If they arrested her, interrogated her and expelled her from the country, I think I would have trouble arguing with them.
If there was strong evidence that she assisted them in any way, or knew about it before hand and said nothing I don't think I could complain if they locked her up and threw away the key without a trial.
If you are not a US citizen you need to be careful who you associate with, and when it comes to national security the State Department is going to have to lean towards the safe side. I think I would understand that.

OK, so they're taking her land to raise money to stop terrorism. Or to build a training center for Navy Seals. Or a billboard promoting national security. Now it's related to terrorism, so it's OK?
Are you working off some sort of principle about which rights are inalienable, etc., or are you just saying that as far as you're concerned, anything goes when it comes to national security?
