| Several Canadians Headed to Syria to Join IS |
| 2015-02-27 |
| [AnNahar] At least six young Canadian men and women from Montreal and its suburbs traveled overseas last month to join the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group, local media reported Thursday. Some of them, including two young women, were students at Montreal CEGEP College de Maisonneuve. They flew to Turkey on January 16 with the aim of crossing its border into Syria, the Montreal daily La Presse said. It is unclear if they reached their final destination. The father of one of the young men, fearing his son's downward spiral since taking up religious and Arabic studies, seized his passport. But his son reported it lost and obtained a replacement from authorities. The six are aged 18 to 19 and of Mideast and North African descent. A spokeswoman for Montreal CEGEP College de Maisonneuve confirmed that three of them had attended the high school last semester, but did not know if they knew each other. |

| #4 Whew! At least they didn't join some Eveil Terrorist group like the Tea Party or Boy and Girl Scouts! Or (Allan be praised) go work for the Koch brothers or Mr. Walmart! I'm sure their parents are sleeping peacefully. |
