@RLx31 you leave to fight for a cause that is against 'your country', you lose your rights as a citizen of that country, seems pretty simple.
Simple and wrong. I don't agree that people should be made stateless. Besides, what if you're fighting the "good fight"?
Against your own country? That makes no sense.
The only alternative IMO is to let her come back in and spend life in prison for Treason.
No. She shouldn't be given the opportunity to radicalise inmates or waste our resources, let's face it she'd be in luxury compared to where she is now.

Yeah, I was thinking that, what if someone left to fight for a pro Assad militia against ISIS - they're fighting for the 'enemy' against the other 'enemy'.
What part of "against your country" was so hard to grasp there?
I only read @antipodean's post and responded to the "good fight" question so didn't try to grasp "against your country" at all.

I'd suggest that if they wanted to make a difference for their own country (UK for example) they join the forces here instead. If their interests are not in favour of their own country and supporting whichever enemy then they don't belong here.
I really believe that the UK needs too be brave and make this decision, we've been to flimsy for too long and maybe some shocking decisions need to be made now for the greater good of their own citizens who aren't running off joining terrorist groups.
The US look to try to be in step with the UK on this

I'll give you a clue; Saefkow-Jacob-Bästlein Organization, Ehrenfeld Group, Free France, Resistance, etc.

I'd be happy with that. Charge her with a relevant crime and act like a civilised society.

Erm, how does that relate to fighting for Assad against ISIS? At any rate it's a bit strange to compare resistance groups in dictatorships and occupied countries with stable western democracies.

@antipodean yeah nah, if those cnuts that have left NZ to fight FOR ISIS against Kiwi troops, Allies and interests want to come back, they can fuck right off, this act is enough to show they do not value thier citizenship; passport should be cancelled, go live in the desert!
Why should our tax payer pay $100k a year to house them in prison?

England wasn't for Assad was it? It was in the position of wanting both sides to lose.
Calls to make people stateless are an insane response to one of your citizens doing something you don't like. It should be up to the individual if they wish to renounce citizenship. I also don't agree with States arbitrarily removing citizenship from people who are natural born citizens just because there's somewhere else they might be able to seek citizenship from.
Once you head down that path there will invariably be calls to apply it to some other moral panic.

Because they're New Zealanders who committed a crime?

Well I think we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. As far as I'm concerned, in this day and age and if you live in a stable western democracy you forfeit your right to citizenship in that country if you take up arms or provide support through other means for a country or movement that seeks to harm or destroy that country. Screw the taxpayer having to foot the bill for them to rot in jail for life. If they can't be let out into the community then why let them into the country if you don't have to.

Didn't realise I needed to spell it out. She was in another sovereign country that was engaged in civil war. Not in East London making pipe bombs.

Treason: The crime of betraying ones country
IMO this is far different to robbing a petrol station.
If a NZ citizen commited an act of terror in the name of ISIS in NZ (and didnt kill themselves in the act) then by all means, lock em away, throw away the key, or, give them the option for a 1 way trip to Somalia or some other shithole.
I'm with @Rancid-Schnitzel we'll just have to agree to disagree, you aint gonna change my view, like me with you.
