This is a really inflammatory discussion & since I started working with vulnerable kids, I am more conflicted about her;

Groomed & manipulated at 15 & tempted by a life that didn't exist, lost 3 babies, seen unimaginable horrors, spent her years since living in squalor & fear, maybe developing a hardened persona to cope with it...

Like most people, I saw her 1st interview & thought she was a monster & deserved to die in that camp. Now that I have more knowledge of grooming & vulnerability in young people, I find myself feeling some sympathy for her & her family.

Am I the only person who feels like this?

I have no sympathy what would you be saying if she had gone on to committing a crime of maybe blowing innocent people up in a shop or on the street, she may have been groomed but innocence is no excuse

Being groomed at any age without clearly understanding the impact of what they are being taught is always a difficult one as the law state should know or old enough to know but mentally how can any of this be true.. their is always two sides to everything and should be heard it's a cruel world we live in people get manipulated

No you are not the only one.

I'm not one of those people though. I'm extremely indifferent to her, I neither have hate nor compassionate empathy for her. I understand the grooming situation, but unless she had an extremely sheltered life at that time, she surely should have been old enough to realise the war situation.

At that age if an older beautiful woman had attempted to groom me in to going there, no amount of teenage infatuation and hormonal horn would ever have been enough to convince me that my life would be better there.

I'm on the fence with this one, I totally get were you're coming from op, and to an extent feel some compassion towards her.

My issue is, we only know the facts of what's she's been through from the mainstream media, that is were my problem lies. As we all know the media is utter poison and feeds us with lies and deceit every single day, so apart from the young lady in question, does anyone actually know the truth?

I've had similar philosophical arguments about serial killers. Abused as kids, beaten, bullied, grow up to murder dozens of people. My heart bleeds for that poor kid as it wasn't their fault. But as a grown up, they just deserve to get the electric chair. We can't fix what happened to her in the past.

keep in mind she didn't do anything quite as horrific as those killers, she in some part did have a part in horrific acts, even by just being knowingly married in to the terrorist organisation - as far as we have been told.

She travelled all that way to marry a terrorist didn't she? She shared the same ideology in hating the country that she'd lived in.

If so.

No sympathy from me, count ourselves lucky she didn't blow up a concert in this country killing kids or at least have anything to do with that kind of act.

For me it’s interesting to see how she has been used as face for terrorist brides. Others have been there and then been allowed to return.

Also cases of similar grooming here in the UK (for different extremist groups) where there were plans and steps taken to do harm to others, however not given any media attention…

I think her face fits (literally and figuratively) the stereotyped idea (pushed by the media) of a terrorist or terrorist sympathiser and therefore people cannot contain their emotions to discuss it.

I don't have sympathy and I don't believe that she was groomed or coerced.

The question is though, should somebody's actions at the age of 15 define them for life?

Maybe she deserves a second chance at living a productive life in the UK, however there are obviously serious questions that need to be asked and safety measures needed to be taken. Also the implications and precedents set need to be taken into account.

She won't ever really be able to have a productive life in the UK. Her face is extremely well known, even new identity won't help her out all that much.

She would struggle to find respectable employment, if any - most places (most) likely would not want to be associated with her. I highly doubt she would be safe from threats towards her - not exactly productive if she is given security on the tax payers money.

n most circumstances, people deserve a second chance and the opportunity for redemption. But the risks are high if she presents a danger to other's lives. My unease over Begum is that undoubtedly many ISIS 'volunteers' have been brought back quietly. But she had her citizenship revoked on a technicality, and hence denied repatriation. That might be seen as unjust.

She is too controversial to be given any kind of position. She will never be free of the stigma no matter how reformed.

She is a nobody, an unknown that has not actually done anything of note yet causes the hate in people to rise to the top as if she were on the level of serial Killers, or Jimmy Saville, hell I think even he gets less hate than she does.

I do understand where you're coming from OP. I find myself trying to understand her motives & actions and putting myself in her shoes.

