Did she? I mean legally, did she join a terrorist organisation? Can you prove it? Define "joined"?
If you can prove it, what are the consequences? Strip her of her passport and citizenship? Is that legal? Don't let her back in? Where does she go when the Syrians don't want her?
So many questions and nuances that people conveniently ignore.

Direct Quote -
“Mostly it was a normal life in Raqqa, every now and then bombing and stuff,” she said. “But when I saw my first severed head in a bin it didn’t faze me at all. It was from a captured fighter seized on the battlefield, an enemy of Islam.”
Indefensible.
What crime do you want to prosecute her for here? Being a horrible ****?
A chap in Dublin recently filmed a severed head after a car crash and shared it around the internet for kicks.
That wasn't a very nice thing to do but hardly deserving of stripping somebody of their citizenship or throwing them out of the country.
I don't want her stripped of a passport or citizenship. I just don't want her walking the streets of Britain or Europe for that matter.
You're either for due process or you aren't.
If you're against due process, that opens up, to quote somebody somewhere, "an appalling vista".
I am not. If she makes her way home. I'd expect her to be arrested, questioned and only released if she was willing to reject ISIS and it terrorism. Which she shows no signs of.
I cannot and will not support terrorism. I find it shocking the amount on this board who do.
Who on this board supports terrorism?
You've just made clear you support making up your own arbitrary laws and the operation of a literal thought police.
That's actual fascism.
Lol - thought police, fascism.
She's a Jihadi bride. She's openly admitted this.
As far as I'm aware the term "Jihadi bride" doesn't carry any legal weight.
Perhaps you thought Bobby Sands' wife should have been locked up without trial too?
Having thought police is the very definition of fascism. The right to privately hold any sort of crazy opinion is the mark of a free society.
It's not illegal to
think anything.
One can
think that all Unionists should be exterminated so as to force a united Ireland. That's not illegal.
One can
think that all Catholics should be exterminated so as that there is no prospect of a united Ireland ever happening. That's not illegal.
One could
think that Donald Trump should obliterate Mexico with nuclear weapons. It still wouldn't be illegal.
Wouldn't you agree?
Now, if a person goes around publicly broadcasting these opinions, then it becomes a different matter because there is such a thing as hate speech laws, and rightly so.
But it's not a crime to think
anything.
Publicly broadcasting that you think it should be, as you are doing, amounts to actual fascist extremism - you'd have loved the Gestapo and Stalin's secret police.
