How can anyone, at 15 years old, felt so alienated by society that she lost all sense of right and wrong, while watching those beheading videos? Lets face it, the parents would and certainly should've had a better idea of what that kid was watching, thinking, feeling. That is their job, much more so that Javid. Why didn't they report her to the authorities before it all got out of hand?So you do believe that terrorists are born, not made?
People are alienated first before they resort to public complaints, demonstrations or further, more violent acts against the 'system'.
Prevent the alienation and you prevent the subsequent consequences.
Failure to prevent alienation means that you need to employ other measures, prevent further radicalisation, utilise efficient and effective passport control systems, develop better international cooperation in recognising and returning potential terrorists.
There are a multiplicity of measures that could be taken. Even whether 15 year olds should be allowed to travel without parental consent. (consent and with accompaniment are different)
It is completely unreasonable to blame the fact this kid decided to join a terrorist group on the UK. She wasn't on the radar - perhaps if her parents had reported her, then things may have been different.
