Does anyone know what will happen to her inside? Is it just a case of locking her up, and letting her out again after three years if she hasn't blotted her copybook?

Sentencing her at Birmingham Crown Court, Mr Justice Inman said she showed no remorse and knew that her son would ultimately be used as an IS fighter.
This makes a bit more sense:The judge's summing up makes no sense to me.
But she came back. She brought her son back.
That comment only makes sense if she had been caught in Syria and brought back against her will. She wasn't.

Just heard her father in a brief "exclusive" interview on LBC, outside the court I think, angrily claiming she was set-up by MI5 and 6 because she would not co-operate with them. He basically claimed that this was because she had nothing to offer them. He also claimed that 80% of witnesses failed to turn up at court, and that an appeal will surely follow.
Yes, then she changed her mind. I don't see any acknowledgement of that here."Most alarmingly you took your toddler son to Syria knowing how he would be used - his future would be as an IS fighter.
"You embraced your role in providing fighters of the future. You allowed him to be photographed next to an AK47."
The pictures were used to promote further recruitment as propaganda, she herself went as a female to be able to produce a new generation for their long Islamist struggle. She aided them, but for a short time.
Yes, then she changed her mind. I don't see any acknowledgement of that here.

ViolentPanda might be able to shed some light.
AFAIK she should be put on some de-radicalization programme, in reality the money won't be available so she'll just rot for a few years and come out bitter and angry. Go UK.
From what I've read, she came back because conditions out there were shit (she couldn't hack being bombed and living without running water) not because she had some ideological change of mind.Yes, then she changed her mind. I don't see any acknowledgement of that here.
The sentence for membership of the IRA is usually along the same lines - four years or so. But that's for people caught as current, active members. She had left. She effectively resigned membership - IS doesn't, afaik, have formal membership processes like the IRA, so she informally joined then informally left.she deserves nothing, she is just as much a part of IS as the cunts who decapitate peple with kitchen knives or burn others alive in cages.

Not what is reported here.From what I've read, she came back because conditions out there were shit (she couldn't hack being bombed and living without running water) not because she had some ideological change of mind.
In the witness box she gave an extraordinary account of her time in Raqqa and claimed she managed to escape after becoming disillusioned and frightened, running across the border with her young son.
I wasn't meaning to lessen it by saying that, merely being accurate - she left voluntarily. I can't find equivalents for former members of the IRA who left without directly committing any terrorist offence. I'm guessing the reason I can't find them is that they are not prosecuted.An informal member of IS recently:
Judge Melbourne Inman made it clear he held reservations about her version of events. “You told lie after lie to the police and in court,” he said.

It's not a straightforward case of her doing time,and then "she's paid her debt to society". Blair-era legal changes mean that once she's done her time (if given any) she'll be put on a short leash, probably with communications restrictions and surveillance, until the intelligence people are satisfied she's not active.
More likely is they'll make at least one attempt to "turn" her. As someone who's had a lot of publicity, ISIS wouldn't let her near any prime intelligence, but even an asset just repeating chatter, is an asset that helps firm up that chatter.
I would guess that is because they co-operated with the British State, had they not I would imagine they could expect to be nutted pretty quickly.
Tbf the provos were a lot more picky you couldnt just get on acar ferry wearing a celtic top and expect to be given an armalite

However, the judge did accept that Shakil had returned after having a “change of heart” – which he said was in her favour.
Being jailed for doing something stupid?
I like your comparison, spot on.Yeah, people who do stupid stuff like robbing Brinks Matt should be tagged
imagine their surprise when instead of poppies they are expected to go into battle with things that kill people.I think posing children in ways that indicate you're lining them up to become a fighter is shocking behaviour.
