Teen Girls Who Fled Austria To Join ISIS Now Pregnant, Desperately Want To Come Home

[Galraedia]

The two young Austrian girls that abandoned their families to join ISIS say they made a mistake and want to come home.

Samra Kesinovic, 17, and her friend Sabina Selimovic, 15 were conned by Muslim clerics at a local mosque. They were led to believe their European lifestyle was evil. Clerics told them that the only way to know true peace was to travel to Syria and take part in the holy war.

In April, the teen girls packed their bags, abandoned their families and headed out. They left the following note,

“Don’t look for us. We will serve Allah, and we will die for him.”

Samra and Sabina are believed to be married to Chechen fighters, pregnant and living in the ISIS controlled city of Ragga in Northern Syria, Central European News reports.

1. Some mistakes you can't walk away from n/t

2. You should be able to if you're a minor./NT

4. We can agree to disagree on that

This wasn't a case of stealing a bottle of water or drinking and driving. These girls made a conscious choice to go off an join a terrorist group, a group, BTW, that doesn't make it a secret about what they think of and how they treat women.

As a sovereign nation, Austria is free to allow them back or not, and whatever decision they make should be respected. However, if they do choose to let them come back, they would be well advised to keep them under constant surveillance.

10. To ISIS, there is no such thing.

If they weren't dead before, they likely are now. Their only hope is being as far away from ISIS as possible.

3. Date a drummer and get a tattoo, those are mistakes teens should make

Running to a dangerous foreign country to join religious extremist terrorists is a little harder to remedy than removing a tattoo.

Best of luck , but there are some jams that you can't get out of.

5. What are Austria's laws concerning returning terrorists?

In today's world, it is a hard call on how a country would handle this. I wouldn't blame Austria for saying, "sorry, but no way."

6. This happens more often than you think

In some places there are no teenage years. In my experience, Mexican family gets over the border with their kids. Girl becomes a teenager and falls for a bad boy. Bad boy is deported. Girl takes a bus back to Mexico to be with him. Whoopsie! Girl quickly realizes she has no rights and family has no money to hire a coyote again. Boy does his best to knock her up. Girl is barefoot and pregnant with no options except accept her fate for one dumb decision. No one cares she's 16. It's normal in poor areas.

7. Held off posting the first story last month, undecided as to forum:

One of two Austrian girls who fled to Syria to fight with IS has been killed

September 15, 2014



Samra Kesinovic was just 16 and her friend Sabina Selimovic 15 when they vanished from their homes in Austrian capital Vienna and then posted images of themselves branding Kalashnikov rifles, and in some cases surrounded by armed men...



Konrad Kogler, Director General for Public Security, refused to confirm which girl was rumoured to have died or where the rumours came from, but said: "The parents of the girl concerned have been informed that there is a risk their daughter is now dead..." 

Interpol has been searching for the girls since April. Both Samra and Sabina's parents were from Bosnia but moved to make new lives for themselves in Austria... 

Police managed to track them to the Turkish border and believe that they went by car into the war zone where they were married to extremists and then sent out to fight. They then regularly posted status updates on social media from Syria.

May be a women's issue, certainly didn't want it in religion. They're not the only females flocking to ISIS. It's been in stories of Syrian rebels. Some find the 'fighters' appealing. Propaganda works well.

8. Oops!

9. As stupid as their decision was...

I hope they get to go home. They should face consequences for their actions, but I hope they face them in Austria.

Kids do stupid things, and these girls were preyed on by some real assholes.
