A 16-year-old French girl was arrested at Nice’s airport in France on Saturday, as authorities suspected she was on her way to join an Islamic extremist group in Syria, France’s interior ministry said.

Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said in a statement that a 20-year-old man was arrested over the weekend on suspicion he purchased the girl’s ticket to Turkey from where she would have presumably crossed into Syria. Cazeneuve said the girl’s parents were unaware of her intentions, the Los Angeles Times reported.

The French news agency AFP reported that her detention is just one of a string of similar incidents in recent weeks involving French girls volunteering for the Islamic State and other militant groups.

I wonder how many Westerners take up arms against the West and join ISIS, Al-Qaeda, etc. Some are second generation, while others are recent converts to Islam. They are traitors.

They are traitors.
Can't be a traitor if your allegiance was never to your country. The parents might not have "known" but I suspect they aren't that strongly against it.
