    What direct act of aggression have IS commuted against Ireland? This would be a minimum requirement for treason.

    No they haven't unless precedent means one of the last countries to do it.

    Actually they did when the government reached out to move her from a camp in Syria to Turkey to repatriate her, she should have been left to justice of Syria/Iraq whoever needed to seek justice.

    Also by bringing her back there is a high risk for her radicalizing others.

    She was never held captive or even in an area that was under the control of Syria or Iraq.

    Muslim and Isis are not the same thing. Plenty of Muslims in Ireland go around in hijabs and cause no trouble.

    That doesn't mean I have sympathy for Lisa Smith.

    Sounds like we need to remove the right to religious freedom as a fundamental right from the constitution.


    I'm surprised by the number of extreme communist policies advocated by some posters on here. I didn't think people were that far to the left. There were even some advocating internment a few days ago.

    They are correct.

    The "Islamic State" does not actually exist.
    RTÉ should refer to the state concept as The Calipate which is a different concept altogether from the concept of state. The Calipate is a kind of a moving entity and it geographically exists where ISIS followers reside AND CONTROL. The followers do recognize state boundaries

    SF are mainstream and the Greens are noble in their intentions but they can fúck off.

    ISIS have defined Ireland as a target country https://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-news/ireland-branded-europes-weakest-link-6899801

    there is evidence of hostility from ISIS towards Ireland, as a member of that organisation Lisa would be a conspirator in this.

    IS follows have nothing to do with a caliphate it's just another term they use to try to legitimise their actions.
    I don't think we should adopt such ideas that they want to spread.

    There is no offence of membership of a terrorist organization in Ireland.
    Treason? Definitely not.

    She was in a camp controlled by the Kurds in an area occupied by the Kurds.

    It's been a pretty big story in the news lately.

    The Kurds wanted her gone.

    If she is going to want to radicalize others she doesn't have to be next near to them to it.

    That's the opinion of an ex soldier, and the article is almost 2 years old. Calm down.

    She is quite entitled to be a Muslim, freedom of religion, thankfully exist here.
    Isis, there's something that could be looked into, but it's fairly doubtful they can prove that. Even if they can, there's no proof she committed any crime

    It could be argued that IS are the true conservatives of Islam. They are definitely following the litteral meaning of the Islamic text.

    There seems to be a misconception that anyone that went to join the caliphate were fighters and executioners.

    They weren't, they needed women to form the caliphate, they also bizarrely as it sounds needed people from all sorts of trades, it was quite mundane for some time inside the caliphate.

    Honest question. Would you be happy if Ireland started using a system of internment with no evidence or legitimate trial?

    If joining a terrorist organization isn't worthy of being a crime in your world then God help us all.

    You don't believe she was a member of IS?

    Decent country, wow.

    Being a member of a terrorist organisation won't get you death penalty in the US and proving treason is quite difficult unless you attempt a coup or something
