After terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's caliphate was denounced by religious scholars, Lisa Smith told a fellow Muslim: "At least Abu Bakr did something while the rest of us just sit and talk," the Special Criminal Court has heard.

The trial of the former soldier, who denies membership of Islamic State, has been listening to private Facebook messages Ms Smith exchanged with other Muslims before she travelled to Syria in 2015.
