Note that this was from last year. It's not breaking news.

Theres a debate in the UK at the moment on whether to let an IS fighter back into the country [1], they were a child at the time of leaving, but are adult now.

It is 'interesting' to compare the situations and reactions.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Sorry, no compassion for daesh members, even less so for ones seeing nothing wrong with daesh actions.

I actually also fail to see the parallels between antinazi dutch guerilla saving lives of jewish children and teenage daesh fanatic justifying the beheadings of hostages.

An interesting link though, thanks.

One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.

You may not agree with IS, (I don't). But some people do, and are willing to fight for it. They have their reasons whether good or bad, and denying that doesn't solve the problem. (is there any 'terrorist' / 'freedom fighter' movement that has been beaten by fighting alone???)

Anyway the parallels I was struck by were the fact that they were both underage girls, not fighting for a 'regular' army.

I prefer my news to report the 'facts', and let me make my own mind up, so the language used to describe each is as I said, interesting.

The first movie about her was "The Girl With the Red Hair" 1981 (dutch only), and the more popular one "Black Book" 2006 by Paul Verhoeven, was based on true stories of this group. In 2008, the Dutch public voted it the best Dutch film ever.
