Those numbers are from June.

The Austrian Interior Ministry now puts the figure at 130 jihadists that have gone to Syria/Iraq to fight for IS. Just recently, police arrested 9 Chechens (asylum seekers) +1 yesterday on the Austrian border who wanted to travel to Syria.

130 + the 10 arrested would put Austria much more on top of that list of Western countries.

Hopefully most of them will die, but certainly some are going to try and go ......"home" again.  That's going to be a problem.

I understand the US doesn't get the same kind of Muslim that France, UK and the rest of the western states get....but even considering that, the US numbers are stupidly small.

Yes, some might manage to come back - but it's hard to actually get back in via air because their passports are on a black list.

The few who come back legally (because they are citizens) will likely be put under supervision by the Federal Agency for State Protection and Counter Terrorism or simply arrested.

Besides, it's rather hard here to get weapons like handguns or even explosives, which means a terrorist attack is unlikely.

More teenie girls intercepted by parents/police before they went to Syria/Iraq:

http://www.thelocal.at/20140909/two-austrian-schoolgirls-stopped-en-route-to-syria

It is now estimated by the Interior Ministry that a total of 12 teenie girls have already gone to Syria or attempted, the most notable ones are these 2 in April (no word heard from them since).

Another prominent one is a Vienna-girl of Polish-Catholic origin, who converted to Islam and went to Syria auf nimmerwiedersehen ...

It is estimated that out of the 130-150 Austrians who went to Syria/Iraq, 20-30 were women.

According to the "Economist", only Sweden has a higher number of female jihadis ...

Well, this won't be over soon ...

Could become complicated as well, once the US/Co. strike urban areas and the ISlamo-Fascists use human shields (women/children) and civilian casualties rise.

Austria joins US-led coalition against ISIS

Austria’s Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz has announced that Austria is now part of the US-led coalition against Islamic State (Isis) militants.

Kurz said that Austria’s participation will be political, but not military and that as a neutral country it will provide mainly humanitarian assistance to persecuted religious minorities such as Christians and Yazidis in Iraq and Syria.

He pointed out that Muslim countries were also part of the alliance and that it was not a religious conflict but “a struggle against extremists who are mostly killing Muslims”.

He made his remarks before leaving for a United Nations General Assembly in New York, which will table a resolution to make the recruitment and financing of Isis fighters illegal.

Austria’s neutrality means it cannot participate in any air strikes in Iraq or Syria, nor allow foreign fighter jets to travel through its airspace.

Amazing ISIS documentary by VICE News:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUjHb4C7b94

With Western journalists being beheaded left and right, these guys walked straight into Raqqa and got a tour from the Islamic State itself.

I have already posted this a few pages back, but nobody cared ...

I hate that term. It's blatantly inaccurate and just indicates the person who uses it has no clue what the hell fascism is beyond an epithet for subjectively bad stuff.

Islamofascists. It is what they are and always will be.

Baghdadi might be "critically wounded" says Al Arabiya, or even dead says Al-Hadath:
