"A deported ISIS recruiter is believed to have been in touch with Lisa Smith before she left for Syria. The Jordanian known as 'Abu Alaa' operated as Irish suicide bomber Khalid Kelly’s link to the terror group’s leaders. In the weeks before her departure, the 38-year-old Dundalk woman is reported to have visited a house in the same area Abu Alaa lived. Chief of the Counter Extremism Project Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler said Smith’s meeting with the handler in Ireland follows an established pattern. He added: 'ISIS had a specific online recruitment strategy. They worked long shifts on a very long-term drawn-out recruitment process. They would isolate people from their real world contacts by telling them, ‘These are bad people, they will lead you down the wrong path’".
