18. Bring them home.

Sep 2014

Bring them home. Lock them up.
No sensible government would allow them to return back home after fighting for ISIS, at least without isolating them for a LONG time in a secure location. I would keep them locked up until ISIS is Gone. They've made choices, and not very good ones. Too bad if they aren't trusted now.

To me, they took a one-way ticket! n/t RKP5637 Sep 2014 #1
