I have long written on the inherent failures of jihad deradicalization programs. They are doomed to failure because they do not address the root cause, the motive for holy war – Islamic texts and teachings.
These counter terror and “deradicalization” programs are nothing more than charters for surrender. Of all the absurd and ludicrous responses by leftist elites to the jihad threat, “deradicalization” ranks as the most inane. How can a program claim to address the ideological motive behind acts of war without addressing the ideology? These absurd programs are based on the idea that Islam is a Religion of Peace, and that jihad terrorists are misunderstanding it. But this is false, so the programs are a failure.
The only deradicalization center in France, for example, was closed down because of the high failure rate, which was foredoomed since it was never going to deal with motive.

Deal with motive, end jihad recruitment and preaching in prisons, and demand that the mosques stop preaching jihad and submit to being monitored? This program is foredoomed as well.
“London Bridge killer penned letter in jail asking for deradicalisation course to be a ‘good British citizen,'” ITV News, November 30, 2019:
The London Bridge killer penned a letter from his jail cell asking to take part in a deradicalisation course to become “a good British citizen”, ITV News can reveal.
Usman Khan asked for help from his lawyer in October 2012 after his conviction for plotting to blow up the London Stock Exchange as a member of an al Qaida-inspired group.
The 28-year-old was released on licence last year after serving half of his 16-year sentence but was able to embark on a deadly stabbing spree in central London on Friday, killing a man and a woman and injuring three others.
But during his prison sentence, he wrote a letter from his HMP Belmarsh prison cell, claiming he was “immature” when he committed the offence and now wanted to “learn Islam and its teachings” through a “deradicalidation [sic] course”.
In the letter obtained by ITV News, Khan wrote: “I would like to do such a course so I can prove to the authorities, my family and soicity (sic) in general that I don’t carry the views I had before my arrest and also I can prove that at the time I was immature, and now I am much more mature and want to live my life as a good Muslim and also a good citizen of Britain.”
The attacker was attending a prisoner rehabilitation event organised by the University of Cambridge, where he “threatened to blow up” Fishmongers’ Hall, where the conference was taking place, at around 2pm….

They preferred this convicted terrorist than tommy robinson. That reminds me of the story when barabbas was preferred than Jesus. The history of bigotry has repeated itself. Unbelievable.

Actually a bit off topic, but how on earth was this thing, based on the image shown, allowed to enter the UK? If they don’t look like us, and we look like the Brits, they don’t get in.

Outlaw Islam … tell the Muzzies they’re going to h.e.dbl hockey sticks … and tell the Muslim world to Go Bleep Themselves …
What’s odd is NOT that Left-tards won’t buy into this plan … after all they hate us … and their goal is to do nothing less than steal and destroy every good thing about civilization … even if they have to burn it to the ground.
What’s odd is so many of Red-pilled non-Leftists don’t understand the only way to deal with Islam is to defeat Islam.

The London Bridge attacker was a student and personal friend of Anjem Choudary, the notorious Islamist hate preacher.
https://www.newenglishreview.org/blog_direct_link.cfm?blog_id=68914
Usman Khan, a convicted terrorist released less than seven years into a 16-year prison sentence for a plot to bomb the London Stock Exchange, had Anjem Choudary’s private mobile phone number stored on his phone at the time of his initial arrest, the Henry Jackson Society has found.
Khan was one of a series of Al-Muhajiroun connected terrorists to be released over a six-month period beginning in the Autumn of 2018. He was known to have attended a series of Al-Muhajiroun protests and street stalls in the Midlands area prior to his arrest.

Another great example of the GREAT LIARS that islam and the moslems are all about. They can NEVER EVER BE TRUSTED. They hate the TRUTH and we see them attacking each and every day now. It would be good to post all the evil things BHO is doing now that connects him to islam.

I can recommend a few “deradicalization” courses. And their very cheap. A .45 cal bullet, the guillotine, or the rendering plant. All very efficient, except the rendering plant will offer some benefits as that meat can be packed up and sold to other mooslimes.

The problem is Radical Liberalism!
“My son, Jack, who was killed in this attack, would not wish his death to be used as the pretext for more draconian sentences or for detaining people unnecessarily.”

The gormless leftists/Liberals’ , pro-Jihad mandate is treasonous. If they, too, are not taken to task for treason and aiding-and-abetting Jihad Terrorism, the West is toast (being polite). The UK is not the only nation kissing the you know what of Islam but the entirety of the West’s faux-Democracies. Indeed, to reiterate Dan Knight, Islam should be outlawed if not totally eradicated.

Usman Khan, 28, was a convicted Muslim terrorist who was released from prison in December 2018 – less than seven years into a 16-year sentence for a Muslim plot to bomb the London Stock Exchange..
Catch and release is bad for future victims..

It’s been more than fourteen years since 7/7 2005 and innocent people in the UK are still being killed or injured by British based Jihadists because of this outdated concept of the courts and political class treating those people sworn to do the killing as the same as everyone else despite all the evidence to the contrary.
This act of what I call “clinging to ignorance while calling it virtue” will I fear rob others of their lives unless and until people grow up and realise that some living among us all are unreformably evil and cannot under any circumstances be trusted.
The political class and courts owe us all an apology and practical solution.

Probably because they refuse to accept the TRUTH about criminal-filthy nazi-islam. Denial is what the Democrats are all about.

tell them if they do not want to be deported to their country of origin that they must wipe their butts with pages from a koran for 6 weeks and piss on a page each time they take a leak and the act must be supervised by a muslim plus a Jew or Christian. Then there is a slim chance that they have been successfully changed.

Are these ‘authorities’ stupid or complicit? Muslims lie to the kuffar, they have to; fundamental Muslims lie more, Muslim terrorists do nothing but lie.

DECEIT is the one big weapon in the arsenal of Islam, to defeat infidels. Wake up stupid British, and European’s, they will lie, trick, commit fraud, anything to achieve their goal.
