I don't think there's any question about that, she willingly joined ISIS. The only question is the extent of her crimes.

I'm fine with determining if she's a citizen. I'm equally fine with ensuring her basic rights aren't violated. I'm also equally fine with not providing her with a US passport as we have no obligation to do so. Actions have consequences, and there aren't many (any?) choices worse than joining ISIS.