As a young teenager, I had some crazy ideas about the state of the world. I wanted to go & live at Greenham Common to protest nuclear arms. My parents - rightly - pointed out I was being silly. What about school? How would I afford to live? Etc. Clearly, I realised it would be a daft undertaking so I changed my mind. As teenagers often do.

I'm trying to imagine how this would have turned out if there had been social media back then. Or if I'd been groomed. I didn't have a particularly happy childhood, so could have been open to it....?

But then throw in that ISIS are a terrorist organisation, atrocities well publicised, as are their views on women, and would I really have joined them at 15? Travelled to another country?? Maybe I don't fully get how a person can be groomed, but I just know I'd not have done that.

I guess I'm saying she made a tough choice and I'm afraid, on balance, that she must now live with the consequences.

Many years ago a young 12 year Mary Bell killed two toddlers she was tried served her time and went to have a daughter and I believe now has grandchildren.However her and her daughter have a lifetime ruling that there real names and identity can not be revealed.By all accounts she could be considered a rehabilitated murderer.Growing up she witnessed her mother working in the sex business involving the sex acts where women are whipping , beating men and there are some that feel that may have made her do what she did.I guess what I am trying to say if Mary Bell can be rehabilitated perhaps there is hope for Shamima Begum

I mentioned that case earlier in the thread. Its heartbreaking but it demonstrates that grooming can be political/societal as well as sexual. And no one would blame a teenage schoolgirl for being sexually groomed.

I really do wonder about parents in those situations. I could be being unfair here but surely as a parent you might notice things like that? Not sure though.

I think she's not very bright and get the impression that also affects her emotional intelligence. She just seems very vague as a person. Not much going on in there.

When people say they have no interest and don't care what happens to her (a fully understandable and valid opinion), does it not worry you thstbthe British government illegally stripped her of her british citizenship? She was born in Britain, held a British passport, hervparents luved here perfectly legally, she has never held dual nationality or a passport for another country yet based on her parents nationality and the fact she could be entitled to seek citizenship in their country of birth she has been stripped of her British citizenship and left stateless contrary to international law.

Because regardless of who she is and what she did, our government doing that is frankly absolutely fucking terrifying

Not that anyone cares, but I believe she's being used as a political chess piece. I daresay there's far more dangerous people within our communities right now?

Should she be held accountable? Of course. Did she have extremist views, and associate with awful people with dangerous ideologies? Yes. Is she a terrorist? Hmmm...silly girl more like, who would probably have been shoplifting or similar if she hadn't left.

Did she do stuff to keep herself alive.surely at 15 she new what she was doing.at 15 I was hanging around older football hooligans I new what I was doing at the time.people can change when they get older like I did.BUT if your a terrorist and pose a threat to our country only place is prison.she didn't give a flying fck about the people she saw killed.bring her back put her on trial then lock her up with that other British hating preacher hook hand (forgot is name )"

Very forgiving of yourself.

"So what people are saying with all the coverage on Isis and knowing who they are and what they are capable of at 15 why would she want to join them, would this be a different story if a 15 yr old lad who went their picked up guns and fought with Isis you'd allow them back in "

She didn't pick up guns.....

Lets make it fair and say he was wooed by an older woman.... had unde*age sex and watched his kids die.

She willingly got on a plane to go join a terrorist and knew she was doing that, personally at age 15 I don't think that's just being young and dumb.

She knew it was wrong at the time and she knows it was wrong now, I don't want her or anyone like her in the country.

"This is a really inflammatory discussion & since I started working with vulnerable kids, I am more conflicted about her;

Groomed & manipulated at 15 & tempted by a life that didn't exist, lost 3 babies, seen unimaginable horrors, spent her years since living in squalor & fear, maybe developing a hardened persona to cope with it...

Like most people, I saw her 1st interview & thought she was a monster & deserved to die in that camp. Now that I have more knowledge of grooming & vulnerability in young people, I find myself feeling some sympathy for her & her family.

Am I the only person who feels like this?"

My religion probably saved me ass. Luckily for me my religion was extremist or fundamentalist or terrorist.

I know plenty of people who did dumb shit at 15. She won't be the first or the last.

