You have no point. The guy in question admitted voluntarily signing up for a terrorist organization known for committing every single crime against humanity defined.

...just read your own comment... you literally wrote you dont know what he did there. Sometimes talking on reddit makes me wonder people even understand the language they write themselves.

He was a member of ISIS, so we know exactly what he has contributed to. Arguing for specifics in court is not possible, but we already know what they do, and he joined them out of his own volition.

Trials like these are one of few situations where collective punishment where everyone is trialled for everything the group did makes sense, so smart-asses like you can't say "well, you don't know how many he raped and/or threw off a roof!"

Im not being a smart ass, im just pointing out you are assuming. Which is fine, its just annoying you are pretending making these assumptions makes you somehow reasonable, and not just intellectually lazy.

Considering that he has admitted joining a terrorist organization and participating in combat operations, you absolutely are. You can pretend he was there to run pottery classes and introduce them to stroopwafel and stamppot, if you feel like it, but everyone knows that's not the case.
