If a person belongs to an organization that advocates, supports, or participates in acts of terrorism with the objective of destabilizing a democratic government, supporting a foreign power or forcing religious conversion, should that person retain citizen or residency rights in a Western democracy? Antartica is not owned by any state so it could become a home for stateless people if no other country will take them. There are precedents in which Nazis have been stripped of citizenship.

The phrase "if no other country will take them" seems to have been missed. ie, the person would not be allowed to stay in the country he or she was deported from, but could go freely to any country that would accept him or her. If he or she is unacceptable to every country, then Antartica is the option. This is banishment, not a penal colony. The person is free to live anywhere except those countrie(s) that consider him or her a security threat and deny entry.
