The former medical student Ibrahim Ageed is now “languishing in a prison in Syria after joining ISIS,” and “claims he has the ‘right’ to face ‘face the music’ of justice in the UK.” To jihadis, it is indeed like “music” to return to the enemy territories of the West and live in relative comfort, and in some cases continue their jihad, even while in prison. Some jihadis are well aware of how Western Leftists provide them with a golden opportunity to return to Western countries. They have caught on to the woke Leftist understanding of their “rights,” and to the fact that Leftists have no concern for their innocent victims. Ageed was abroad fighting a jihad against Britain and other Western countries. He has no right to be tried under British law, a law he does not recognize.
Islamic State jihadis and their often equally dangerous brides sometimes apologize and claim that they have changed, but how they exactly have changed is left vague and unexplained. They generally do not renounce the specific beliefs that induced them to join the Islamic State to begin with. Nor are they cooperative in exposing other jihadis. Ageed, for instance, would not reveal where his wife is.
Leftists ignore the fact that Islamic State jihadis pose an extreme security threat to British citizens. The gruesome crimes that Islamic State jihadis committed against infidels, including beheadings and the worst violence and violations against women and girls, cannot be adequately adjudicated in court, because it is difficult or outright impossible to gather all the necessary evidence and witnesses to prosecute them in Western countries.
Meanwhile, much lesser criminals in the West are serving life sentences in maximum security penitentiaries. Those prisoners’ families should be lobbying for justice against the preference given to Islamic State jihadis. After all, most British prisons have been transformed into jihad training camps.
The logical recourse for the West is to keep Islamic State jihadis out of Western countries.
Meanwhile, Ageed serves as another warning regarding the medical profession. Recall that in 2019, Ohio doctor Lara Kollab was fired for tweeting she’d give Jewish people “all the wrong meds.” Kollab also stated that
supporters of Israel should have their “immune cells killed”…. called for violence against Jews, spread anti-Semitism, trivialized the Holocaust, defended the terror organization Hamas and expressed support for terrorists on Twitter.
Kollab ultimately lost her license to practice medicine.
Regarding Ibrahim Ageed, all Western countries need to keep jihadis out of their countries, both to curb the spread of the jihad ideology and to protect their citizens. This is or should be the duty of all political leaders.
“Imprisoned ISIS British medical student says he has ‘right’ to face ‘justice’ in the UK,” by Richard Ashmore, Express, February 8, 2023:
A British former medical student languishing in a prison in Syria after joining ISIS claims he has the “right” to face “face the music” of justice in the UK. Jihadist Ibrahim Ageed, now 29, was one of a group of students, including his brother Mohamed, who travelled to join the Islamic State in 2015.
Originally from Leicester, Ageed is now locked up in Al-Sina Prison in Al-Hasakah, in north east Syria, otherwise known as Rojava. In an interview with The News Movement reporter Lucy Marley, Ageed, who was 21 when he signed up for the death cult, has been pictured for the first time in Syria.
He said about a hoped return to the UK: “I believe I’ll be subjected to the justice system but I’m ready to face the music and I believe it’s my right basically to go back home.” Ageed revealed he still had a wife who he met when they were both 23 in the caliphate and they have two children, a third child died.
Ageed would not reveal where his wife was, but said he had no means of communication with her. The son of a doctor in the UK, Ageed said he had been “completely isolated” during his incarceration and that ISIS had been “weakened” since the war with coalition, Syrian and Kurdish forces.
He said: “I think they’ve been significantly weakened, whether they have the ability to resurge or not. I’m not sure I’ve been completely, I’ve been completely isolated for like nearly four years now.
“I haven’t seen the news outside. I don’t know what’s happening. Whether you can completely rid the world of these groups is a very difficult task, I’m not sure to be honest.”
Ageed and his brother were in their final year at the privately-owned University of Medical Sciences and Technology (UMST) and had previously studied at fee-paying Loughborough Grammar School.
According to the Sunday Times both were friends on Facebook with Suhaib Majeed, 22, one of two men from London jailed for life in April 2016 for plotting to kill soldiers and police in drive-by shootings………
