught making his own alcohol so was jailed, converted to Islam in prison, moves to Pakistan when he leaves jail and has now blown himself up near Mosul.

Irish Isis fighter kills himself in Iraq suicide bombing

I'm conflicted by extrajudicial execution vs defence of U.K. People.

But on balance not too much...

When air strikes go wrong.


Approximately 230 people are reported to have been killed in what is thought to have been a US-led coalition air strike on an Isis-held neighbourhood in Mosul.


article said:
A spokesperson for Central Command, which coordinates US military action in Iraq, told The Independent they were aware of the loss of civilian life as reported by Rudaw and the information had been passed on to the civilian casualty team for “further investigation”.

“[The US-led coalition] takes all reports of civilian casualties very seriously and assesses all incidents as thoroughly as possible. Coalition forces work diligently to be precise in our air strikes and ensure that all strikes comply with the [internationally agreed] Law of Armed Conflict,” Captain Timothy Irish said.

It's interesting to note how little press coverage this has received - sure it's a war zone but how do you accidentally kill over 200 civilians?

I guess because these incidents happen and it's sad but the fact is in wars nasty things happen.

It's not a computer game, sometime mistakes happen and sometimes bombs are dropped deliberately on targets that are found not to be where the bad guys are hiding (I'm not suggesting that in this instance)

Personally as bad as it is I'm amazed so few civilians have been killed by the coalition and that's credit to the people we hope are making our world a safer place to live.
