  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

More than 400 individuals who fought with the Islamic State terror group in Iraq and Syria have returned to the United Kingdom without facing prosecution, according to a new report by Parliament's Joint Committee on Human Rights.

The committee said no IS (also known as ISIS, ISIL or Daesh) fighters have been successfully prosecuted in the U.K. for war crimes, genocide or crimes against humanity.

The JCHR report, published last week, states that despite the U.K.'s recognition of these crimes — particularly its genocide of the Yazidi community in northern Iraq that began in 2014 — there has been no domestic accountability for these international offenses.
