Refreshing news out of France: the country’s “most powerful administrative court” — The Council of State (Conseil d’Etat) — “rebuffed demands by Syria-based French Islamic State (ISIS) brides to be repatriated back to France, arguing the matter was outside its jurisdiction as it involved negotiations with foreign authorities.” The council further rejected such demands “for their children, currently in Syria.”
While the article below states that “the French government policy has been to refuse to take back fighters and their wives, who have been branded ‘enemies’ of the nation” and that “Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian has repeatedly stressed they should face justice in Iraq or Syria,” this isn’t quite so. Last month, France repatriated five children of jihadist fighters from northern Syria. With the new decision by the French Council of State, it isn’t known how these children will be processed and who will raise them. Yet the decision is an example that every Western country should follow. Canada — which shares a longer border with the U.S. than Mexico, almost double, in fact — should take note. According to Canada’s Prime Minster Justin Trudeau, every and anyone is welcomed into Canada. According to Trudeau, Islamic State fighters can be a “powerful voice” against deradicalization and “a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian,” even if that person is engaged in a jihadist war against the country and its citizens.
The French court decision was met with disappointment. “Nabil Boudi, a lawyer for one of the ISIS families, said the women and their children faced a ‘denial of justice,’ adding their situation ‘would only worsen.'” Worsen for whom? Westerners should not be exposed to hardcore jihadists, which Islamic State brides are; they have also trained their children to be the same. Islamic State brides, their families and advocates have used every trick in the book to try to gain entry back into Western countries — from lies about being manipulated and having a magical change of heart to being bullied as a reason for joining the Islamic State in the first place.
“France court REJECTS demands of ISIS brides and children to be allowed to return,” by Romina McGuinness, Express, April 24, 2019:
FRANCE’s most powerful administrative court on Tuesday rebuffed demands by Syria-based French Islamic State (ISIS) brides to be repatriated back to France, arguing the matter was outside its jurisdiction as it involved negotiations with foreign authorities.
Emmanuel Macron’s government has taken an unbending stance on ISIS returnees, categorically refusing to bring home fighters and their wives and repatriating only a handful of children. “The Council of State (Conseil d’Etat) rejects the demands for repatriation made by French nationals and for their children, currently in Syria,” the court said in a brief statement. The top court added a French judge was not in a position to make legally binding decisions on the issue as doing so would involve “negotiations with foreign authorities or intervention on a foreign territory”.
Nabil Boudi, a lawyer for one of the ISIS families, said the women and their children faced a “denial of justice,” adding their situation “would only worsen”.
Marie Dosé, a lawyer for one of the jihadi brides and her two children, for her part threatened to bring the case to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).
“We are facing one of the most disastrous humanitarian scandals of the French Republic: we are making these children pay for their parents’ decisions,” Mrs Dosé said.
Western states have been grappling with how to best handle suspected ISIS fighters and their families trying to return home from combat zones in Iraq and Syria, as well as those being held in detention.
In February, France snubbed US President Donald Trump’s call for European allies to repatriate their fighters and put them on trial, adding it would take back French militants on a “case-by-case” basis.
The French government policy has been to refuse to take back fighters and their wives, who have been branded “enemies” of the nation. Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian has repeatedly stressed they should face justice in Iraq or Syria.
Other EU countries face similar dilemmas. In the UK, the fate of jihadi bride Shamima Begum has shone a harsh spotlight on the ethical, legal and security issues governments face when dealing with the families of ISIS militants……

Never fear! Jihadi Justin Trudeau will find some way of inviting them all into Canada. Like Trudeau said, they’re a “powerful voice” alright, but I don’t think it’s for deradicalization.
mortimer says
How many returning jihadists did Jihadi Justin deprogram? None. Canada has approximately 2,000 jihad-ready Muslims in Canada who are merely waiting to be recruited for violence. Canadians will be attacked this summer. Churches should prepare security plans for all large churches and cathedrals.
Instead of getting rid of WAR CRIMINALS, Jihad Justin is telling Canadians they are horrible bigots if they don’t want those criminal TERRORISTS in Canada. Why do the Lib-Jihad Party of Canada think they will get re-elected by insulting the intelligence and integrity of Canadians? They must be high on marijuana and their own seemingly endless arrogance and entitlement.

He also told us that we had to get used to terrorism…..as if it was a normal thing now…..sheeesh we have the best of the best loonie as pm.

As a Canadian, I have to state the fact, that trudoe is an idiot, a mental defect, an embarrassment to all of Canada.
He should be sent to the most Islamic radical part of Afghanistan to live and I know a lot of people that would love to pay to send him there, wearing just a pair of shorts and a tank top. He simply can’t understand anything about Islam except his own twisted conception of it.
He needs to talk to Avi Lipkin, or at the very least, watch some of his videos about Islam and how Canada is already at a terrible risk. But he doesn’t care about Canadians, just wants to take their tax dollars to support the lazy Muslims and pay off murders of Americans, so they can support ISIS with our hard earned money. So sick. We have got to get rid of him!

