ISIS terrorists are on the march, and they’re exiting Syria, stage left, for more fertile bombing and killing grounds — namely, Europe.
That’s according to Saddam al-Hamadi, a 26-year-old ISIS operative who was detained by Turkish authorities last month.
He says terrorists are exploiting the fall of Raqqa to travel to the United Kingdom.

Here’s a brief video about the situation:
The Daily Mail has more:
A former Islamic State militant captured after the fall of Raqqa says that jihadist fighters have left Syria intending to travel to Europe to launch attacks.
Saddam al-Hamadi, 26, was arrested by Turkish security forces last month after exploiting an evacuation deal designed to free civilians.
He was detained as he reached the Turkey-Syria border.
But the ex-ISIS fighter has warned that extremists planned to use the chaos of the fall of Raqqa to travel to Europe.
Talking to ITV while in Turkish custody, Al-Hamadi said: ‘They will go overseas to launch terrorist attacks in some areas in Europe.
‘They went to Europe after the withdrawal. Before that they thought the Europeans were infidels, non-believers.
‘They will get out, across Turkey and into Europe where they will launch terrorist attacks and other things.’
The alleged terrorist said he had helped to smuggle new ISIS recruits into the group’s de facto capital, Raqqa.
He said that during eighteen months there, many frontline roles were reserved for foreign fighters, including British recruits.
‘I used to receive people from outside Raqqa – from Idlib and other places.
‘We would wait for them at night and smuggle them inside. They would be trained in military courses and religious courses in the centres.’
He claims to have used his knowledge of smuggling routes into ISIS territory to find a way out.
Al-Hamadi told Turkish interrogators that he was attempting to get to Europe to earn a living for his family in Syria, not to commits acts of terrorism.
A judge is due to hear his case this week.
Counter-terrorism officials in London, Paris and Berlin are concerned that the collapse of Islamic State group’s so-called caliphate will encourage some fighters to launch attacks in Europe.
Last month, Andrew Parker, the director-general of MI5 warned of a dramatic shift in the threat from terrorism in the UK.
‘It’s the highest tempo I have seen in my 34-year career’ he said.
Whitehall officials believe that although few of the 800 British extremists who travelled to Syria have come back, radicalised returners are likely to present a growing threat to Britain’s national security as ISIS territory shrinks in Syria.

Geesh, I tossed my lunch, when seeing the posting of Sarsour’s photo. Sarsour has dead-eyes, she is soulless as are her sponsors, the Democrats and those of the leftist pathogen. The fact that she is walking and spewing anti-Semitic, anti-American, vitriolic sentiments confirms enablement by our nation’s complicit judiciary and politicians and leadership of the progressive subversives.
Regarding the ISIS jihadists returning to carry on the murder and mayhem in the UK; that is a given and always has been. One does not have to be a fortune-teller to foretell the UK has already been overthrown and is submissive to Islam. The capitulation to Islam does not, however, satiate ISIS’ and its allies’ inherent lust for the mass-murder and maiming of non-Muslims. PM May and her comrades in the House of Commons have sold-out Britain in the name of Political Correctness, cowardice, and treachery.

Europe is committing its own suicide by continuing this self-destructive policy. When will their people wake up?

Similar to the way barbarians infiltrated into the Roman Empire, and eventually destroyed it.

This does not really appear to be a possibility, as if they were going to attack there have been enough of these alleged terrorists in western europe for years. They really have done nothing on the military front, however they have completely overwhelmed the government administration causing significant gains for islam at the cost of western european civilization.

Islam is like lets make a deal, only behind the doors is either.
#1 a terrorist who blows up,
#2 A post you are tied to, whipped, and sold as a slave.
#3 A rabid dog bites you and you now have rabies.
I’ll take option 3 any day..

so Trump is right about letting Terrorists / refugees into America…. The Bush and Clinton and Obama backed open borders of the One World Order has destroyed all of Europe… The EU is a gang of One World Order overthrown countries….. The people of the EU needs to fight the criminals in office over there

What a MESS a country comes to when they vote in lieberals and socialist. They have no moral bearings, possess no logic, don’t believe in God.
They, in effect, become like all the countries around them that Yahuah specifically states you must not become like them.
You become PAGANS! Godless and lawless….. Let the slaughter begin, but first the RAPES!!

They are aleady in the States and the lost cause- Western Europe. Only the so-called alt-right governments in Eastern Europe show true common sense and do not not allow the Muslim scum in.
