There have been several cases in the news recently of teen girls from the US/UK trying to fly overseas to join ISIS. Especially given their treatment of women in particular... what is the appeal? Are they falling in puppy love with the recruiters?

Why are teen girls trying to join ISIS?
"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard RavenhillTags: None

AFAIK, no. There was a couple of Austrian girls who went off to ISIS to get married but they were of Bosnian muslim origin."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12

So were the girls in Denver. I have no idea about the ones in England the other day (I just heard about it on the radio on the way home from work)."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right!

Many young men, prizing the adventure and glory, naturally pursue the time-honoured masculine activity of fighting in a foreign land. Young women naturally react to such masculinity with lust. But lust is unlikely sufficient in most cases; the clicher is most probably the excuse of 'doing the righteous thing by serving Allah'. Unsupervised by their parents, these girls are groomed and seduced through social media, resulting in those as young as 14 years of age joining the Islamic State.
As Darth has noted, Ben Sira's wisdom is apropos as ever.
