US Urges 'Plan B' for Islamic State Fighters, Families in Syria

Jeff Seldin

   WASHINGTON - The United States and other countries hoping to deal the
   Islamic State terror group an enduring defeat risk failure by ignoring
   the tens of thousands of fighters, women and children stuck in prisons
   or camps across northeastern Syria, key U.S. officials warn.

   For months, the U.S. has been urging countries, especially its Western
   allies, to take back and prosecute citizens who left to fight with IS,
   also known as ISIS or Daesh. They have also called up upon them to
   repatriate family members who traveled to or were born into the terror
   group's self-declared caliphate.
   But those calls have largely gone unheeded. And now U.S. officials are
   growing more vocal, publicly echoing warnings that the prisons and
   camps are serving as an incubator for the terror group.
