'We made a big mistake': Teenage Austrian poster girls for ISIS who moved to Syria to live with jihadis are now pregnant and want to come home... but officials say that will be 'impossible'

• Two teenage girls vanished from homes in Austrian capital Vienna in April
• Pair began to post pictures of themselves online with guns and armed men
• Now it's believed the two regret their decision and want to return home
• Both thought to have been married to jihadists and are now pregnant
  
• Unconfirmed reports one had been killed thought to have been incorrect

The two Austrian teenage girls who became ‘poster girls’ for jihad in Syria are now desperate to come home after getting completely disillusioned with their new lifestyles.

Samra Kesinovic, 17, and her friend Sabina Selimovic, 15, who grew up in the Austrian capital Vienna, were persuaded to head to Syria and take part in the holy war in April.

The girls had started lecturing schoolmates about their lifestyle and when they left Vienna in April they left behind a note telling their parents: 'Don’t look for us. We will serve Allah – and we will die for him'.

Once they arrived it is believed they were married off to local fighters and both the girls are thought to be pregnant.

Police in their homeland Austria say that the girls' social media accounts were taken over and manipulated to broadcast what they now think were fake messages about the life they were having, and using them as poster girls to encourage other young girls to head to Syria.

But security service insiders have told Austrian media that the girls have managed to contact their families to say they have had enough, and want to come home.

However they warn that there is almost now no chance that they will be able to leave their new lives after they became internationally famous and the images were shared all round the world.

Austrian newspaper Oesterreich, which revealed that the girls now wanted to come home, is known to have close connections to those investigating the disappearance of the two girls and is in close contact with their families.

Both sets of parents had been trying to find ways to contact their daughters and it is believed some way of communicating had been established.

The paper said that the girls are currently in the Islamic State controlled city of Rakka in northern Syria, had been married to Chechen fighters upon their arrival in Syria and were both pregnant.

Spokesman for the Interior Ministry, Karl-Heinz Grundboeck, said however that decision may be too late.

He said: 'The main problem is about people coming back to Austria. Once they leave it is almost impossible.'

The news comes despite reports which surfaced last month that one of the girls may have been killed.

However, these reports were never officially confirmed and the Interior Ministry could not ascertain if they were correct.

The motivations of the two Bosnian girls are unclear but before leaving, they had contact with Chechen youths, and visited a mosque in Vienna's second district.

And police also expressed concerns that the pair were inspiring their contemporaries after two other teenage girls were caught attempting to flee the country to join IS ranks.

Little information was given about the copycat pair hoping to join Islamic State apart from the fact that one was 16 and the other was 14 and their parents were apparently from Iraq.

Police now want to find out how they became radicalised, and whether anybody had helped them plan their trip to Syria which was apparently set to take place via Turkey - following the same route as the other two girls.

The pair were caught when the mother of a third friend who was supposed to be travelling with them became suspicious about the amount of luggage her daughter was packing.

As many as 130 people from Austria are now believed to be fighting as jihadists abroad.

More than half of Austrian's jihadists originally come from the Caucasus region and have a valid residence permit in Austria.

Obama hates this version of ‘Imagine’. Here it is, originally written by Doug Giles and performed by Rad Magnum. Make sure you spread this far and wide.

Imagine there’s no America
It’s easy if you try
Just a big Muslim mess
No Stars and Stripes to fly
Imagine all our people
Living as Islamic slaves

Imagine there’s no Country & Western
It isn’t hard to do
No baseball or hot dogs
As far a freedom goes, we’re screwed
Imagine all our pretty girls
Wearing black little sheets

You may say that I’m a doom-n-gloomer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll wake the heck up
And our nation will still be strong

Imagine there’s no possessions
That’s the Muslim plan
No need for Ford or Chevy
A veritable Suckistan
Imagine all our people
Losing all we have

You may say that I’m a doom-n-gloomer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll wake the hell up
And our nation will still be strong

Islam, Jihad, and our Ignorance

Muslims, and especially the learned among them, should spread Shari’a law to the world — that and nothing else. Not laws under the “umbrella of justice, morality, and rights” as understood by the masses. No, the Shari’a of Islam is the foundation. … In fact, Muslims are obligated to raid the lands of the infidels, occupy them, and exchange their system of governance for an Islamic system, barring any practice that contradicts Shari’a from being publicly voiced among the people, as was the case in the dawn of Islam. … They say that our Shari’a does not impose our particular beliefs upon others; this is a false assertion. For it is, in fact, part of our religion to impose our particular beliefs upon others. … Thus whoever refuses the principle of terror[ism] against the enemy also refuses the commandment of Allah the Exalted, the Most High, and His Shari’a.

“Jihad in the cause of Allah” is what the enemy claims it is doing, whether it be the now deceased leader of al-Qaeda or the current leader of ISIS Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. To the exclusion of all other reasons, including “underlying causes” such as economic deprivation, “climate change”, or poverty, the root cause always traces back to Islam itself and the enemy doesn’t just make this claim. What the jihadis say they will do tracks exactly with what they do.

The concepts of jihad given expression by so called “extremists” can be found in the body of Islamic law as defined by recognized authorities and authoritative sources as the legal description has remained consistent across the 1400 year span that incorporates today’s recognized authorities. Defined as “warfare against non-muslims to establish the religion,” the rules of Islamic law pertaining to jihad have remained consistent regardless of whether it was defined by an eighth century Arab, a ninth century Uzebki, a 12th century Spaniard, a 14th century North African, or even a 20th century Arab, Pakistani, Indian, Malaysian or American. “All conformed to the idea that jihad does not end until the world has been made the dar al-Islam,” notes Coughlin, adding “because there is agreement among the scholars on the status of jihad, it belongs to the fixed inner sphere of Islamic law that can never be changed.