I'm not perfect by a long shot so I won't be baying for blood or casting the first stone.

Maverick out.

Whilst it's safe to say she was probably groomed. I do question her over all intelligence. Like it wasn't exactly a secret about how many people Isis were killing in horrific ways.

I think people are missing a key point. Of course she knew what ISIS was doing, she was groomed to believe it was a just and honourable cause that she should support and be willing to die for. That's how grooming works. And it's how radicalisation works

A lot of people don't seem to understand how very sheltered the life of a girl from a conservative Muslim family might well be (ditto other religious groups). I delivered some education workshops in a Jewish faith school years ago and the children (key stage 4) did not watch television or know any Disney/cartoon characters or similar. Their religious families simply did not let them view such things. It's very possible she at 15 did not know the full extent of the ISIS/war situation.

It's very difficult for we 24/7 media consumers to comprehend that yes, people can and do exist in the UK, in a reasonably total media blackout.

Exactly. Why does the country have a Contest and Prevent strategy? Because it recognises that terrorism and extremism, isn't like the James Bond Movies.

Impressionable and disaffected people are targeted and groomed, then exploited. It's a story as old as time...come join our exciting team, to fight the bad guys, it'll be awesome raging against the machine!

99.9% of people would distance themselves well away from those people as soon as they found out they supported a terrorist group.

No decent human is going to communicate in a friendly way with someone like that.

Her family were fearing her safety and trying to stop her leaving the country. From what I remember the UK Gov did a less than grand job at the ports in letting her get through as did all the other nations as she made crossings.

Similar job to the Manchester b ombers brother who simply left the country despite courts and police wanting him to give evidence - you'd think ports would turn them back in a minute.

Very well put.

It’s not totally excusing people to make an effort to understand their background and see their bad decisions in that light. As some have pointed out, many 15 year olds make bad decisions - with her upbringing, with radical people having access to her, it’s not surprising she made those choices.

It's a difficult subject. I think one can condem her beliefs while being empathetic to her journey there.

I'd also say that views on grooming can depend on what the result is.

A 15yo is groomed to have sex with adults. We would not say that at 15 yo she knew her mind and what right and wrong is. We rightfully see her as a victim and go after the adults.

Rhiannon Rudd is being portrayed as a victim. Is that because she didn't get as far as committing attrocities and we can see evidence of grooming. Or because of the way it ended ?

I also think there are elements that people thing should change with age. She should know better now. Her blaise views on beheadings. Is that because her grooming experience continued beyond 18? Is her coolness that much different to a solider? Say Harry?

Regardless of views on her, I am uncomfortable with the approach the UK took. Especially as this started here. For a country who wants to be hard on immigration is it right we also seek to push our own citizens into others ?

Hmmm.

There is precedent. She is not the only person to have had her citizenship removed in recent years. It wasn't an arbitrary decision and, even if it was, it's been backed up by the courts.

She has not been left "stateless", she has recourse to foreign citizenship through her father.

People saying she is a British citizen by being born here are wrong. That's not how the British Nationality Act 1981 works.

According to the Financial Times in Nov 19 over 900 British passport holders went to fight for ISIS of which 360 have returned to live amongst us. I despise ISIS, I think they are as bad as the Nazis and Pol Pot. However I cannot understand the hatred directed towards a young woman who was a child when she went to Syria, quite possibly groomed where as potentially far more dangerous terrorists are back leading supposedly normal lives. Those 360 present far more of a threat to our safety than this woman does and I'm surprised that the anger and vitriol isn't directed towards them.

She should come back because she's British and we should own our problems. If she's suspected of criminal behaviour she should be tried and punished but so should the 360 others. However I suspect many of those 360 have committed terrible crimes against humanity but will get away with it whilst we concentrate on a woman, who to our knowledge has not directly committed any crimes.

It's a tough one because I despise Isis and it's supporters but feel we need to direct our anger towards those who did actually commit atrocities.

From what I understand, she actually doesn't qualify for a Bangladeshi passport because she didn't claim one by the time she was 21. Her right to citizenship there was lapsed.
