And their father is heartbroken, or so he says:
And if the father is really galled about their journey to Syria for jihadism, he wouldn't have raised them under the Religion of Peace to start with. You reap what you sow.
The father of two Norwegian sisters who said they were leaving to wage jihad in Syria has told the Telegraph of his heartbreak as his daughters have now "been seen" with the rebels.Who cares whether they're fighting on the front line or relegated to a brothel? What matters is that they're servicing vile enemies of civilization, and ultimately endangering themselves.
As he learned of the their plan, the father rushed to the Turkish border with Syria, hoping to catch his daughters, aged 16 and 19 and of Somali origin, before they crossed into the war-torn country.
But late on Thursday night, activists from Azzaz, a town in Syria close to the Turkish border that is controlled by a branch of al-Qaeda, seemingly confirmed the worst, saying they saw two girls matching the sisters’ description “get in a car and drive away towards [the rebel held city] Aleppo”.
“My daughters! You saw my daughters?” said the father, whose identity is not being disclosed for his own safety, his voiced tinged with desperation as he spoke, in the presence of The Telegraph, on the phone with the Syrian activist who delivered the news. [...]
For years this moderate Muslim family lived a calm life in Norway. The girls were both students and seemed happy, he said.
However, in recent months the older sister had become more conservative in her practicing of Islam. She reportedly started to wear a full black niqab, covering her head, body and face in public.
Some local activists in Syria said they feared the girls may have come into online contact with some of the foreign jihadists now fighting in Syria, and been lured by them to “join the jihad”.
“This has happened many times before,” said Ahmed, one local activist in touch with foreign fighters who have come to fight for al-Qaeda in Syria.
“A woman would not be allowed to fight on the front line; for a women they interpret jihad to mean they must cook and clean, and sometimes have intercourse with the fighters”.
And if the father is really galled about their journey to Syria for jihadism, he wouldn't have raised them under the Religion of Peace to start with. You reap what you sow.
