I would have thought it fairly obvious that "terrorists" do not see themselves as such so "self-confessed terrorists" do not actually exist.
I think that one aspect is being overlooked and that is the religious appeal of "the caliphate" to the ultra-orthodox Muslims, one of whom was Begum when she went to Syria.

What terrified me was British girl shrugging off severed heads rolling around in the back yard.
Pretty sure the folk moaning about fair trials etc, are the same that moan about austerity and our Government clamping down in all the wrong areas........
I’m trying to figure out what you mean. You’re saying you’ve identified a link between people who support human rights and people who disapprove of government policy that punishes (often kills as discussed extensively itt) the poor and vulnerable while favouring the very wealthiest? I hope you weren’t working on that for long, it’s not exactly Sherlock Holmes.
You know exactly what I mean, but as ever, your efforts to try and prove yourself,smarter(probably), funnier( not a chance), and more compassionate(misplaced) override everything.
I am all for fair trials, but not for wasting money when the evidence is clear cut and for all to see.
Man filmed running kid over on crossing. Sounds pretty cut and dry. Could be a multitude of reasons. Give him a fair trial. Correct.
Girl who openly tells the world she wants to leave the country because she hates it and believes in the cause of terrorism, then wants to come home, and in interviews isn't sorry for what she saw and was involved with, is a no brained.
It's a waste of money that can be used to bridge the austerity gap. Deep down, you know it, but have to twist it round to try and wriggle out of it because you know I'm right.
Let's deprive some kid of his cancer treatment so we can waste tens of thousands on a trial we all know is wrong and the outcome obvious.
Nice ethics KKK
That’s embarrassing. Our system of justice is one of the last things we should abandon. You support the government that is responsible for austerity, I know it is an entirely unnecessary political weapon and oppose it at every opportunity.
It’s just a simple fact that you don’t know the evidence in the Begum case, none of us do and that’s why it should be tested at trial. If she’s guilty of crimes by all means punish her. Let’s not get distracted by hysterical people who get scared and irrational every time they hear the word ‘terrorist’.
Proving again you dont read what I said.
I mentioned before their threat doesn't bother me. It doesnt inhibit my travelling etc.
What evidence do you need in the Begum case to say that she should be welcomed back then smartarse?
Don't disappear for the day, and hope it gets lost in the the next 24 hours.
What can a court case prove to you that we don't already know?
Did you read the papers when she left? Her statements and those of her friends? Her interviews when trying to come back?
Tell me what you think a trial will prove please. "her innocence" wont wash.
Excuse me, what? So what has been reported in the media should decide someone's guilt or not? Our legal system is based on needing to prove someone's guild before a court of law, it's not a perfect system but it's a hell of a lot better than what you've just suggested. This isn't about Begum and shouldn't be about her, it's about the integrity of our legal system. Once you start saying it shouldn't apply to someone because it won't prove anything, you start deciding where that line will be drawn, and it's a line that should never exist if our freedom is worth anything.

In our justice system, someone is an alleged criminal until he's been tried even if the judge and jury watched them commit the crime.
Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. It might be inconvenient in some circumstances, but it's the only way.
You can argue as much as you like, but to have any credibility you have tell me who should have the absolute power to decide what constitutes a CLEAR CUT crime and be able to convict without trial.
Adz has answered this to a limited extent, he does.
I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

We don’t know the evidence. It’s very clear that you don’t really understand what evidence is. “Did you read the papers when she left?” I wouldn’t like to be the person who brought that evidence before a court. :-)
STILL not answered the question.
What can she say that will make her innocent in your eyes, and then justify not wasting tax payers money, KKK?
To my mind, dont we already have things like the CPS, or the equivalent of the District Attourny, that makes decisions about what should be brought to court and what shouldn't?
A decision to not let her back in was made. Lets stand by it.

I guess you’d need to say what crime you suspect. I certainly don’t think she’s innocent of the charges she’d likely face but I certainly don’t know if she is/isn’t. It’s very unimportant whether she’s innocent or not in my eyes. I guess being found innocent in a trial would be good enough but I can’t emphasise enough how irrelevant my judgement is on a matter like this. Your judgement is equally unimportant/irrelevant.
The decision was illegal, it will probably be overturned.

The legal aid she's getting is precisely to decide whether it was legal to not let her back in.
Whether she's clearly guilty of anything is irrelevant - she could already be legally tried and found guilty but having her citizenship removed could still be illegal.
The idea is that everyone and everything, including the government have to abide by the law.
Or do you think it would be a good idea if the government were always allowed to proclaim whatever they wanted to be true and there not be any mechanism to challenge it or overturn it?

Also in support of Kush - it's really not ever been made clear exactly what law she's
obviously
guilty of.
From a lay mans point of view, I'd say she probably is guilty of breaking a law or some laws, but if you're going to convict people (with or without a trial as you see fit) you still usually need to be able to point to the actual piece of legislation that says what law (or laws) they've broken.
Apart from anything else - people might get sentenced too lightly if you don't know for sure all the laws they've broken.
As well as the argument that we need the justice system to work properly so that innocent people don't get punished - we also need it to work properly so that guilty people get punished enough.

In our justice system, someone is an alleged criminal until he's been tried even if the judge and jury watched them commit the crime.
Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. It might be inconvenient in some circumstances, but it's the only way.
You can argue as much as you like, but to have any credibility you have tell me who should have the absolute power to decide what constitutes a CLEAR CUT crime and be able to convict without trial.
Adz has answered this to a limited extent, he does.
I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean.
I was suggesting that he seems to think he is well placed to adjudicate on such matters.
Oh I see.
What Iwould like is a straightforward answer from Adz himself. Who should have the power to pronounce guilt without trial?

JMW alludes to a good point, in that to avoid confusion, we should probably specify whether we are taking about revocation of citizenship or guilt with regard to an as yet unspecified crime.
