Obviously I loathe and detest Daesh but I do have sympathy for her and others like her. It's surely more nuanced than the tabloids make it seem and having daughters of that age I really don’t think Begum and her peers are fully culpable.
That said, I didn't think the YPG/YPJ/SDF were up for capital punishment?
sorry for my late reply. Begum became a symbol (don't forget that she justified ISIS even after her arrest in the camp) and I think she will pay for it which explain this potential YPG radical punishment
I guess you're right Maria. I just wonder if fifteen year old kids (male or female) should be expected to make excellent decisions every time. A difficult and sad tale.
Too true.
Thanks again Maria, I always enjoy your stuff and that you're willing to engage about it. All the best.
Thank you! And you're my best reader!
Entirely subjective! :)

I agree with you but unfortunately, the reasons of history often overwhelm individual ones
