A most welcome precedent that should be replicated accordingly in every Western country by victims of jihadists and islamic supremacists….
Members of the Yazidi minority in Germany are taking the federal government to court. They say Berlin isn’t doing enough to bring German “Islamic State” supporters captured in Syria to justice.
“Germany is failing to prosecute IS foreign fighters, Yazidis accuse”, DW News, May 30, 2019:
The Yazidi Women’s Council has filed a lawsuit against Germany’s justice and interior ministers, alleging obstruction of justice, according to German media reports.
The interest group accuses the government of failing to prosecute German supporters of the “Islamic State” (IS) militia who are being held by Kurdish-led forces in northern Syria.
Hundreds of IS foreign fighters and their families are in Kurdish custody. The question of how they should be dealt with is a difficult problem that many European countries, including Germany, are grappling with.
Dozens of Germans in Kurdish detention
According to information cited by public broadcasters NDR and WDR, there are at least 74 German IS supporters currently in Kurdish custody in Syria. The Federal Prosecutor’s Office has arrest warrants for 21 of those individuals on charges ranging from support of a terrorist organization to committing war crimes….

The German city of Nuremburg just came to mind while reading this article. The scum that left western nations, who knowingly broke terrorist laws forbidding them to travel to Syria, in order to rape, steal and murder innocent men, women and children should be tried in a Nuremburg war court similarly to the one erected after WWII. A gallows should be placed just outside the would be court room and after a military courts martial finds each guilty, they be walked up the thirteen steps and hung. I would volunteer to put the rope around each neck and pull the lever for absolutely nothing or an international lottery could be held for the opportunity to pull the lever. Just like the courts ruled after WWII, “I just followed orders,” will not suffice even if the orders came from Allah through the unholy Qur’an.

Bravo!

Yazidis, Alawites, Serbian, Iraqi, Libyan and Syrian Christians should all do the same and sue the U$ and Nato for providing islamic jihadists with weapons, funds training and direct military support over the years! Iraqi Christians numbered around 1.6 million before the war but now less than 150.000 remain in Iraq!
Rufolino says
Maybe the pope and the Catholic church should be sued for deliberately encouraging the immigration of Moslems, including jihadists, into continental Europe.
His foolishness in continuing to do this is causing immense suffering in Europe, and is in its effects, criminal.
christianblood says
Rufolino
The Pope is wrong but at least he did not give arms, training, funding and direct military and political support to islamic jihadists like US and Nato did and are still doing today.
mortimer says
It would be a great symbol to the world if they were tried at Nuremburg, but they should be sent to Syria and Iraq to be tried where they committed their heinous crimes. The world must see that jihad is worthy of the severest punishment.
The words of prosecutor Robert H. Jackson are worth repeating:
“The wrongs which we seek to condemn and punish have been so CALCULATED, so MALIGNANT, and so DEVASTATING, that civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored, because it cannot survive their being repeated. That four great nations, flushed with victory and stung with injury stay the hand of vengeance and voluntarily submit their captive enemies to the judgment of the law is one of the most significant tributes that Power has ever paid to Reason.”
Joao Rozo says
Like the Gestapo, the Islamic State jihadists willingly entered into this world of rape & murder .. and continue to do so, in the Middle East & around the world .. our governments need to answer for their lethargy .. many of them are finding out through the ballot box .. alas too late !!
Rodney Stark says
With WWII German criminals still being found around the world, terrorists will be just as difficult to find and charge. If Any Country has terrorists that can be identified, Military Courts should be anxious, Not Afraid to judge them
I like the idea of building gallows right outside the court room and carrying out the hanging of Terrorists. It should be as such for All terrorists. Their only desire is to kill alll non-muslim peoples.
This Is Murder, Period.

Bel Trew ,Middle Eastern correspondent for the Independent echoes the usual leftist viewpoint in the below article.
Her opinion is that to try foreign ISIS members in Syria and Iraq –where their crimes were committed — would result in more radicalization. As to whom would be radicalized, she didn’t say, but I’m guessing it would be Muslims, as ISIS only recruits Muslims.