I am *no* fan of the appalling Islamophilic Justin Trudeau, but *no one* has “deprogrammed” Muslims–including, apparently, Mortimer himself, since he has ignored my repeated requests that he provide testimonials from the ex-Muslims that he himself has deprogrammed.
Even though he has said that one needs governmental monies to take this “deprogramming” large-scale, if it worked he would *certainly* have at least a few examples of his own–but, sadly, he does not.
“Deprogramming” Muslims does not work.
somehistory says
It doesn’t work, and never will. Much like a dope addict or an alcoholic has to want to stop indulging their addiction…no outside help works until they make the decision to stop…a moslim has to want to leave islam and must decide to do so or nothing will get him/her out.

Agreed, Somehistory.

Justin Trudeau is not an idiot He is clever a s Fox as Obama and Macron are.He is ready to stand up to Saudis because Canada has oil and Saudis are competitor . But on the domestic front he has to appeal to his muslim base . Basically he is a slimy conniving politician with no principles but to win a popularity contest when it come to it . God save the west from these dirty politicians and media.

‘We are facing one of the most disastrous humanitarian scandals of the French Republic: we are making these children pay for their parents’ decisions,” Mrs Dosé said.
But that happens every time a parent goes to prison: the “children pay for their parents’ decisions.” These are not, of course, if old enough (6 and above?)harmless children. They have been brainwashed by their parents, and pose a threat to all Infidels. Leave them in Syria, among others just like themselves. The Syrian government can establish a cordon sanitaire around their camps, and they can survive by subsistence farming, weaving and other handicrafts, and can remain there to stew in their own fanatical ideology, forever.

Spot on, Hugh.
Westman says
How is this making them pay? They are in their native language and culture which is NOT French. The parents can do their job of providing for, and raising them in the child’s native culture. Ah, but that’s work. It’s better to suck on the French pap while hating France.

Those who participated in war crimes and crimes against humanity and human slavery … those who showed NO mercy to their victims … NOW THEY demand mercy.

France has about 15,000 jihadists already in the country RIGHT NOW. They have enough jihadists and don’t want any more.
France’s 15,000 jihadists are pulling off mini-jihads every week. Soon they will want a BIG EVENT. Something big is bound to occur sooner or later with such a large number of terrorists. The French cops have their hands full.
I keep hoping some government will realize that Muslims must be deprogrammed to eliminate the jihad threat. IT’S THE IDEOLOGY, STUPID.
lisa says
why dont all the jihadists stuck in syria move to canada?
Michael Garant says
I know some of us stupidly voted in peewee the feminist islamist , but please don’t hate all of us for our dimwit in chief. I’m sure we’ll correct that mistake in october….at least I hope those that helped him get in power will have woken up by then. ;0)

Or any country that signed the UN Immigration Pact where refugees can choose the country they want to go to.

Patriotic Canadians don’t want these Jihadists there.

“Denial of Justice” – those fighters and their brides chose freely to DENY Justice to their massacred victims.
The ISIS fighters and their brides should be sent back to Muslim countries!

Don’t let the evil isis brides or husbands or their “cubs of the caliphate” anywhere near our civilization. Allowing the “moderates” in is more than enough, much less the “radicals” and known terrorists .
Jay says
Trudeau of Canada and Macron of France are both one world open border communists!
They should both be removed from office and tried for treason! They have allowed and encouraged the unfettered immigration of both countries by Muslims that never acclimate and only demand! The destruction of thousands of French Catholic Churches and terror attacks, the attacks on French citizens especially Jewish Citizens, the no go zones, the truck attack in Nice, the Eiffel Tower, the French nightclub, etc etc ., the last few years should have been the wake up call but Macron is oblivious to this daily destruction. Now Notre Dame – this was no accident!
And Macron thinks a Muslim symbol over ND should replace the tower – wake up French citizens before it’s
too late. Macron, May Merkel, Trudeau, are just a few of the so called leaders destroying Europe and
Canada as well. Europe will not exist in ten years at this rate. Nor will England! Pm Churchill is not resting
easy today! The USA will not save Europe again! Canada is put on notice – Trudeau is a traitor!
God bless and save the world from this madness!!
Trump,2020. The only hope of the USA!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

All throughout human history, kids have suffered the “sins of the fathers” and the mothers. Seeing a child suffer is difficult, esp when something can be done to stop the suffering.
However, these people using their kids to pull on the heartstrings of those they would kill if they could, lusted for killing and that’s why they joined the terror group, are just using the kids as those moslims in hamas do when they fire on Israel with their kids as shields.
If the child is an infant, someone could offer to take that one in and raise them to be normal and loving instead of moslim and hating.
But the “brides” and the “husbands” should be left where they chose to go. No one made them go…in fact, governments were trying to stop people from going…and now they want to guilt-trip those same governments into allowing them back in.
I can pity the kids, but not want their parents living next to me or shopping where I shop, having fun where I do, driving where I drive or riding the same buses.

looks like it took the muslims setting Notre Dame on fire to wake the French courts up…

Of all the politicians in the world three or four stand out as people of Character and integrity .And they are Mr. Victor Orban , Mr. Modi , Suchi and Donald Trump. .These stand out as representing bulwark of resistance against Islamic expansionism when the rest of the world is adopting a compromising attitude towards Islam.
