European police chiefs have warned that the United Kingdom has by far the highest rate of “exceptionally dangerous” returning Islamist fighters in the whole of Europe. In fact, about half of British citizens who made the journey to Iraq and Syria to fight for ISIS have now returned to the United Kingdom.
Europol – the law enforcement agency of the European Union – has warned that the returned Islamists fighters who’ve trained in and who’ve likely seen battle in the Middle East are “exceptionally dangerous”.
“Their training and experience — such as handling weapons and explosives — makes them exceptionally dangerous,” authors of the report wrote.
As per Europol’s yearly report, 45 percent of the British jihadists who traveled to Iraq and Syria during the rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) have now made their way safely back to the United Kingdom.
This means that the U.K. has the largest proportion of returned Islamist foreign fighters in the entire EU. In second place was Germany with 33 percent of its citizens who traveled to Iraq, Syria, and the surrounding area have returned. The Netherlands and Spain were tied for third place with the next highest proportion of returning ISIS fighters – both with 18 percent.
The Director of Public Prosecutions Max Hill QC – the government’s supervisory organ on terrorism laws – said that British government is not looking to prosecute large numbers of returning jihadist fighters, but that they should be ‘reintegrated’ into British society.
It's because they don't know. While everyone was preoccupied that pic related was in the news 24/7 and being denied access showing how tough the UK was on returning jihadis, (((they))) were shipping all the other Akbars back in through the back door. Really makes you think.
lied too. manipulated. abused. we voted to leave the EU three years ago and we still have not left and parliament still trying to stop it. if ever a country needed a revolution.

It just means you're the nation that breeds the most European terrorists. Before this thread I thought it was Sweden so congratulations on getting back to the 1st place in the cuckalympics.

>we voted to leave the EU No you fucking didn't, you're just the most naive and idiotic people who refuse to read the second their built-in british arrogance is called upon.
Name two (because one is obviously leaving the institutions, which is a consequence not an act itself, but still) specific acts you voted Britain to undertake with your vote.

It's mass immigration and cultural marxism. Islam itself irrelevant, it's down to numbers. there is so much going on at the moment and we have weak and traitorous leaders. it's happening in all white countries and is easier to see in another country. look at the dems in America. I can't believe they are even allowed to exist but we are all allowing the same craziness.
Best response you got? 1) Have you read the thing and it's explanatory notes? It still states nothing of what leaving functionally means.
2) You didn't vote for any of this shit, you voted for vague ideas of what EU policies are "bad" as told to you by Farage and Boris Johnson (many of which are bad, even more of which are not EU but national UK policies).
I virtually guarantee you didn't read the TFEU provisions on what "leaving" actually means before voting and I have a hunch most of you still haven't read it.

From ww1, islamists were fighting for the interests of western countries. For thier services i think they deserve to live in the west. Even Romans gave citizenship to barbarians who fought for them
They can have a gold watch instead. That's nice too, yeah?
Camden Morales
give it up idiot

They want to live in rich comfortable western countries, where there are a lot of tasty foods and sexy women. You probably noticed all the refugess are men from 20 to 40. These are just soldiers on thier vecation. A free ticket to europe is thier payment for fighting for the interests of western corporations. Its only fair
