There's a call this morning for British IS fighters to be killed. As much as I oppose capital punishment, in this instance I would agree. What else can be done with them ? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-41717394

Double standards usually take priority in such matters. Those who think euthanasia should be made legal, and consider it the right solution for others !?
Yet the same would be prepared for their grandchildren to witness heads on spikes around Arrow park roundabout , as happened on that now famous roundabout in Raqqa and have no feeling of anything other but 'love' to the perpetrators !!
Very strange.

The way I see it, is they converted to Islam, they were happy to do so, therefore let Islam deal with their ending.
The Christian bunny will be pulled out of the hat somewhere along the line. In this instance Christian values should not interfere into a non Christian ethics . ( and interference only happens when it appeals to the non Christians trying to score brownie points). I also thing that the Church and the Archbishop should keep out of it. There is nothing to say that these fighters will not encourage others to do the same again,either by their incarceration or through their families and contacts.

The thing is if we where going to kill them isn't this what they want? I myself think if they are happy to kill themselves will the threat of being killed stop them? I may be on my own but I say pump their veins with bacon fat

I'm trying to remember if desertion is still a capital offence in the UK forces, I don't remember it being repealed. That would be double standards if its still in force.
I believe all capital offences were taken off the Statute Book in 1998. Offences like Mutiny On The High Seas, Arson In A Naval Dockyard etc. The statute book is civilian law, Court Martials are Service Law which I wasn't sure had been changed. Anyway, it appears it has changed with the worst penalties being an unlimited fine or five years in the slammer.
