DISILLUSIONED recruits who joined the Islamic State terrorist group have sought assistance from the Australian Government to leave the conflict zone in Syria and Iraq.
A handful of young men who took up arms with IS to fight for an Islamic caliphate across the region have, either directly or through their families at home, contacted Australian authorities for help.
It is believed up to a dozen Australians, most of whom flew to Syria to join militants fighting the al-Assad regime, found themselves in limbo after laying down their weapons but fearing they would be arrested under tougher counterterrorism laws if they returned to Australia.
The men, including two from Queensland and several from other states, claim they were duped into fighting with terror groups after IS took control of a range of militant outfits. Many foreign recruits have been dragooned into the IS rampage against Shiite Muslims after arriving to fight Syrian forces.

Hey what’s going on in Sidney? I’m seeing twitter that hostages are being held at a Martin Place cafe and being forced to hold ISIS flags over the windows.

Screw these “Aussie” Muslims and screw the parents who raised them as Muslims. They chose their paths, let them continue down the path to their destinies — no doubt as dead meat rotting somewhere in Syria or Iraq.
The answer should be ‘no’. Any country accepting Islamic jihadis back from the fight, disgruntled or not, is asking for trouble eventually.
Maybe the Australian hostages can use their legally carried concealed firearms to save themselves. Oops. This is happening in Australia, isn’t it?
They betrayed you once, they will betray you again, they don’t want to return for the right reasons.
Finally realizing the difference between fantasy and reality.
Didn’t I just read a headline that IS supporters were holding Aussie hostages in a Sydney chocolate shop?
Just getting onto that now. I knew about the siege but until now I assumed it was a robbery gone wrong. Now it looks very different.
It looks like it, yes
Drop them off over Mecca.
If Australia brings them home without sending them straightaway to prison they will have imported the Jihad and paid for it.
T.S. You made your bed, now burn in it. Enjoy your 72 virgin....goats.

They were Muslim before they went and no country needs to bring back or bring in any more Muslims.
They must think it is easier to take over a cafe in Sidney
Then deport their entire extended families.