Oh, hey, maybe the Germans have been watching how successful OUR “Catch-And-Release” program has worked for us at our border with Mexico. The fact that 90% of those released INSIDE our country never return to show up for a hearing is a non-started. Hell, it works quite well for our Democrats who see the potential of hundreds of thousands of New Liberal Democrat VOTERS! Besides that, Merkel and the EU have solidly STATED that without an influx of WORKERS to supplant all the retiring GERMAN WORKERS will ensure the ongoing magnificence of the EU members. Well, so what if 75% of ALL crimes, especially sexual assault crimes are, indeed, committed by these “New Citizens, “who, BTW, WILL be VOTING! And, the FACT that 65% to 75% of these brilliantly educated, talented hard working loving folks are unemployed AND unemployable doesn’t seem to matter worth a rat’s ass!
Abraham says
After taking away all the guns from innocent good standing and well intended people, their politicians then ushered in a group of Muslims who believe in killing all infidels and making everyone else a second class citizen. That’s why we can never allow the US government to take away our ability to defend ourselves and our nation against the type of corruption we are now finding everywhere the Obama administration was in power.
That Muslim president wanted to set us up for failure and not taking away our guns was his biggest regret.
We must educate the millenials about history and include the failures of Socialism, dangers of Islam, the history of both political parties which are very slanted to the Rupublicans for doing what is right and justified. How many millenials know that every single Democrat voted against the Civil Rights Act and without president Lincoln a Republican we might not have ended slavery. The Demonicrats are the party of the KKK and came from the south and continue to control the African American communities with lies and do nothing to protect them in all the crappy cities that Demonicrats run.
All the worst cities are controlled by the Demonicrats.

Germans should sue Germany, too : all those who were beaten , raped and those who left behind by killed people – by Muslims !

Pet Charles says
I am not one to cry “racism” but ever there is a case that screams “racism” it is Europe’s response to ISIS returnees. The same Europeans who will hunt down and prosecute 90 year old Nazis for atrocities they allegedly committed against other (White) Europeans, all of a sudden become paralyzed to act when European ISIS returnees commit atrocities against non Europeans. This is who social justice warriors are. The people in Sweden, Germany, France, UK, etc who are virtue signalling with Islam are MORE racist than the so called right wing they try to silence under “hate speech”, etc.
Anonymous says
The persons joigning the Islamic State’s main motivation seems to me to be the opportunities to kill, dominate the powerless and abuse people at will. The “game” has to end. Islam has to be declared prohibited. There are no excuses for any part of Islam. Islam institutionalises frustration and balances it with institutionalised destructive emotional release in relationships, within marriage, in the family, the community, the country, at the international. Islam never created a positive thing. That is also an institutionalised ” Islamic tradition”.
I cannot write Yazidi in the same paragraph as this thing I mentioned that we all should extract from the face of the earth like a rotten tooth and destroy it completely.

So sad that this should be necessary. Good for the Yazidis, though.

Canada: “Committee erupts after Tory MP tells Muslim witness he ‘should be ashamed'”
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/ashamed-cooper-suri-committee-chaos-1.5156624
Jayell says
There seems to be something intrinsically wrong with the concept of a ‘muslim witness’ because the characteristic islamic dishonesty renders them ipso facto unreliable. As soon as a person admits to being a muslim his/her testimony should be immediately discounted as invalid. Likewise, swearing in on the Qu’ran defeats the object of swearing in.
Lu says
Similarly, swearing on Quran as a part of the US Congress ceremonial nomination of representatives should be an absolute no-no. The only book they should honor and consequently swear on is our Constitution.
Frederick King says
I agree. Swearing n a koran is swearing to the koran.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
“swearing on Quran as a part of the US Congress ceremonial nomination of representatives should be an absolute no-no.”
Especially in the light of this particular Koran being purchase by Jefferson in order that he might understand his ENEMY better! I wonder how many of your intellectually lazy fellow Americans are aware of this fact.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
“As soon as a person admits to being a muslim his/her testimony should be immediately discounted as invalid.”
You and I know that their testimony is untrustworthy but we are in the minority. Only in a world where most people are knowledgable and well informed would this be generally understood.
But we presently live in a world where most make false assumptions and virtue signal. These people are intellectually lazy and are moral weather-vanes. They do not deserve the affluence this democracy affords them. They need to be driven from all power and influence.
Frederick King says
I remember watching these people getting rescued by helicopters form sime hill over there. ISIS creatures were in hot pursuit. I remember the news reporter, and American helping pull these people in , while under fire.. Every ISIS member connected to harming or trying to harm any of this group should be hanged in public. The Yazidis were victims of sex slavery, bought and sold, rape, murder, torture, and more at the hands of ISIS. These people are considered devil worshippers and worse by ISIS, and many if not most muslims in general. I hope Germany wakes up after losing all of these lawsuits. They should be ashamed.

True, Frederick. And that hill was Mount Sinjar–the ancestral home of the Yezidi.

Regarding Germany advocating Muslim immigration into Europe: Has anybody considered the fact that after their defeat in WWII, they had to abandon openly attacking Jews? What better way to attack them than to flood Europe with millions of Muslims whose religion dictates that Jews should be killed at every opportunity. Of course, they kill each other (Sunni vs. Shiite) and all unbelievers, but they particularly enjoy killing Jews. I’m not Jewish by the way.
