I agree, of course she could be both, and most criminals are victims at once stage in their lives and that is frequently part of the reason they go on to commit crimes. None of us have expert knowledge on this case, which I agree on the face of it does seem curious.

But you make out that she has faced no justice; but the security services provided evidence to a decision that the legal system has now backed up. I'm not one of these people who thinks the courts cannot be criticised, because that in itself is part of democracy too, but I think you have to at least respect the process and decisions of people in full possession of the facts.

She said in 2019 she didn't regret travelling to join IS. That's a full two years after one of their followers blew up a load of young children in Manchester.

There are many injustices in the world and she sure as hell isn't top of my list. On this one I am happy to trust the judicial process.
