Which is a high falutin' way of saying we stand in the other guy's shoes.

I see. Empathy, as in "I feel your pain."

I will post articles in this thread about cults especially Islamic cults.

A good article about recruiting procedures and possible countermeasures:

As a cult expert, Hassan suggests offering radicalized youth the same treatment he offers his clients. He says the universal way to free someone from a cult's clutch is to dissipate their phobias that by leaving, they are betraying God or Allah. “A lot of people get into these groups following a dream or following an ideal. If people can see that the dream is not going to be a part of this group movement, that would help somebody reevaluate,” Hassan says.

Weddady, meanwhile, says that while the support of the West is necessary, “to a larger extent, this is a Muslim problem that only Muslims can solve.” He says his moral compass ultimately led him down a path very different from some young Muslims in the world today.
