'I just want to go home', says German girl who joined IS

BERLIN (Reuters) - A German teenager who joined Islamic State is now being held in detention in Iraq and says she regrets joining the jihadist group and just wants to come home to her family, media reported on Sunday.

Der Spiegel magazine reported on Saturday that four German women who joined Islamic State in recent years, including a 16-year-old girl from the small town of Pulsnitz near Dresden, are being held in an Iraqi prison and receiving consular assistance.

Lorenz Haase, senior public prosecutor in Dresden, said he could confirm the teenager, named only as Linda W., had been "located and identified in Iraq" and was receiving consular support but could not say anything on her exact circumstances.

German broadcasters NDR and WDR and newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung said they had interviewed Linda W. in the infirmary of a military complex in Baghdad and she told them she wanted to leave.

"I just want to get away from here," she was quoted as saying. "I want to get away from the war, from the many weapons, from the noise."

She added: "I just want to go home to my family."

The media outlets said the teenager had told them she regretted joining IS, wanted to be extradited to Germany and would cooperate with authorities.

They said the girl had a gunshot wound on her left thigh and another injury on her right knee that she said was caused during a helicopter attack.

"I'm doing well," she said.

German prosecutors said last week they were checking reports that a 16-year-old under investigation for supporting Islamic State was among five women arrested in the Iraqi city of Mosul, where Iraqi forces declared victory over Islamic State earlier this month.

Now that her side is LOSING, it’s no longer fun and games, huh...?

I hope they roll her in egg and bread crumbs and deep fry her.

She apparently went over there with the clear intention of helping the terrorists kill innocents. There should be no “coming back home” option from that decision.

I’m sure every American feminist will leap to her defense. Not.

Emasculated German men wearing pink pussy hats as well are driving their women into the arms of men who are warriors and not ashamed of it. Men who want to fight and win, slay their enemies and not apologize for it.

For all the faults of Islam, at least they stand for something and all the feminist brainwashing in the world can't erase the genetic need for women to look for protectors and providers. German men are neither.

I guess if a German girl wants to date a bad boy, she has to go with an Islamic terrorist, since all the old Hitler youths have been transformed into PC metrosexuals.

Repatriate her and then publicly execute her in the Theaterplatz in Dresden.

She may want to come home in order to bring the war to Europe, since ISIS is doing so poorly now that Obama and McCain are on the sidelines.

odd conclusion. if german women wanted to be ravaged by muslim men, they can do that in any large german city — in fact, they’re getting ravaged whether they wanted ravaging or not.

but I do get your point.

She deserves the same support she showed for Yazidi girls.
