British-born Shamima Begum, who went to Syria as a schoolgirl to join ISIS, should not be allowed to return to Britain to challenge the government taking away her citizenship because she poses a security risk, the UK Supreme Court rules.

But the country's top court overturned that decision, meaning that although she can still pursue her appeal against the decision to take away her citizenship, she cannot do that in Britain.

The British government had argued that the intelligence agencies concluded those who aligned with ISIS posed a serious current risk to national security. "If a vital public interest — in this case, the safety of the public — makes it impossible for a case to be fairly heard, then the courts cannot ordinarily hear it," the Supreme Court judges concluded.

Begum's case has been the subject of a heated debate in Britain, pitting those who say she forsook her right to citizenship by traveling to join ISIS against those who argue she should not be left stateless but rather face trial in Britain.

Trirunt Can we do that to the insurrectionists and the Republicans who supported such a disgrace?

What's the ulterior motive behind a schoolgirl who decided to join ISIS and why she wants to return back is beyond anyone except her. Who knows, maybe she's trained for something which might put people's lives at risk. The world is losing a lot of innocent people to terrorism.

Bye

I agree. Fuck her. Should have thought of that before joining ISIS.

Most are recruited young and indoctrined. Should we be judging all children who had no choice like the nazis 🤔🤔🤔

Good, she made her choice.

Good

For years, UK and other European countries ignored radicals, because they never thought these policies wud harm them in future. Now the chickens are coming home to roost. She was radicalized in UK, not in BD. You idiots, own the mess you have created. BD is not your dumpster.

Duh!

Follow 4 follow back

Never let them in to Europe again!

YES

So let's stop our Human Rights campaigns for Uhigars in China , Rohinjas in Myanmar, Dissidents in Russia ......it's exactly what Communism and hard left Socialism say......the Needs of the State take priority over the Human Rights of a Citizen. The British Supreme Court words.

You have police, don't you? And jails?

Unfortunately we live with the consequences of our mistakes. The question however is whether she would have been stripped of her citizenship had she been an Ann or Mary?

The woman was an enforcer who tried to get other women to join the jihadist movement. She was no girl!

If she returns she should not be allowed out of custody until the end of that trial. She is absolutely a threat. A 15 year old may be a child but their government is not obligated to fix a mistake she made as a child. She's an adult now.

REkt!

well, where's she going to go? And her kids? There's hundreds of people like them, and cutting them loose won't solve any problems. I just know that this is not a way to deradicalise her and her kids.

I'm glad I am not being judged for the things I did when I was 15-years old. Can you imagine? SMDH!

If she takes a Billion dollars with her, British PM will receive her at the airport. It’s because Britain welcomes Black money in whatever way it comes, to run its economy.

As a citizen of Myanmar, I announce Myanmar Police Force and Myanmar Military as terrorist Organisations. ‼️ MilkTeaAlliance RejectTheMilitaryCoupMyanmar whatshappeningnowinmyanmar

Here's an example of using another person or entity to send a message by a masked poster. Note the graphic image is the message in this one. This person thinks that threatening violence is how you get what you want.

Is it not treason to denounce your country.

A security threat is not negotiable. And neither is blackmail or coercion. You chose that outcome. You cant walk it back.
