They were study circles of female Islamists who encourage girls to travel to Syria, preach hate against the West and against Jews and celebrate ISIS fighters and atrocities. That is certainly what is involved in radicalisation.

Right, I don't think the summation was very accurate then, I'm still not comfortable with the media expose. Did it not say 2 weeks after filming ended it was the Paris bombings? Would any investigation actioned not still be ongoing if there was any real threat?

I presume that filming ended because she was caught and the extremists cut off all contact with her. I expect the authorities are taking the footage very seriously and are investigating these women.

I know it ended that way I saw it, my query was why they have released the footage so quick?
What is the motive, to compound headlines like the 1 in 5 stat in the sun?

Do you think that Channel 4 has an agenda in whipping up hate against Muslims?

Are you saying they should have pulled the footage? If female Muslims are radicalising young girls and encouraging them to travel to Syria to join ISIS is that something that should be tiptoed around?

I don't know the Sun seem to relish doing it, I think it should be dealt with by the relevant authorities not broadcast almost immediatly following a terrorist incident. I think it could have the potential to incite racial tension and that is not what the country needs right now.

I understand what you mean. The Sun is an obscenity and shouldn't be stirring up tension like it plainly is. However, we need everyone to be aware of the scale of the problem wrt radicalisation so I think the TV program was useful. There is a clear difference in how the information is presented between the 2 cases.

We all need to be educated at this point not force fed hate.
