“In terms of actually being a part of the Islamic State, I don’t regret that. The fact that I’m a prisoner doesn’t mean that I change my beliefs. It doesn’t mean that I change my position with regards to my religion, with regards to the Sharia.”
Canadian authorities would be fools to let him back in, as he would just work for Sharia, at very least, in Canada. But they are fools, so they probably will let him back in.
“No regret: Captured Canadian ISIS fighter wants to come home — but not if he will be judged by Canadian law,” Sky Statement, September 28, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Before he was captured by Syrian Kurdish forces in February, Canadian Mohammed Khalifa went from being a cog in the ranks of ISIS to its English language voice.
Khalifa, 35, who goes by his ISIS nom de guerre Abu Ridwan, says he would like to return to Canada provided he can bring his non-Canadian wife and their three children.
“This area is no doubt a dangerous area. I’d want to take my family out of there,” Abu Ridwan toldThe [sic] Fifth Estatein [sic] an interview from a prison in northern Syria.
But if his return means he will likely face justice in a Canadian court, Abu Ridwan said he would rather remain locked up where he is.
“In terms of going back to be judged, then no.”…
For Abu Ridwan, the desire to live in an Islamic state took him out of Canada six years ago. In the summer of 2013, Abu Ridwan had graduated from Toronto’s Seneca College and had a job with a tech company when he decided to leave it all behind to be a part of the emerging Islamic State in Syria and Iraq.
“I was happy coming to a place where we have an Islamic state and we could live in an Islamic state and implement the Sharia law. I was content with what I had and the life I was living.”
Within a few months, he had joined the ranks of ISIS and pledged his allegiance to its leader, Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi….
Abu Ridwan toldThe [sic] Fifth Estatethat [sic] after spending months translating and reading ISIS news items, he was given a script for a propaganda video by ISIS commanders in September 2014.
“They said we want you to read this and so I recorded it, and they took it and they asked for some changes. I rerecorded some parts, and that was it,” Abu Ridwan said.
But when ISIS released thatFlames [sic] of Warvideo on social media platforms, the threats it contained against Western countries caused a panic among security agencies in Canada, the United States and Europe.
Terrorism researcher Amarnath Amarasingam has interviewed more than 50 Canadian foreign fighters and describesFlames [sic] of Waras [sic] ISIS’s stamp on how it wanted the world to perceive it.
“The video was horrific. It showed a series of executions and set the stage of what we knew of ISIS going forward in terms of its brutality and its perverse creativity in how it chose to execute so-called spies and people that it considered to be enemies of the state,” said Amarasingam, an assistant professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ont….
Abu Ridwan toldThe [sic] Fifth Estatethat [sic] his role in theFlames [sic] of Warwas [sic] limited to narrating the video and that he did not participate in any executions.
But intelligence analyst Jeff Weyers believes Abu Ridwan might be the masked executioner in the video.
A masked man can be seen presiding over Syrian soldiers digging their own graves before being shot in the back of the head, their bodies tumbling into the freshly dug graves.
Weyers suspects that Abu Ridwan is diminishing his role to avoid prosecution for mass murder.
“A lot of the Western fighters are trying to diminish their responsibility — I am a chef, I am a cook, I am a driver. Well, there are a lot of chefs, cooks and drivers right now and not a whole lot of fighters that helped the Islamic State take over all this territory,” Weyers said….
“In terms of actually being a part of the Islamic State, I don’t regret that,” said Abu Ridwan.
“The fact that I’m a prisoner doesn’t mean that I change my beliefs. It doesn’t mean that I change my position with regards to my religion, with regards to the Sharia.”…

They are already fools!

Rudolf Hess also never repented of his role in creating war crimes and crimes against humanity. He died unrepentant. So did many other Nazis.
Mohammed Khalifa (whose name is composed of two shudderingly noxious components) will not be allowed back into Canada while Jihadi ‘BlackDude’ Justin is campaigning for re-election.
He is ‘content’ with head-chopping, hand-chopping, raping women and slaughtering captives of war. He is a complete savage and there are MANY MORE LIKE HIM WALKING THE STREETS OF CANADA.
If you want more WALKING TIMEBOMBS like Mohammed Khalifa next to you in the subways, buses, trains and airplanes in Canada, then VOTE FOR Jihadi ‘BlackDude’ Justin.
Savvy Kafir says
The way things are going in Canada, this jihadi asshole will probably be the mayor of Toronto soon.

