Like we need them, should have let them go and sent their extended family with them.
We have plenty of other well-to-do terrorists and terrorist sympathisers in the UK anyway, so it's not like we'd be losing anything.

Err, the rebels are a separate body to ISIS. There is no way the British intended the people it armed would create an Islamofascist state, commit genocide, behead Western civilians or conspire to commit terrorist atrocities on Western soil.

It's logically unsound to say that British Muslims, by joining ISIS, are going to do what the British government intended. That's patently not the case and you know it.

Now there is a separate debate to be had on the stupidity of the British government's actions, but I do not agree with your analogy.

We should have let them go and upon doing so taking their British citizenship away and anything property etc be handed over to the local council where they lived and if attempt to come back to this country they will be taken the white cliffs and booted (like in the film 300) off them either that or be hung for treason.

They should have been let go as it less of them in this country making it that bit safer and also frees up a house for someone to live in that needs it. We should absolutely kick them out this country and not let them back in no matter what

We should encouraged all the Muslims who want to go onto one massive boat, then we let it sail and sink it. If they go for terrorism frankly all their rights should be revoked.

What kind of awful parents would take children that young over there?!

Let the adults meet their fate in the Middle East, put the children into care, hopefully away from people as sick and twisted as their family.
