if british citizens go to fight in syria should they be allowed back in the uk?

If they go to fight in syria do you think they should be allowed back in the country?

No, but they will all be allowed back and probably go onto benefits and never have to work but still get a free house, the usual crap.

Hell-to-the-No. Forfeit their citezenship and that goes not jsut for Syria, but any islamic country they go to commit or train under such influences, so iraq, afganistan, pakistan, even some may go to gulf states for islamist training, indoctrination, should not be allowed back.

and thats coming from an immigrant to the uk himself.

No. Hopefully they get killed out there.

No. They should have their citizenship taken away and never be let back in to the UK unless it's to serve an awfully long sentence in some sort of maximum security prison

UK security services know of most of the people who've gone out there to fight. The threat isn't as bad as it seems

yeah, there is the potential for them to turn into terrorists against the uk one day...simply put: the uk should not get involved in the middle east and then this can all stop

No they should be made to stay there and then see what it's really like. Don't want idiots like that in the country anyway

Of course. They're just carrying on the fine british tradition of bringing terror upon foreign countries.

Just kidding.

If it is beyond reasonable doubt to assume that they have gone to fight (i.e. if they're not travelling with official documentation and details from an organisation like the Red Cross), no, there should not be a precedent set where people are effectively told it's okay to kill, torture, etc. as long as they are on foreign soil and will not go unpunished for it. They should never come back.

Let them come back and then execute them.

Shami Chakrabarti and those odious turds at Amnesty International will no doubt campaign on their behalf to allow them back.

The Muslim MP, Khalid Mahmood, who represents Perry Barr in Birmingham, told US-based news magazine Newsweek that he estimated at least 1,500 young British extremists have gone to the Middle East since 2011 to join the insurgency wars in Syria and Iraq.

False equivalence. I never said if it was okay if the British army does it either. Try again :wink:

Family in Syria dying and I have to read this crap on an internet forum of ignorant people who know nothing. Don't comment on Syria if your entire knowledge of it consists of one or two articles that you skim read.

FSA are dying fighting both Assad and ISIS, people have no idea and just think rebels = ISIS
