I'm going to go out on a limb here, and guess that Lina doesn't look much like these Swedish women:

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Swedish authorities on Thursday charged a 52-year-old woman associated with the Islamic State group with genocide, crimes against humanity and serious war crimes against Yazidi women and children in Syria — in the first such case of a person to be tried in the Scandinavian country.
Lina Laina Ishaq, who’s a Swedish citizen, allegedly committed the crimes from August 2014 to December 2016, in Raqqa, the former de facto capital of the self-proclaimed IS caliphate and home to about 300,000 people.
The crimes “took place under IS rule in Raqqa, and this is the first time that IS attacks against the Yazidi minority have been tried in Sweden,” senior prosecutor Reena Devgun said in a statement.
“Women, children and men were regarded as property and subjected to being traded as slaves, sexual slavery, forced labor, deprivation of liberty and extrajudicial executions,” Devgun said.
When announcing the charges, Devgun told a press conference that they were able to identify the woman through information from UNITAD, the U.N. team investigating atrocities in Iraq.
“IS tried to annihilate the Yazidi ethnic group on an industrial scale,” Devgun said.
In a separate statement, the Stockholm District Court said the prosecutor claims the woman detained a number of women and children belonging to the Yazidi ethnic group in her residence in Raqqa, and “allegedly exposed them to, among other things, severe suffering, torture or other inhumane treatment as well as for persecution by depriving them of fundamental rights for cultural, religious and gender reasons contrary to general international law.”
According to the charge sheet, obtained by The Associated Press, Ishaq is suspected of holding nine people, including children, in her Raqqa home for up to seven months and treating them as slaves. She also abused several of those she held captive.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, and guess that Lina doesn't look much like these Swedish women:
Why hasn’t America charged the illegal alien invaders overrunning America and stealing from our Treasury with war crimes? There is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that says anybody living in a Marxist/socialist sh*thole of their own making gets to move to America anytime they want and be made wards of the U.S. Government and given everthing they want free of charge.
Because the government wants them in the US.

Wait. They are charging her for things she did in Syria? Sweden has no jurisdiction.
Are you ready to be tried in England for your posts done in the US?

She's a Swedish citizen. Yes, she committed crimes in Syria for which Syria and ISIS would probably give her a medal, if they haven't already.
If I commit crimes against humanity, you are welcome to try me wherever you'd like.
