Experiment With Terrorist Rehabilitation Falls Flat

An American effort to deradicalize a Somali refugee convicted of plotting to join ISIS has fallen flat.

Surprise, surprise, right?

You can take the man out of ISIS, but not the ISIS out of the man, it seems.

A U.S. federal judge in Minnesota had initially enrolled one of six refugees facing the ISIS-tied charges into a deradicalization program.

But it didn’t work so well, it seems.

From WND (thanks to Jihad Watch):

“After six Somali refugees were convicted of plotting to board planes and join ISIS in Syria, a U.S. federal judge in Minnesota decided to enroll one of them in an experimental terrorist rehabilitation program.

“The program was developed in Europe and operates on the principles of the “countering violent extremism” or CVE, which is also part of the global, United Nations-supported Strong Cities Network.

“Rather than going to prison, Abdullahi Mohamed Yusuf, 21, was sentenced in November to a 20-year supervised release. He was granted time served and sent to live in a halfway house. He receives counseling, reports to a probation officer and wears an ankle monitor but is otherwise free to come and go.

“But less than six months from the time he was released, Yusuf has already hit a road block.

“He was returned to federal custody last week for allegedly failing a polygraph test and watching a documentary about ISIS in Europe.

“According to a report by a U.S. probation officer, Yusuf failed a polygraph while under questioning, then admitted to watching CNN’s “ISIS: Behind the Mask,” a film about a Belgian ISIS soldier that was on TV April 18 at his halfway house, the Star-Tribune reported.”

You can take the man out of ISIS — but not the ISIS out of the man, it seems.

Unless islam can be removed from their brains nothing can be changed. Lobotamies for all, at least that could pacify them.

There is a “one shot cures all” rehabilitation program, available from several sources, Winchester, Remington, Colt, Smith and Wesson to name a few

“Somali refugees”, more likely than not destined for FREE food, clothing, housing, medical, utilities and educational grants (they will NEVER take advantage of) in multi-generational perpetuity, have nothing better to do than join terrorist organizations, eh?

Clearly describes why “refugee” policy in the USA is not a “humanitarian effort”, but exploitation of resources better used elsewhere…

I agree to let them go but, and this is the important part, never ever let them return ever!

There is no such thing as RADICAL ISLAM…Islam is what it is …You are submitting to it when you pay ( Sharia Tax ) for these programs …You are paying them to be Non- Violent…They are laughing their Muzzie azz off at the US ..
We are fools if you think otherwise …
There is a cheap cure available for this sickness ….308 Remington HP BT …to the forehead ….works every time …
PUCK ISLAM …..

Rehabilitation generally fails, because, similar to addiction, the views and behavior are hardwired into the brain by that age. The smart criminals play along with it, game the system, and fake it until they are released, but are liable to slip back into their old modes of behavior at the slightest stimulus. Like an ex-smoker who thinks he can smoke just one cigarette, but then finds himself hooked again, for life. Or the ex-alcoholic who thinks he can take just one drink, but after one *sip*, finds all self-control gone, and goes on a bender that very first night.

As part of this stupid ‘CVE’ program, Abdullahi should have been required to carry out his probation terms at the judge’s house. And any and all violations this refugee made, the judge would have to answer for, since it was such a ‘great program.’

a correction to your informative article: instead of ‘man’ your line should read; “While you can take the Muslim out of ISIS — you can not take the ISIS out of the Muslim.”

The refugee resettlement companies still continue to import Somalis, at taxpayer expense. Yet, Somalia is not at war, and they are not refugees.
