Britain’s Lost Girls
WSJ ^ | February 24, 2015

Posted on 02/25/2015 12:27:07 PM PST by QT3.14

Britons have anxiously followed for nearly a week the hunt for three missing teenage schoolgirls who aren’t “missing” at all. The trio appear to have evaded efforts to track them down as they journeyed to Syria to join Islamic State.

Authorities say the three girls lied to their families about their plans for the day on Feb. 17 to buy time to fly from London’s Gatwick Airport to Istanbul. From there they are believed to have traveled into Syria. One of the three allegedly was in contact via social media with Aqsa Mahmood, a 20-year-old Scottish woman who also became an Islamic State bride after she left Glasgow in 2013. The three apparently intend to do the same.

Let them stay. Revoke their passports. Put the parents under surveillance. Why should three mohammed worshipping girls not be inclined to do their part for jihad in syria alongside their brothers?

Apparently a members only site.

I wonder if it says they are pasty white brits or mid eastern transplants.

Either way they win Darwin awards for the category of “worst group decision”.

You make an intriguing comparison. Is ISIS becoming the "bad boys" for a young generation short on positive role models?

“Lost” girls? Sounds to me like the ones lost were all the dozens (hundreds?!) of girls being systematically molested by Muslims right in front of everyone’s noses, only no one did a damn thing. Nobody gave a crap about how “lost” they were. How much more of that is still going on and who’s worrying?

“Aqsa Mahmood, a 20-year-old Scottish woman”

No. Wrong.

This is way, way down my worry list.

By now they are likely the slaves - er, wives - of some old leches. The way to stop this is publicize what really happens to these girls with ISIS.

did they have passports to board an international flight?

where did their “handler” take control? in Britain or Turkey?

From what Muslim country did their parents or grandparents come?

Were they schooled in a British school, or a Muslim one.

- just s few questions that always come to mind!

They look Muslim to me. It’s likely they learned the glories of Jihad at home or in their community.

You can’t expect to define something as glorious and expect your kids to not explore it.

We’re also short of real young men due to the psychological neutering and drugging of any boys that show alpha traits.

Women will start to look where men can be real men

They are of the dusky muslim Pakistani demographic. Let them go and encourage others to do similar — but do not let them keep their UK citizenship or return to the UK.