I think Justine may be heading for early retirement, along with the rest of the Liberal Party—NO PARTY STATUS.
Infidel says
Khalifa should quickly get back to Canada before Justin is outta office. At least that way, once Justin is out, he can don an ISIS uniform and accompany Khalifa back to Syria. He can then translate all ISIS works into French

If Canada is not stupid then this piece of trash will not be able to enter.
mortimer says
Keya, many Canadian voters are not only shallow, but completely uninformed about Islam, blindly believing that Islam is a ‘race’ when it is in fact an ideology.
gravenimage says
You’d think that even those ignorant about Islam should know that *ISIS* is bad.

As a Canadian, I can PROMISE you, we gotta lotta “stupid” up here.

The day after Germany’s surrender in WWII there wasn’t anyone in Germany who’d ever been a Nazi. However there had been some 50,000,000 former ski instructors in Switzerland who had just returned home.
mortimer says
Funny you should say that … Jihadi Justin Trudeau is a former snow-board instructor. He must be qualified to run a country and bring in jihadis. (sarc/off) Btw, Jihadi Justin prefers ‘Shinola’ shoe polish. (sarc/off)

No, I didn’t do anything during the war. I only used to wash and polish Hitler’s car and walk his dog. Me and two million others were on that detail.

Is that cross-shaped band-aid on his forehead covering a bloody zebiba from too much enthusiastic praying?

My guess is that someone had to force this fanatic to surrender. It appears to be a post-capture photo.

This piece of excrement can stay where he is. So can his family.
James Lincoln says
If Canada brings this captured ISIS fighter back into their country, even to be tried in a Canadian court of law, they are sending the wrong message.
Even the prison in northern Syria is too good for him…
Angemon says
Well, this is new – the usual story is that they prefer to be judged under their country of origin’s law…
gravenimage says
He only recognizes Shari’ah law.
somehistory says
He’ s saying he still feels he same way, and that means if he and his fellow terrorists were still in control, he would be killing people. So, why should he get to have anything he wants?
Besides, the law is, at least in the States, if someone is even just “riding along’ in a car with bank robbers when they rob the bank, that one is just as guilty as the guys who do the act.
If Canada has a similar law, or if Syria has that law, then he is guilty of murder many times over.
And the Supreme Law says he is guilty of murder. “He who lives by the sword, shall die by the sword.”
gravenimage says
Besides, he didn’t just wind up in the Islamic State by accident.

“Sure come on back to Canada,” Jihadi Justin will say, “ need somewhere to stay, no problem I will give you $10,000,000, which is the going rate for terrorists in Canada under a Trudeau Liberal government.” Trudeau.
“Welcome back, Diversity is our strength” Trudeau.
I say … Rot in Hell you murdering bastard and take your wife with you.
Crusades Were Right says
I wonder if Canada’s chief ex-“racist” Justin “Aladdin” Trudeau is calculating just how many “not-racist-anymore” points he can accumulate by letting Chummy back?
FYI says
i wonder if Justin is now identifying as a black muslim male given his penchant for dressing up with afro wigs and blacking up..on THREE.. separate occasions it seems.
I mean ONCE would be bad enough but THREE times is hilarious.
Perhaps Justin the Entertainer might like to put on a performance for us in the name of “peoplekind”{his PC term for mankind}”Diversity” and “cultural enrichment” of…
….the Black and White Lefty Liberals Minstrel Show
maybe he will sing “the banana boat song” for us{he apparently sang this at a “talent” show}

tim gallagher says
This is an interesting report because all the other ISIS fighters, who want to get back into western countries, have lied and said , oh, they have changed their minds, etc, ( they grovel a bit and lie) whereas this guy probably is telling the truth. He is either too arrogant to tell the usual lies or is just unbelievably dumb, too dumb to tell the usual lies. If he does end up back in Canada, after his unrepentant words, then Canada definitely has a big problem.
gravenimage says
Islamic State propagandist has no regrets, yet wants to return to Canada, but not to be judged by Canadian law
……………
Canada shouldn’t let *any* of these Jihadists back in–but this thug is especially awful. He certainly cannot pretend that he was some naive kid who didn’t know what ISIS was all about.
