One of the missing British girls who joined IS Tweeted a picture of her Syrian meal.

Their Twitter accounts: https://twitter.com/BinttAbbas and https://twitter.com/um_ayoub12.

It's only a matter of time before they'll be blocked by Twitter, but for now you can gain a tiny insight into their lives.

I saw that a moment ago.

So many hopes of NSGeneralites dashed. :lol:

I also Youtubed it, and found that most claims of his death dated from five months ago.

Well she was born in Britain so as long as she doesn't have her citizenship revoked she's British.

Sadly true.

But still, better that Saudi Arabia spends it's resources fighting ISIS.
