and danieljoins me now— there are no easy answers to this issue? it is an almost impossible problem and no one seems to want to grasp it. no government wants to take back men who went out to join islamic state group because of the rush they impose in return. thousands of these prisoners are originally from syria, anyway. there has been a lot of talk about setting up an international court in the region but nobody has actually done it. the practicalities are quite hard. and now all governments are distracted by the coronavirus pandemic. but doing nothing is becoming increasingly difficult, allowing men to die in terrible conditions just because they went off to join a reprehensible group doesn't sound like the western idea of a rules —based international order. events have been taking place in the bosnian town of srebrenica to mark 25 years since the massacre of 8,000 muslim men and boys
