| Deradicalisation efforts | |
| 2017-01-03 | |
Maybe the place to start "deradicalisation" would be in the madrassehs that are openly run by outfits like Lashkar-e-Jhangvi?
..the Pak offensive against Qaeda in Pakistain and the Pak Taliban in North Wazoo. The name refers to the sword of the Prophet (PTUI!)... and ’intelligence-based operations’, respectively. However, some men learn by reading. A few learn by observation. The rest have to pee on the electric fence for themselves... efforts must also be made to prevent young minds from falling into the trap of extremism, and to help them find a way back into the mainstream once they forsake the way of the gun. Pakistain has experimented with deradicalisation programmes, most notably in Swat, where the army-led effort has produced mixed results. Now, as reported in this paper yesterday, Sindh also wants to initiate a deradicalisation project. Officials of the provincial Counter Terrorism Department have said that they plan on deradicalising and rehabilitating around 300 Death Eaters lodged in Sindh’s prisons. Help would be sought from professional psychologists to understand the factors that drew these individuals towards militancy. The officials went on to say that two youngsters who were on their way to Syria to fight for the bad boy Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group renounced militancy through the efforts of the Sindh CTD. It is well known that bad boy criminal masterminds prey upon the weak and the poor, luring them towards bad boy violence with a mix of religious rhetoric and worldly enticements. Certainly, youngsters who had been brainwashed and who now renounce militancy deserve a second chance. However, some men learn by reading. A few learn by observation. The rest have to pee on the electric fence for themselves... we must approach deradicalisation efforts with caution. For example, with the aforementioned programme in Swat, there is little transparency and it is not known quite how successful the effort really has been, with rumours that some of the programme’s graduates have returned to militancy. Even with militancy reform programmes in other countries, such as Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... , there is a considerable number of supposedly ’reformed’ Death Eaters that return to violence once reintegrated into society. Perhaps the state -- with the help of law enforcers and psychologists -- should investigate which Death Eaters have been drawn towards extremism due to financial and socio-economic reasons, and which fighters are hard-core ideological supporters of bad boy causes. In the case of the latter, deradicalisation efforts would have little, if any, effect. Coming back to Sindh’s efforts, while the deradicalisation plan may seem like a good idea, the provincial authorities must also pay attention to more basic efforts, such as building high-security prisons for ’hard-core’ bad boys, as that has yet to get off the drawing board. | |

| #1 they plan on deradicalising and rehabilitating around 300 Death Eaters lodged in Sindh’s prisons Perhaps 'Cult Deprogramming' will work, as a bullet alternative. It's worked so well for sexual identity reassignment. |
