I am beginning to feel so much sympathy for her and her plight....this girl, is still just that. A young girl that will have seen so much brutality as her mind and brain continues to age during her teens...so people say she has no regrets, no sorrow or does not show remorse....


Perhaps after 5 years she has been dehuminised by the autrocities or mere opression she may have witnessed at such a young age and for such a long time....her brain must have went into spasm to be honest...leaving here and her cosy duvet....to there and God knows what....


Also her poor parents, they must be distraught. They will have believed their daughter who to them just disappeared...is actually alive...

Get her home and give her help, then see where her heads at.

But she said seeing a severed head for the first time didn't faze her, she said life there was just as she expected, she said she has no regrets about going there. Ok she was groomed at 15 but it's now four years later, she's an adult and despite witnessing all sorts of terrible things she hasn't changed her view. She has no remorse and takes no responsibility for the fact she helped the cause of one of the most barbaric regimes in history.

I imagine its pretty easy to forget your feelings in the past after five years of that ****e...but your opinion is part of the fascination of this case.



Edit...we are all part of one of the most barbaric regimes of all time...not that long ago either in the scale of things.

All of us? My family didn't make a penny from the Empire, and to drag that up is budding the waters of this case. The part of my family that was here during the time of Empire was living in squalor, so excuse me Parm, if I don't weep and wring my hands for this girl.

Her baby's father is Dutch. Maybe they will take her. We have no obligation to take her back. And I hope we don't,

You don't need excused for your opinions, imo.


And neither do I...I can't help how I feel about this and I am a little surprised at myself actually...but I can't get past the fact I see her a s groomed child rather than a dangerous terrorist type.

I don't get to share the pride of the invention of the vaccine, so I won't share the shame or take the punishment of other things that happened in the past.

I agree with that. And what's more... who's to say the British Empire was one of the most barbaric regimes. More barbaric than Hitler? Stalin? Pol Pot? Papa Doc? Franco, Pinochet... and all the other monsters who took but didn't give? Not trying to say the British Empire was a summer camp, but there were plenty of more barbaric regimes. And none of them bloomed into an organisation that does as much good as the Commonwealth. Even countries who were never under British rule choose to join.
