So we find someone who we highly suspect is a terrorist, just like they did for what was to become the detainees of Guantanamo Bay and we take them to a monkey court and sentence them to death? We take UK born people who fled to Syria to become foot soldiers for ISIS and we shoot them? Yes they committed an unforgivable crime and yes, they were unpatriotic in every sense but they were likely just low ranking gorillas and not something MI5 would consider dangerous terrorists.
I think any uk citizen returning from Syria, who have known links with ISIS, should be detained indefinitely and by indefinitely, I mean until this mess is truly over and done with and the detainee is considered to be safe.
Edited to say: Some of the comments by a certain person here are alarmingly fascist.

Funny that I was thinking exactly the same about many other posts on SD that never seem to hold certain people to account for their actions - people they seem to see as ever the victims!
