At the point Lisa Smith joined them there were videos online a couple of years at that stage of them throwing people of buildings for their sexuality and burning people alive in cages. They actively went out of their way to give people the most appalling torturous deaths. You can be guaranteed all of us on boards who didn't agree with them would meet a ghastly end if it came to it. She knew what she was getting into. Absolutely 110% she should be left stateless. It sets a strong precedent. I do not want to see her walking the streets of Ireland whatsoever.

If it's illegal under international law, I'm sure we could come to some arrangement with the likes of Angola or Libya to arrange alternative citizenship for the individual.

And we have allowed the US intelligence forces to operate on Irish soil, with very weak objections, that were quickly forgotten. She's a member of an international terrorist organisation. She might claim to have left but I suspect it's like the Mafia. Once in, never completely out. She should be tried as a terrorist, and exiled to some other country that is willing to settle the matter.

It would just become some weird game of passing as many criminals as you can off on other countries. Do you not think countries have any responsibility for their citizens?

Radical Islam ( or indeed any Islam) but the radical version's especially, are completely anti-democratic. Unless the govt comes up with a solution, legally and democratically, there is not a lot that can be done with Lisa.( except 24/7 monitoring etc ) The same situation would not exist in an Islamic Country.
A serving officer of the British Royal Marines declared: "It (internment) has, in fact, increased terrorist activity, perhaps boosted IRA recruitment, polarised further the Catholic and Protestant communities and reduced the ranks of the much needed Catholic moderates"

Anti-Democratic forces, the Left won the election so the military & Fascist forces launched a coup that started a bloody civil war. A similar sort of pattern happened in many South & Central American countries in the 50's, 60's, 70's, like in Chile, Guatemala, Brazil etc... Democratic forces like Allende's Chile win elections, military coup launched, military juanta installed. Do you know what ended Democracy in Russia? Anti-Democratic forces, the Left won the election so the Bolshevik forces launched a coup that started a bloody civil war. Do you know what ended Democracy in Germany? Power was handed to Anti-Democratic forces who passed laws to end Democracy there, similar situation in Italy were power was handed to Fascists. Do you know what strenghtend Democracy in Britain after WW2 when Democracy was very shaky? The passing of more Democratic laws by Attlee's Government. Thatcher crushing local government & Trade Unions in the 80's was a worrying sign. I can't think of one case in point were being more Democratic destroyed Democracy. And I don't know how it would weaken Democracy in this case either, as far as I know Lisa Smith doesn't lead a large Fascist party in Ireland that is poised to gain a majority in the Dail at the next election, and isn't a commander of any part of the Irish Army that could launch a coup at any moment. I think people on the right would secretly like a terrorist attack to happen i Ireland carried out by Muslims, so they can turn around and say "haha we told you so, stupid SJW's", because everything they are suggesting would only increase terrorist activity. I'm not arguing that a terrorist attack isn't possible it is, but lumping all Muslims together as terrorists & claim their incapable of being Democratic only helps to alienate Muslims in this country & increases the likehood of terrorists attacking Ireland. Britain learned this the hard way in the 70's when they stuck only Catholic people in concentration camps & only shot at Catholic civilians. So these anti-Democratic measures will only help boost the cause of ISIS & other Muslim extremists so they can turn around & say "look, I told you these people were all bigots who hate Muslims". And people like Choudary would jump at the chance to exploit it.
