Although Shamima Begum has shown no remorse, Richard Barrett says Britain should be strong enough to reabsorb her

British intelligence services have been in cahoots with extremists so this is not a surprise. MI5 were happy for ex-Gitmo detainee Moazzam Begg to go to Syria as long as he relayed info back. A lot of these people have the goods on them. Guardian also sold romanticised struggle.

Former thank fluck

‘Former’ - I.e no longer able to make the call. Good.

Are these people on some psicotropic drugs? The level of preparation these girls went through to join those abborent excuses of human beings clearly shows they knew what they were doing. You reap what you sow.

It was an anti-Assad trope (and an outrageous lie) that he was in some way in cahoots with ISIS. But our demonization of Assad will have worked with some to convince them to identify with his enemies. At least Richard Barrett doesn't (in this case at least) go as far as this:

She should stick with ISIS medicare , no repartirition for traitors.

Love island or strictly dancing

A director of MI6 is supposed to serve his/her country and keep its citizens safe. Right now you’re doing neither.

A chance to try walking into the Channel whilst wearing concrete boots. 😒

This lady has a point... it’s exactly what sprung to my mind. doublestandards

No one really knows what they did over there

Send her to live with you then

didn’t you just know the Guardian would take this stance

is he a labor supporter ?

No chance! For someone who sounds like they're talking about apples when saying that they've seen peoples heads in bins, she has no place here as far as I'm concerned. I don't give a toss about the excuses. Keep her away from the UK!!!

no, make no mistake they are at war against uk/west. ... consider those murdered on the streets of london, uk and europe.

I don't think that she should be allowed back in the country. She's shown no remorse for her actions. She's a security risk.

She made her bed and needs to lie in it. No help for this remorseless chick.

No. There is a reason you are a former MI6 director

Did the former MI6 director make the country weaker, more hostile & vulnerable during his tenure?

no they shouldn't they'll be a greater danger than when they were out in the open once a terrorist always a terrorist

Her dad....

A chance to do what? Blow up the USA

Nope.

OK. She's gonna be deployed elsewhere in a future conflict. Thanks for rewording it MI6 guy.
