This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

It is already a criminal offence under the Terrorism Act 2000 to belong, or profess to belong, to a proscribed organisation like Daesh in the UK or overseas. We're therefore not sure what further action you want the Government and Parliament to take.

Trials for war crimes are the responsibility of the International Criminal Court (ICC). You can find out more about the ICC here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. If you want the UK Government to ban ISIS fighters from returning to the UK, you may wish to sign this petition instead: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/204079
