It's kind of a tricky legal situation. If they're European citizens, can you really stop them from coming back from Syria? What if they claim they didn't do anything illegal there?

People don't lose their rights just because they travel to the Middle East...

Well, the UK government are trying to cancel people's citizenship if they go to Syria to fight for IS. But you're right, it's questionable, and it might be a legal hassle to do anything about this.
