Turkey detains 23 ISIS suspects and 21 children on Syria border. (DS).

Turkish forces have detained 23 suspected ISIS extremists along with 21 children who were trying to illegally cross over from Syria, the army said Sunday.

The suspects, whose nationalities were not disclosed, were captured Saturday as they tried enter the Elbeyli district of Turkey's southern Kilis province.

"Twenty-three people suspected of being Daesh (ISIS) terror group members, together with 21 children, were caught," said the army in a statement, without giving any other details.

Turkey has over the last year been told by its Western allies to urgently step up efforts to stop the flow of extremists across its borders to and from Syria.

The army reported Saturday that it had Friday also captured six ISIS suspects, along with eight children, who were trying to cross illegally from Syria to Turkey in the same area. Hmmm........No word if those children are actually 'Caliphate cubs'? These 'Caliphate cubs' are my biggest fear as we are not prepared for such a scenario, better to prevent than to cure.

In 2014, at least 23,000 unaccompanied minors applied for asylum in Europe, and while estimates vary, aid agencies say as much as 7 percent of the 700,000 refugees who have applied for asylum in Europe this year are unaccompanied minors. That amounts to around 49,000.

From January to October 2015, over 23,000 unaccompanied and separated children had sought asylum in Sweden – the top destination for UASC in Europe – more than did in the entire EU last year. The majority are adolescent males

Imran Khan: "Muslim leaders fail to explain pain we feel when Prophet is mocked."

Imran Khan: "Muslim leaders fail to explain pain we feel when Prophet is mocked."(TZ).The leader of Pakistan's Movement for Justice Party (PTI), Imran Khan, told Today's Zaman in an exclusive interview, “It is up to the Muslim elite to explain to the Western world how much pain a Muslim feels when the Prophet Muhammad is mocked and made fun of in cartoons.”
He added that “freedom of speech should not be misused to cause pain to 1.3 Billion people.” Commenting on the different way Christians and Muslims interpret religion, he emphasized that Westerners often do not view religion with the same reverence and daily devotion that Muslims do. “In Europe religion does not play a large role in people's life. While in England at university, I saw films making fun of Jesus Christ. They do not treat God and the Prophet as we do. Therefore, they are surprised at the way Muslims react,” he explained.
When asked about his plans if elected prime minister, he recalled the vision of the Pakistani founding fathers for an “Islamic welfare state,” as he called it. “A democratic state that provides for the welfare of its people; a state with rule of law and sovereignty,” he added.
When asked about the killing of Osama bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda, Khan described the action as disrespectful of Pakistani sovereignty and damaging to relations with the US, noting that dignity and respect are necessary components of a successful relationship. He also criticized the US for not putting bin Laden on trial. “Even Nazis were given a trial in Nuremberg. Nazis were responsible for killing millions of people, and 30 percent of them were acquitted at trial. That was the peak of American civilization; they believed in the rule of law and justice.
Here, too, they could have captured bin Laden and put him on trial, but instead they assassinated him. I think countries are considered great civilizations rather than barbarian societies when they follow the due process of law. They should have dealt with bin Laden like they did with Saddam Hussein.”Read the full story here.
