UK Government Finally Prosecutes Returning Syrian Fighter, Who Fought AGAINST Islamic State.

'A nation can survive its fools, & even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known & carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, & he wears their face & their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly & unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.' So said Marcus Tullius Cicero (allegedly).

Cicero lived from 106BC to 43BC & even then it was known that the traitor was a disease. The question is: just how infested with traitors is the British establishment? When one considers the fact that second generation Pakistani Britons, upon returning from slaughter in Syria, in aid of the Islamic State, are being lavished with welfare & social housing, it seems quite telling that the first person to be prosecuted was fighting against these savages, as reported by Sputnik News today:

First British Foreign Fighter Faces UK Courtroom A British man who traveled to Syria to fight against the Daesh terrorist group faced court February 14 in a Westminster Magistrates Court in London, and is expected to be charged with terrorism offences. Former British soldier, Jim Matthews, aged 43 from Bristol in the south of England, is alleged to have taken up arms alongside members of the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YGP) which has been a major actor in the ongoing conflict in Syria.

The case represents the first instance of a returned fighter from Syria being brought to court for their actions. Foreign fighters from many Western countries have ventured to Syria throughout the course of the conflict to fight on the side of armed rebel groups as well as in support of armed Kurdish units that have primarily fought against ISIS. The YPG has stood apart from both the Syrian Government and the various armed rebel militias but has periodically allied and clashed with both sides in the increasingly chaotic war. It has since declared a self-governing region of "Rojava" or "Western Kurdistan" in the north of Syria, which has since led to military incursions by the Turkish army which fears any success for Kurdish national movements in the region due to its own large Kurdish population.
