These “Finns” do not actually consider themselves to be Finnish. They consider themselves citizens of the worldwide Islamic umma. They joined an entity that is avowedly at war with Finland and the rest of the non-Muslim world. They should never be allowed back. Would Britain have allowed a group of British Nazis who had gone to Germany to fight against Britain to return to Britain in 1943?
“Turkey deports 12 Islamic State-linked fighters to Finland,” by Amberin Zaman, Al-Monitor, June 1, 2020:
Turkey has repatriated 12 Finnish Islamic State detainees, the Interior Ministry has revealed, part of an ongoing process of transferring jihadi captives back to their countries of origin.
“Extradition of foreign terrorist fighters continues. In this context, 12 Finnish nationals were flown back to their countries,” the ministry said in a May 31 tweet.
The ministry did not specify whether the Finns were men, women or children.
Turkey began repatriating foreign jihadis in November of last year, mostly to Europe. Those repatriated include fighters from Germany, France, Ireland and Denmark. Ankara also deported a US IS fighter that month.
Finnish IS fighters rarely if ever made headlines when the terror group butchered its way across Iraq and Syria. Yet Finland, with a population of 5.5 million, produced one of the highest jihadist rates per capita, according to Anne Speckhard, director of the International Center for Countering Violent Extremism at Georgetown University.
There are 11 Finnish women and 30 Finnish children currently at the Al-Hol and Roj camps in northeast Syria, which are home to around 70,000 IS fighter dependents, most of them Syrians and Iraqis. Around 10,000 of them are from 60 other countries, including Turkey….

One dreams that the Finnish would fly them back over Turkey and push them out of the cargo door with self-actuating parachutes on their backs.

Turkey’s actions in deporting 12 Finnish Nationals who are Jihadists shows that Finland & all countries have a National RESPONSIBILITY & RIGHT to deport Foreign Jihadists!
Greece, Italy, Britain, America, India, France and ALL countries have the RIGHT & RESPONSIBILITY to deport Foreign Terrorists / Jihadists
Let’s hope Finland deports ALL Turkish Jihadists to Turkey!
John howarth says
Fully agree, but British are to afraid of the Muslims they dare. not upset them!
Roger Woodhouse says
Exactly.Britain as usual fails to make a ‘political stand’ against an ever increasing threat to our nations safety
As it was back in the 1930s Britain refused to act against German rearmament which as we all know ended badly.Likewise today these weak politicians prefer to ‘turn a blind eye’ to what is happening right under their noses in the hope that somehow muslims ‘will become just like us’.The British people know what is happening but they are also being brainwashed by the media to ignore this issue.

Rufolino says
Britain wouldn’t have allowed it in 1943 because then, Britain had a sense of national pride and identity.
Today Britain has lost its national pride because everyone is being told it’s “politically incorrect” . Today this woman would probably would be allowed back.

Turkey deports 12 Islamic State jihadis to their home country: Finland
…………….
Just grimly laughable. These thugs are not Finnish, and if Finland had any sense they would not allow them back.
mortimer says
And the Finns will no doubt conclude that the jihadists merely wanted a steady job … that’s why they went to behead for ISIS … isn’t it? Isn’t that the normal reaction of ALL young people? (sarc/off)

“Would Britain have allowed a group of British Nazis who had gone to Germany to fight against Britain to return to Britain in 1943?”
No, not in 1943. But in 1943 ‘Britain’ was ‘British’, run by the ‘British’ for the ‘British’. As for present-day 2020………

I wonder why Western elites can’t see, or refuse to see, the danger that these savages present for their fellow citizens?

Now THAT is the $1,000,000 question.
You can’t solve a problem until you know what the problem is.
European pagan says
IS jihadis, male and female, should be executed as murderers and war criminals. But instead of that, they send them back :/
