karbatal Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Thank God for the secret services monitoring these people and catching them. Yesterday two brothers were imprisoned in Spain because they were funding IS. One of them wanted her wife (a public worker) wear a burka! All neighbours were so surprised because just little time ago they were normal people and not radicals at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
